Fifita to the ????

[lockyno1]

You're the first Broncos fan that I've heard give a wrap to Granville. All the rest think he is rubbish.

He is more creative at least! However he is inconsistent but he is MUCH better than Ennis would be next season!

 

[BranVan3000]

He doesn't know the salary of either player and he's not saying you will sign Fifita. He's referring to what happened when Burgess was signed. Souths fans on here were saying how you guys got him on the cheap but then as soon as he is off contract apparently that frees up space to go after someone like Fifita. Can't have it both ways basically.

He signed a new contract since then, nobody knows for how much

 

[Canard]

His first contract was good value. But then after he starred in the NRL he signed a massive extension as the new tv deal came in. Offering Fifita 700-800 is purely giving him Sam's money.

Remember Bennett's old rule of never giving more than 400k to props. Well in todays cap the equivalent of that is 700k+

People need to get their heads around the new deal. 700k a year over the next few years is like 400k a year 5 years ago.

I say this every thread this comes up, but worth repeating.

That so called Bennett statement must be a myth, as the likes of Backo, Lazarus, Webcke would have all been on contracts that in today's dollars would have been well north of that figure.

But Yeh your salary cap inflation point is what I mentioned on page 1

Doggies love these overrated fatso forwards don't they,Fifita to join his fatso brothers in Williams,Pritchard,Graham,Kasiano

Kool story Doggies

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Lolz at Des Hasler trying to get the biggest forward pack in the history of the NRL thinking his team is playing in an under 8's comp and that they can just simply steamroll everyone

Des Hasler and the Doggies gawnnnn,many wooden spoons coming up

 

[T.S Quint]

Desperate for halves, fullback and outside backs.
Buy a prop.

Genius.

 

[Tooooks]

Shut up you moron.
It means you ran out of luck, i.e you were unlucky.

f**king idiot

Google the origin of the term 'lucked out.'

It's a stupid saying that means the opposite of what it sounds like.

Magnet
Pit with a touch of clooney .

Hope you can get an ointment or something for your pit. A touch of the clooney sounds bad.

 

[POPEYE]

Maybe the Dogs want to replace Graham and Tolman for obvious reasons, Fifita with his head shaved and a beard would fit the Belmore mould and put more bums on seats

Rich, coming from someone who supports the current wooden spooners... who won 2 in a row and have finished in the bottom quarter of the ladder 3 years running.

And yet despite all of that we still have more members than you :lol:

 

[ceagle]

In all seriousness, we know what the Dogs are like when it comes to recruitment and we know that Des is a smart operator. If he signs Fifita then that will be a big indicator that the Dogs squad will be about to go through another major shake up.

We've seen it before a few years back when they liquidated half their squad and bought every good player on the market at the time.

They've also shown that they aren't too shy about approaching contracted players so anything can and probably will happen at Belmore this year, leading into next.

Or maybe Des is majorly overrated from a recruitment sense? Every since he and Cleal left for the Dogs their recruitment has been average at best whilst Manly have continued to smartly recruit as they always have, the man to credit there being Dave Warwick who has spotted most of our talent.

 

[eozsmiles]

dont forget t-rex is probably getting a pretty penny to do SFA

He was only good when he had Toovey and Foran yelling at him for 80 minutes.

 

[man2iel_]

Jimmy Hooper carrying on like he was Mr. Scoop re: the Fifita signing. A little late to the party Jimmy you hack.

Google UK or Australian meaning at the same time.

 

[georgesnmith]

if fifita gets $750,000 JT should get 1.5 and GI 2 million.

all a forward really has to do is run hard and straight.

big money has to go to the spine, and mainly the halves first and foremost.

des is a master coach and i think hes made a massive mistake with this

 

[Billythekid]

Geez he has been terrible today. I think the team who ends up paying 750K+ for him won't get there moneys worth.

 

[NrlCoach]

Played shit and got himself on report for SBW shoulder charge.

 

[Usain Bolt]

More thuggery from Fifita

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Doggies gawnnnnn more early than expected,kool story Dessie boy
