Rumoured & Confirmed Signings - Part 5

[jane the pain]

He probably never wanted to leave in the first place, but salary cap being what it is, he chose to move on. Certainly not Kikau.

There were suggestions it may have been Billy Burns but he has had a strong back end of the season and if the reports are correct the incoming coach for the Dragons wants to keep him.

He left for more money. Both Burton and Kikau, should have stayed

 

[Nealo 12]

Everyone leaves us for more money

 

[Munky]

He left for more money. Both Burton and Kikau, should have stayed

Both Burton and Kikau got long term deals at the top of their position group wage wise.

Winning premierships is nice and all but does it pay off the mortgage(s)?

We offered both players contracts, it was there choice to leave.

 

[Aliceinwonderland]

We offered both players contracts, it was there choice to leave.

We would have ended up losing different players, that's all. Happy with what's happened.

 

[jane the pain]

Everyone leaves us for more money

Not everyone.

Yeah I do realise that

They get paid plenty

 

[Chins get the wins]

They get paid plenty

For a few years. Both would have been fools to not cash in

To qoute Fisher-Harris.
"Not all about the money bro"

Api also left for a longer deal. Dyl is trying to get a longer deal (3 years instead of 4).

And ruin their careers? Burton in particular would have been better served in staying. He would have learnt a lot from Cleary and Luai.

Oooops wrong thread..sorry

No. Burton turned down good money from the Dogs, they then came back with silly money and the man set himself up for life. He's then gone on the play for NSW and Australia. His career will work out just fine.

Kikau is oldish for his position and would have been stupid to not take the money

 

[Hooked]

Everyone leaves us for more money

And sometimes for wooden spoons.

 

[Hooked]

@Blade23 is that backrower, who debuted for us, and who wants to return, he wouldn't be Kikau?

Can't afford him. I think Blade said any recruits will be fringe.

Especially when he is supporting his extended family in Fiji. Helping put his neices and nephews through schools too.

Dylan Edwards has re-signed for 4 years. $3.4mill. Just on 9 News. Great news!!!

Could take a pay cut, and he looks unhappy. Tbh if Kiks was still here, then we'll probably lose Smith. Lindsay has been a revelation this year

Great news they got it done before the finals.
