Kevin Naiqama.....GONNNNNNEEEE

^This
Its diminishing returns
to get that extra 10% you have to pay much more than 10% more to get that.
why? because the amount of people who have that extra 10% are less and less
until there is that one guy who is maybe 25% better, but will earn 2-3 times more

im disappointed that Kev is gone, but i cant begrudge him the chance

on boyd though, he has such great experience, origins, tests, grand finals
and you have to pay for experience like that, even if you are the one that developed it
too bad he isnt that game breaker for us atm...
=(

 

[hugzy]

Our game sucks in that no team can keep great depth. An injury to jmac or aqu next year and we r exposed (yes I know we have great backs in reserve but none as good as KV)

 

[CJG 182]

And now Will Smith is gone too..

 

[rnb11]

Will Smith isn't a big loss, the only thing that's ever really stood out about him is his name. Some decent talent in there somewhere but it hasn't been seen much in a long time. He's only in the halves because there's no place for him in our backline and Randell is versatile enough to come off the bench.

 

[Bring it home Knights]

Where is Smith going? From memory he's been playing for a long time for us yes?

 

[rnb11]

Panthers

Yep Newy junior and has come up through the ranks. He's played just about every position in the backline to halves but hasn't ever shone enough to make a position his own. It's never nice to see a junior leave tho.

Panthers

Seriously, what is with Gus' obsession with our players? I know we've signed a lot of players from the Dragons, but no where near as many as Penrith have signed from us.

Surely you jest...Housten, Wes and Kev, Lulia, Boyd, Wicks, Scott, Henry

Vs Wes and Kev, Ciraldo, Smith, Tighe.

+Jeremy Smith for us and Ethan Cook, Sam Anderson and Will Smith to them.

 

[perverse]

+ Cuthbo to us

 

[Johns Magic]

- Newton to them

 

[Frederick]

Not sure you could count newton

Although you can definitely add walsh

 

[Johns Magic]

Yeah Newton's a stretch but so is J Smith I guess.

 

[Frederick]

Yeah also true

 

[Big Tim]

Salary Cap.... working as intended.

 

[Fingerbang]

McKinnon

 

[RHCP]

Yeah definitely Walsh.

And my bad with J Smith, just realised he was via Cronulla rather than straight from Saints.

 

[Frederick]

Kyle O'Donnell went to panthers too

 

[The Showstopper]

Dragons have poached the shite out of Canberra. So the next time they whine about us taking their players remind them Weyman, thompson, dugan, Vidot, harrison, and potentially Sam Williams for the most part were from the Green Machine's excellent academy.

 

[otori]

+Jeremy Smith for us and Ethan Cook, Sam Anderson and Will Smith to them.

Whatever happened to Ethan Cook?
