JAC to dogs?

Can somebody translate? I did hear him say "at the bulldogs next year" but gather it was as a favour to that secca, whom he seems to know/be friends with. The dude is a dogs fan, unless that @Bulldogs fan account is someone else.

Let me get this straight...

So the hottest fullback prospect in years is going to forgo 7-figure deals from Souths, Tigers and ARU to play top level football, instead singing for circa $200k in his first year, at the club that has the best fullback in the world (who is still only 27 years old) with no chance of playing fullback for 3-5 years? Ok.

He will be playing for love of the Roosters colours:



Please don't look into it any further

On 7 news, Kevin Walters is interested in bringing home 32yo David mead. Wiki has him currently at Catalan.

Stephen Crichton to Eels 3 year deal

Stephen Crichton to Eels 3 year deal

I am hearing we have agreed to let Waqa go back to the Panfer's and the money they were chipping in for Waqa's contract we will then be sending back to Penrith so they can keep paying him...

Also hearing he has offered Albert Kelly a train & trial.

Kevvy is putting together a crack squad to defend that spoon.

. . . rhyno actually meant Stephanie Crichton, a counsellor that specialises in not getting your hopes up.
She will have her work cut out for her around the Parra club, but the 3yr term will help.

If they’re crack heads, they will be disappointed to know they can’t heat up a wooden spoon very well.

Lodge > warriors

what an awful signing this would be for them. The guys knees are shot and he was exposed big time with the faster play. He wouldn’t even make nz’s 17

They wanna pay him like he's Taumalolo as well. Warriors recruitment guy is his father in-law for what it's worth.

Benji to the chooks?

if he doesn’t want to leave Sydney, why aren’t the tigers offering him 150k to stay?

The tigers booted him out the door, if they wanted him, he'd be there, he would be an excellent depth half at Penrith now that matt burton has moved on in '22

Why would a club with such a strong junior base want to block the development of young halves by signing someone like Benji?

It might be assuming Burton moves to the Bulldogs in 2021 and as a depth signing in case of injury to either Cleary and Luai?
