So if Dylan Brown can get $1.3 - $1.4 million for 10 years, what do you guys think Nathan could realistically get if he wanted out of Penrith? (I know he isn’t going anywhere but just curious what you think someone would be prepared to pay him).

Lucky we just slip Ivan extra cash

Rugby Union would have to offer 3million plus as a starting point

Nathan would and should get 2 mil now if he wanted to leave Penrith

im very interested to see what the NRL will rig for PNG to get him there

They won't need to rig anything - the Aust government has already said that players going to PNG will get tax exemptions. That doubles their take home salary instantly.

Not to mention that they'll get their accomodation handled too - so they save on rent/mortgage payments.

I suspect PNG will get their pick of young, unattached talent, but they'll have a really high turnover too. 1-2 year contracts all round. Whether they can attract anyone with young kids is the question.

The defence budget of America.

Had coffee today with Ryley Smith's grandfather. It didn't surprise me when he told me that both Nathan and Ivan sent text messages to Ryley when he got the news that he was to make his FG debut.
