Rumours and Stuff XXX

Who can blame semi?

He wont get paid the tpa's that were promised due to the cap scandal. Effectively, he has been ripped off by the club.

The real blame lies with the morons that voted for a plumber to lead this club.

He got paid them as soon as the NRL ruled they would be included under the cap. The club can pay them with no penalty.

Nah. Pete Something....or Something Pete. I'll get it eventually.

Well just don't think about it for a while and I'm sure it will come to you eventually. I know that works for me.

You can give me the name then, but if he is any good, he may be already locked up by the Titans long term. Do you know if he is available, at least from next season?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Worst season ever since I've been following the club.
I'm over this shit. Really I am.

As for the Semi decision............I'm laying full blame on his greedy manager for this.
Proof? None.
Gut feeling? Plenty.

Blaming the f**king manager? The players are adults. They're not blameless. They are free to tell their managers to f**k off instead of hiding behind them.

Wilder is saying he has personal problems and just want out of the country

Already hanging for the A League season Suity.

Yep.
Watched the Roar semi final again today at Pirtek that I had on IQ, rather than the replay of last nights game.
Seriously unbelievable atmosphere that night.
Were you there?

If you listen to ^^ link, it says that Semi has personal issues that he thinks are best solved by him being out of the country. Whatever that means.

So going to France will fix it? lol.
Don't think so mate. His manager is after a bigger pay day.
Simple.

Yeah you definitely have great thoughts.

I was only pulling your leg. I thought you were doing the same when you mentioned he was a benchie. And ftr I agree, Pritchard's history probably has more breaks than Smith, Ennis and Farah combined. And his service is sub-par.

If I scored a try like Semi did last night I'd probably finish up on that note as well.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Suck shit parra you pathetic excuse for a club.

This just frees up cap space for re-signings. He's not the only player we've let go since we got under the cap.

I'm pleased to hear that Gene is a league fan. I like Young Frankenstein and am a huge fan of Blazing Saddles.

If Semi leaving meant Eels could keep Peats then this will be remembered as a bigger dog act than SBW. Watching a mate reluctantly leave.

I think you quoted the wrong guy.

Yeah, he meant to quote the guy talking about Wilder.

 

[forward pass]

Every great player we produce or buy end up pissing off or going off the rails. We are totally cursed. Unbelievable.

Semi and JNR should have put up there hands then and there and left voluntarily. I really like Peatsy and at least he wanted to be here.

 

[The Phelan Folly]

I hope The Pleasure Machine has something to do with this.

He's not far wrong.

If Semi doesn't want to sign the three year deal (to gain his temporary release until February 2017), and he just doesn't come back from Fiji for the Sharks game (and chases his next pay check somewhere else) - then it's pretty much a straight up $BW case.

Why would they want to be part of a club where the members keep changing management every two years?

I'm fairly certain Arthur didn't want Peats at the club. As for letting players go early, we have granted releases for a reason. We are clearly making cap space to the benefit of future years.
