Knights: Stars could follow Bennett

[jenninga]

Take Boyd and Smith, but please dont take Scott. Scott is our best player, keep your filthy hands away.

Funny,we said the same thing couple of years ago

 

[jenninga]

Hodges is 32, Smith and Slater both 31.
Petero was older.
Menzies played till he was 40.
Matt Cooper was 34.
Jeremy Smith is 34.
Willie Mason is 34
Paul Gallen is 32.

That's without trying too hard.
It's an individual thing. There is no 'one rule fits all' here.

While your at it ,I'm 52

We really are speculating on most items at the moment.
I know Mamo's contract expires at end of 2014 but does anyone know Beau Scott's contract status?

Most players have get out clauses in their contracts these days. You can bet you bottom dollar Scoot would have one regarding Bennett being the coach. So if he wants out I'd say there would be not much they could do about it. Depends on wether he's happy up there or not.

Listen junior, don't interrupt.
Younguns should learn their place.

Leeson is only 24 btw. Has 10 good years of Red V left in him.:lol:;-)

I'd like to see Scott back. We've been looking for some mongrel since he left and he brings it. Although I would be happy if he doesn't end up playing in the centres!

All speculation Bennett hasn't even signed yet funny people jumping the gun lol.

Depends on who you believe, some saying it's already a done deal.
Stop being a spoil sport.:sto:

Indeed...what does Como say?!

If Boyd comes I'd be worried of an imbalance of cap $ being in the back line, meaning we may need to economise in the forwards.
I'm assuming Boyd, Morris, Beale, Dugan, Nighty, Widdop & Benji would all be on decent coin.

Boyd
Morris
Runciman
Dugan
Nightingale
Widdop
Marshall

Lose: Beale, Farrell, Green for Boyd. No effect on the forwards salary cap at all.

It's reported that Thompson is leaving at end of season. I hope he stays but if he leaves it is Scott for Thompson. If Thompson stays and Smith follows Bennett as well it could be:

Creagh
Garvey/Rein
Smith
Thompson/Bird
Scott
Merrin

Stockwell
O'Brien
Cooper
De Belin

Lose: Harrison, Ah Mau, Groat, for Smith

Now that is a premiership winning side with Bennett as coach.

Scott, who joined Bennett after winning the 2010 premiership together at St George Illawarra, does not have a get-out clause in his four-year contract. Scott said

That settles that then.

Ah well, nuff said on that then.
Next rumour/scuttlebutt come on down.
