Rumours and Stuff

Well I guess Hooper claiming MM was going to the Roosters is dead and buried…next

What if they end up grabbing Brown? 1/2 credit?

Obviously great news. New coach and Captain tied down to lead us into the next chapter of the clubs history.

Might be a little cynical of me but anyone else get the vibe this might be the club dropping some good news before some inevitable bad news?

I don't think the club will see Brown moving on as particularly bad news given his asking price. I'd rather spend the $1m on 2 good players (probably from Penrith) who are on the up.

Great news about MM. Get some support for him. A club legend.

Given this happened so quickly and not bothering to test his value, you'd have to think we're paying in the vicinity of $1.5m a year for at least some of those seasons.

Maybe $7m over 5 years?

I’m just happy he has signed and we can build around him. He is in his absolute prime and if he can stay fit, anything is possible.

Regardless of what he is being offered management aren’t exactly going to be jumping for joy that he is leaving.

I think they are 100% doing the right thing not raising their offer btw. Doesn’t mean it won’t suck that he goes.

Dylbags has his flaws for sure but it still won’t be easy trying to find someone who is at his level to replace him.

Great news and an absolute endorsement of the new regime
Will Dyl sign on or leave …. I hope he stays but a clear line has been set. Mitch is our man and Dyl if you want to be part of our revolution then get on board or f**k off … Josh Lyn looks the goods to me

Ezra Mam? (Only half joking)

Interesting listening to Paul Kent’s new podcast that had the two Elias’s as guests .

tbis was done before Moses signed and Benny saying how happy Mitch has been and Kent talking up how the players are learning .

great news on how the club is travelling with Ryles

Brown is doing what the PO allows him to do...

That's why the club is moving away from them

If the club was moving away from them we would be offering Drown an upgrade. Instead we are happy to keep him on his existing contract that has another PO in three years. It’s Drown (and Moses) who want to move away from POs. They want more money instead.

Yeh I think the point is that you can buy an NRL-competentn 5/8th for quite a bit less than what Dylan is on (or get lucky and develop one), and spend any money saved at hooker, and if needed a fullback (either the one we've got or someone else)
