Wouldn't there need to be a team wanting to actually sign him for that to happen?

Given nobodies like Sam Obst and Mick Dobson are full time first graders overe there, I don't think Robbo would have an issue. Hell, his interview would be easy as piss.

Coach-So Robbo, what can you bring to this club?
Robbo-Well, I average 26 tackles a ga...
Coach interrupts-Will 300k do?

Mate, we could not re-sign Kingston, no matter who we signed. I'll update the list by the way, thanks.

We didn't re-sign Robson until the season finished.

Kingston we were forbidden to sign by the NRL.

Sucks - but what can you do? There was originally a better method of signing him that we could've used that would've then allowed us to keep him - but you can't re-write history and change to the better method just because you sacked the old coach...

Perfectly agree; Robbo had come off a purple patch of form just like Mortimer, Eels had every right to think the pair could do it again I guess. Sucks about Kingston, but hey, we've got Anthony Mitchell now, who in his first 2 games even though under serious pressure has been great for us.

Hooker is not a problem as much now, Mitchell is our future hooker.

Kimmorley back on the radar.I say grab him play him at 7 and play brad murray at 6 that will give us plenty of options on both sides of the ruck Mitchel at 9 and mortz 14 id be happy with that.With quade to come in 2012

How about Kimmorley for a year, Quade from 2010, Murray at 14 and Mitchell at 9. Murray can come on a play 30min of hooker and get used to the pressure of NRL then when Kimmorley retires he can take the 7. If Quade doent come till 2012 i would play humble or barba over mortz who needs a good stint in wenty before he is promoted again IMO.

Surely the dogs would be asking why he hasnt announced his retirement. I think its obvious he wants to go round again.
