Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

[GongPanther]

I'm an "anyone but the Roosters and Storm" fanboy from here on in.

Roosters and Storm GF winner?

 

[Fangs]

Oh come on he's the perfect guy to let develop. If he goes I'm going to be very cranky.

He re-signed, on what price?

Rumoured that DWZ was on a huge contract. How do we know Egan isn't on 350-400k? You can bet Mitch Kenny is on close to minimum wage.

 

[Fangs]

Its just gotta be money with Egan. If he isn't been paid much at all then the release is a very strange one.

Would we really need the cap space though?

 

[franklin2323]

Do we know Egan didn't want out rather then the other way around?

Egan has done very little, I doubt he’s on more than 250k.

Now the DT is reporting that Egan is on 500 000,I have been sitting on the fence with the legacy of Gus but geez he overpaid players putting the club into salary cap pressure.I really thought he knew what he was doing but he has paid guys like Dwz Waqa Mansour Rcg Egan Tamau Maloney whare etc on too much coin,the sharks were paying Maloney heaps less and thats why he was keen to leave aswell.I feel Gus has alot to answer for.

 

[OldPanther]

No way Egan was on $500k. He'd barely come out of reserve grade.

Lol no chance thats true

Wouldn't be the 1st time Gus overpaid... But still doubt it

Sounds more like Dave and his mate giving some spin to the DT to make Gus look bad and themselves as the saviors.

Dickhead Ivan also cut Lewis because he said something disagreeable to him at training...

Phil Gould says hi.

 

[Fangs]

Penrith used to pay a lot on potential. DWZ wouldn't have been the only one on big coin.

 

[Fangs]

Well you pay players what they are worth right?

So if saving 100-150k on egan is worth it then you do it. So when Latrell comes on the market you have that ready to do.

 

[Kilkenny]

DT saying Egan on 500K. Interesting because given the figures the DT have said some of our players are on or were on before leaving I estimate Gus was spending about 13million so no wonder He was shown the door.

Mind you it was DT who had API done deal to the Bulldogs so there credibility is questionable at the best of times,

 

[mxlegend99]

The media figures dont add up.

$800k for DWZ?
$500K for Egan
$500k+ for Blake
$850k for Maloney
$800k for RCG

Thats a hell of a warchest if those figures were accurate. Egan is the least believable of them though. He has barely been part of our top 17 and was typically a benchie when he was.

 

[OldPanther]

I got it with DWZ for example since people said he was being paid as a fullback, RCG was a rep prop until breaking his jaw twice. Egan doesn't make sense since he's barely started.

Maybe it was an upgrade for taking peter wallaces hooking spot, when he retired?
Unfortunately Ivan couldn't make him work as a 80min hooker as of yet, and Mitch Kenny nabbed the spot on the back of his defence, i can see the need to offload Egan, since Kenny is more versatile as a lock, but Egan can be a back up half.. no? At least till the tyrone may situation is solved

 

[Panfa]

Dogs and tigers need a hooker egan will end up at 1 of those clubs id say dogs will snap him up.
