Current rumours suggest that Brisbane managed to find the cash down the back of the couch that they needed to keep Ese'ese. #justbroncosthings
Convo at Red Hill...
Boncos Head of Retention - "So Wayne, what about young Herman Ese'ese, we keeping him for 2018?"
Coach Bennett - "Nah, f**k him. Don't need him"
Boncos Head of Retention - "OK boss......But I did hear your former club, the Knights, have made him a generous offer of 300K a year... they must see something in him"
Coach Bennett - "Is that so?" [pause] "You know what, on second thoughts, sign him up for 3 more years, 500K a year, 150K on the cap, the rest is made up of TPA's. Change Gillet's contract to a 2nd tier deal so we can fit Herman on the books.... If someone else wants him, they can't f**king have him.... I'll call the Thoroughbreds now and have them cut you a cheque"
Boncos Head of Retention - "Excellent decision sir if I may say so"
