I'm all for shelling out big coin for a mean merkin prop like JWH etc, but I actually don't put Woods into that category.
Agreed, he's been a teddy bear this year.

Pathetic for the captain and the so called leader of the club.

Agree but I still wouldn't pay JWH more then 650k.

Woods is a lumber jack. Hard worker and better then anyone we have but would any of our props be on more then 300k?

Nice to see that News Ltd have found a way to sledge us with the Moses signing.

So like Paul Gallen, we are dumb cos we passed on a S G Ball player.

TBH I'd like to hear from any of you merkins who take more notice in the kids than I do. Was Moses playing out of his skin at the time ? Who did we punt on when we passed on Moses at the time ?

If I'm not mistaken, it wasn't a case of us not wanting him, but rather uncle benny advising him of going to the Tigers. And I believe he was a very good player back then.


Ps. Never trust an uncle named uncle benny.

Some times we dont necessarily punt junior players, its just that other clubs offer them overs.

And on Woods, I dont see him as the BA type, not enough mongrel in him for BA imo

A front row of Tim Mannah & Aaron Woods would go down as the softest in history.
Would have about as much impact as Homer did when he was training to be a boxer...

Massive call, when you consider some of our past front rowers:

Darren Treacy
Corey Pearson

I'm sure there are others, but I'm having PTSD flashbacks already...

I was under the impression he played with our Junior sides as he was told we had better development then Uncle Benny instructed him to go off to tigers once he got what he needed from us...

Woods 2016 stats were pretty good. Averaging 160 m per game and pretty good defensively. Good player.

But definitely wouldn't be offering him anything like what has been suggested ($900k ) he wants.

But if we have the cap space, for a reasonable offer, I reckon he would offer us plenty.
