I'd be happy if he signed with the dogs next year, and then helped us to our first premiership this year. I could then walk away from the game happy.


Same here, I doubt ide survive the celebration that would follow anyway!

Mind you, I am starting to come around to the argument that it's not worth spending massive overs just to keep him a Shark, especially since he's a forward.
We could buy a very classy back (are there any on the market next year?) for around two thirds of what we are allegedly offering him. And that's where our real problems are.

It's a tough juggling act (abiding by), the salary cap & keeping the players ya really wanna keep.

Some clubs do it better than others....

A lot of our problem is lack of sponsors. Third party deals are the order of the day it seems.

I hope we do everything possible to keep Fifi, I dont give a fugg that he is a prop.
Aside from his match winning ability which he has proven time and time again. He is a massive draw card for luring sponsors and equally as important, getting fans through the gates.

The guy has worked his ass off for the club, his familiy and himself. Good on him!

I was reliably told that James Graham is signed to the Rabbits (750k per season), hence the interest in Fifita from the Dogs.

I don't think that Fifita to the Rabbits will be the case

How the hell is James Graham worth that much??
The only thing of note he's ever done is bite Billy Slater.

How many talented youngsters would you lose if you pay this prop 3/4 of a million?
Just let him go. Do you think Penrith regret losing Lewis and Jennings?

James Graham lives in Woolooware. Could add some bite to our pack.

Apparently it was just announced on ch9 he's confirmed at the dogs.

Won't announce today.

Tomorrow the week before we play the dogs. Classy.

His twitter will be in block mode.

Just to throw more salt into the mix, I believe that Peter Hiku has also signed with Canterbury.
