[GowersDallyM]

Royce Hunt looked the sharks best forward today.. actually bent our line afew times.

 

[Aliceinwonderland]

Better off asking @Aliceinwonderland

Well Scotty too hotty looked mighty fine tonight, scoring that try.

 

[GowersDallyM]

Edwards finally fullback for the blues. I'm going to have 50 on him to win man of the series. He will be exactly whats needed at the back.

We spent the money on Paps.

He is too dear now.

Tigers urged to be 'careful' over prop's $900k pay day

'That's big money'

Mids and cheapies will likely fill out our squad.

What did Papali'i cost? I don't think more then 500k personally.
JFH was on 850k wasn't he? There would be 350k spare.
You then have Turuvas money and the club did offer 350k for him prior to the Fish leaving so that would be up their sleeve. I reckon min 600k to play with and also a lot pending on MAY.
Problem with MAY is it could drag out for a year or two. I think the NRL need to do something about this. It is unfair if you are going to have 500k sitting there in the cap while you wait. It was very unfair for the Dragons.

I highly doubt they let Papali'i go if the knew Stefano may not stay.

The May ‘thing’ will be finalised by the end of the year, one way or the other. Dealt with in the Local Court, not a District Court matter.

Could be another 500k spare. And the club may just promote within the club. Alamoti looks decent. Not great butnsolid and very young still. He may take his spot while C.Meclean is the back up.
Jesse I reckon will be the other winger 100%
That could mean they make a splash for another fairly decent forward.

We need depth in outside backs

Depth players are easy to find. Generally they are guys nobody wants for first grade.

I have no doubt we find them but we are currently 1 injury from having no recognised centre in FG because of May being unavailable.

If you believe this. $750k.

Penrith will foot his $750,000 salary for next season in the first of a three-year deal that was announced on Thursday morning, confident Papali’i can rekindle his 2021 Dally M second-rower-of-the-year form.

I don't beleive it but. He was signed after 1 great year at Parra. The rumours then where 550k -600k. Papers always inflate shit.

I can’t imagine us splashing the cash on Stephano just way too much money. He’s talented but not at the money being suggested.

 

[hindy111]

I also don't believe Pemrith who have been very shrewd when re signing their own players wpuld go and pay overs to bring someone in who has been in average form.

Agree. I think they will find someone who is a certain top 17 player though. Someone around the 400k mark.

Last week the talk of Staines coming back was cringe, but as cover he will be ok, I think it's time we go for a big winger. I can't remember the last time we had one.
