Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and TheRam's whinging XXVIII

[Twizzle]

No wonder he wants to go there, silly money

 

[Hollywood Jesus]

OK, so what do we do with our hooker spot after this year?

We all were extremely happy with Peats when he signed but, really, is he what we need? Is he what a Premiership winning team needs? He's tougher than Batman but he's not all that creative and so may hold back our spine a little.

IDG doesn't figure in our future plans, either, as far as I'm concerned.

So does that leave us with a King/Pritchard combination for '17? Is that one we want to go with our do we look at re-signing Peats?

If it means keeping Paulo I wouldn't re-sign Peats. I'd go with Pritchard and King. When they are all fit I reckon Pritchard shits on all of them. The problem is that all our long term hooking options are injury prone.

According to Stagger, Paulo agreed to term elsewhere some time ago.

I heard different. Someone on the site told me that he wants to stay and that a hefty third party agreement is part of our revised offer.

I guess we'll just have to ask Prozcenko, he knows all apparently

Hopefully Spag isn't organising it.

I very much hope that you are right.

 

[Avenger]

I very much hope that you are right.

I hope the guy who told me is right. I know bugger all about this situation.

 

[hineyrulz]

Hope you are on the money Venge, Paulo is a must keep IMO. He was totally dominant again last night.

Whoa...hey, now - let's not say something we can't take back...

Please let it be true.

Maybe he'd happily stay for less to play alongside Gordon, Foran, Radradra, Jennings, etc.

I think this is a good question.

He definitely needs to go to the next level this season if he is to be guaranteed to be resigned.

Having a full uninjured session will help. He's never played a full season.

So would playing semis. I think he can do it, but I agree he needs to show some more apart from courage and commitment, as admirable as those qualities are.

You get the feeling he is a real off field leader though so I'm sure we would be loath to turn our backs on that

I tend to agree. I also think King may surprise a lot of people if he gets a chance.

 

[Ring Gids]

I think he meant Bartman

 

[Delboy]

Re Paulo, I understand he has been made an offer which his manager nay have signed a LOI, but junior has not signed a contract

There is a lot going on to retain him at a very respectable amount, he doesn't want to leave and there is a pretty good chance we can come up with something to keep him

Possibly depends how stupid Ricky wants to go, he loves to mismanage the cap

I tend to agree.

However, from what i have heard, we may not be willing to match the Raiders offer.

 

[Delboy]

Maybe it's our chance to get someone for a " wants to stay for less" contract that we hear so much about at other clubs

He doesn't want to live in Canberra, all his family etc are in Western Sydney and he has just moved into a new place close to Parra etc

 

[Avenger]

My source has exposed himself ⬆️

 

[hineyrulz]

Didn't know Delboy was that sort of bloke.
