Just a thought: Are these done deals ? Set in stone etc ? Just thinking about the Souths/Luke Lewis pre June 30 debacle. Do we have to sit nervously until 1 July to formerly close the deals ? Until then, can we be gazumped by the Dragons or Roosters ? #-o

So what was the problem with Luke Lewis and that Nathan bloke from Raiders. Was it that they just had a hand shake rather than actual contract ? We tried to reverse the Tony Williams announcement as well did we not ?

Poore has been quoted as saying that Jarryd Hayne was one of the main reasons why he signed with us. I dare say Hayne will extend his deal soon.

AM I the only one who thinks that Poore is on much more than he is worth? Put it this way:

He is yet to prove himself without Wayne Bennett (he is probably the reason he is decent)

He made origin because of injuries (Keith Galloway anyone? When he was playing I don;t remember anyone wanting Poore in NSW) This drove up his already inflated value

ladmate if thats the way u feel you can send him back to us!!!

Im a tigers fan, not an eels fan. But if I was i would. He is not worth 350k a season. The dragons did the right thing. Hell, 350k is for the great players, the players who can make Origin and Australia without injuries.

A Petero or a Price is 350k. At this stage, i don't think he is in their class yet. He doesn't even have Wayne Bennett now. God knows how this will effect him. With Wayne Bennett, he is the master at developing young players. DA, not so sure. Don't be suprised if this money is a waste of cap.
