There is no way any competent management would offer 850k to a unproven player.That is halfback money
.Even blade said crighton is not getting 750k no way spencer is getting more creighton .He would be offered more than a prop

The dogs have given out some pretty horrible contracts in recent times but geez if they have actually offered 850 their management is going to f**k that cap up very quickly again.

he said it this afternoon.

That’s also not how you speak hypothetically.
Seriously, Luke? I did not read Blade's post from today. Here is the definition of hypothetically:
hypothetically
ADVERB
  1. by imagining a possibility rather than reality; as a hypothesis.
    "we talked hypothetically about how cool it would be if we moved" · "he poses the question hypothetically" · "what would you do, hypothetically speaking?"

Jane, you weren’t posing a hypothetical situation to the group. You were saying that he may have already signed and we just don’t know about it.

Anyone that read your post word agree with me.

we lose him, we keep Tetevano and develop someone else.

we keep him, we lose Tetevano and develop someone else.

either way, I’m cool with it. I would offer him what we want to pay him and not a cent more.


How often do we develop props of that potential? Props prime is from 21-26, he’s just coming in to that period. Tetevano isn’t a replacement for what Leniu brings in impact.

of course the question of his actual value is a hard one, but it’s definitely more than your typical bench prop.

People are actually saying Leniu ain’t that good now? C’monnnn the kids good, real good.

Absolute incompetence to lose Hetherington, Tamou, Leniu in the space of a few months.

I like the Hopa signing, I think he’s likely to play up the middle. Got some errors in him but he’s aggressive in defence & has decent footwork when he holds it.

Last time I looked the sky is not falling.

Like most folks I'd love some re-signings. But at the moment they aren't happening. Yep I'm getting impatient too especially with Crighton's manager.

I would prefer the club not to ruin the cap by overspending too.

It's a difficult balance.

So no sack cloth and ashes for me.....sorry.

If we lose players it means we again fly under the radar and it gives the potential for other hungry kids to come through.

Wake me up when season 2021 starts.

No one said he wasn’t good, I just said he’s not worth all the commotion. He’s certainly not worth the figures that are being suggested.

If he leaves for a ridiculous amount of money, I won’t lose any sleep. That’s all I’m saying.

No one is saying that. Is he worth more then Yeo or JFH is the question?

That is what he comes down too
