I just got told that Benji is going to Salford. The media will say that he has failed in his code switch.

Behind the scenes I am told is that he was always going to Salford (owned by a gabillionaire arab race horse owner these days). The interesting twist in this tale is that Benji now being a Rugby player is exempt from the ESL salary cap rules ......;-);-);-)

So he can make $1mill plus and triple the money he was getting in union to boot!

Nice deal Benji.

They didn't say anything about next year though.

George Rose :arrow: Parra (2015)

You heard it sarcastically here first.

George Rose is a disgrace and a grub. Do not want him at Parra. Let him go back to Manly where he has a cult following. "Yeah, we love the fat guy because he's fat and fat people shouldn't succeed in the NRL. YEAHHH!!!"

That does make alot of sense. There was alot of head scratching done as to why Benji had given up on an NRL deal, plus the accompanying media coin for a relatively small Union contract. Here comes the payday.

It is interesting as Salford were in cap trouble and having to release a few players because of that. Makes sense to get around the cap.

It's a bit like Darren Lockyer trying to pressure the NRL into paying to bring back Karmichael Hunt because he's an AFL player. If tey wouldn't do it for Folau than screw the Broncos.

Sounds like us going back 15 years with Mark Tookey.

for the wrestling fans, ultimate warrior (who looked and sounded like he was on his way out on raw yesterday) passed away earlier today.

was good to see him at least get to say what he needed to to his fans before passing.

He was early 50's I heard. Bet you $1 that his cause of death is related to steroids use.
