Yes, I found that strange that Robbo is agreeing to this. Robbo can be pro-active provided that in the end it helps the Roosters (even more).

Old Nick is not stupid. Got a man in these talks to “ muddy the water ‘ !

Exactly, the Roosters were the reason the Draft wasn't brought in all those years ago (Terry Hill saga). I think it is bullshit that it is now a Roosters coach that will be part of this consultancy. 17 clubs and the Roosters are front and centre on something that they threatened legal action on before. It would be funny if it wasn't so corrupt. Roosters making sure that the draft doesn't water down their ability to use their money, TPAs, "friends", etc, when chasing players. Putting the fox in charge of the hen house. You can just see how it unfolded....... Hey Nick, everybody's talking DRAFT again. Ok, let's get one of ours in there from the get go to make sure we don't lose our cheating advantage .........
Hey PVL, this is Nick, I've got someone you can use as a consultant for the DRAFT proposal. He is 3 time winning coach and just happens to coach my team. No conflict of interest here as he is the ultimate professional ........ Yada, yada, yada

I would prefer a half

We are heavily targeting Brodie Croft. He wants to return home so his managers are trying to get him out of his '25 SL contract. Hope once that g happens Flanno will pounce before other clubs. Oh yes a a pair of mongrel props with an offload preferably.

Just read this from an England paper.
Leeds Rhinos Sporting director Ian Blease confirmed Croft will be part of Leeds’ squad for the 2025 season, telling the Yorkshire Evening Post: “He does have an NRL clause in his contract, but that has got to be exercised before a certain date. That date has gone way past now, so he won’t be going next year.”

Looks like we wont be able to even contemplate him being on our books before '26. Bummer. Am wondering, if he wanted to return home and had this NRL get out clause, why didnt he make the move before he signed with Leeds 13 months ago.

Hunt was a major mistake, this bloke would game manage rings round that loser.

Why did Hunt sign with us for two years and six months later want out?

One thing though, why wasn't Flanno onto this some months ago? I suppose he really did not know which way Hunt was going to jump.

Anyway, I understand Leeds not letting him go. It would put a big hole in their roster/planning.
