Rumours and Stuff

Forget that bullshit. He is a once in a generation player. If he genuinely wants to come back at a competitive price then if we don't consider it we are f**king mad. I truly believe that nobody can handle him except Arthur or perhaps Bellamy and he ain't going to the Storm.

Don't forget if it wasn't for Hayne pushing for BA he would have probably missed out on the coaching gig at Parra.

BA is not stupid. At the right price he would sign him because we would have a greater chance of winning the comp.

In addition, imagine the marketing advantages and sponsorship opportunities of him returning. Organisations out west would be lining up. It would be massive. A truly great story if we jagged a comp.

If he is genuine and wants to be part of the playing group and the club are keen I don't see a problem with it other than the fact we are still short a prop and a recognised hooker.

Still leaves us with a team that can be dominated around the ruck and limits the room the halves have to be effective which is where we were when he was here last time.

Signing him doesn't guarantee us a competition especially if we have to move on players to do it.

Despite their win the other night I still think the Titans are a much better side without him.

Did you know that if you sat a bunch of immortal monkeys in a room with a bunch of typewriters, they'd eventually bash out every book ever written by random chance?

The principle is the same for Penrith fans
Explains a lot about hindy's posts....

For the right price we should go for it. We don't need to pay overs for a prop and I'd take Peats back in heartbeat.

What is the right price though?? The right price and the "right" price can be very far apart. Personally I don't think he is worth more than 650-700k.

Imagine how many of them got to the very end and left out the period.

Yep. That amount under the cap would be fine. I am certain legitimate TPA's could be found for him. I don't think we would need to shed any players who are currently on contract.

Call me petty or soft. But I just can't move on from the circus he created when he came back, and then the spineless interview he gave and comments he made. No need for it, we were just getting our house in order and didn't need that shit from him.
Anyways, I think these stories are just column fillers anyway to be honest.
