Rumours and Stuff

“I said to Wayne before the (Bulldogs) game ‘don’t feel sorry for me on the bench. If there is a time to put me on then put me on, if not, don’t put me on’,” Marshall said.

“I’m a team person. I want what’s best for the team. If that means me playing the utility role off the bench or being 18th man, I’m not fazed. That’s up to the coach.

"Aww Wayne cuz, I'm happy to earn $100k just to sit on the bench and watch bro!"

How is it heresay if it's the person who made the physical payments to them. I have no legal knowledge but I would have thought that would be classed as first hand knowledge

Apologies heresay was probably the wrong term. Should have used he said she said. Just because the business man said it happened doesn't mean it did. He could be disgruntled about something and making shit up. It would seem unlikely that he would have evidence since it was meant to be secret

I have no doubts whatsoever that Phantom is a Goatf**ker.

Happy to be proven wrong though

What's it like?

At first it's a bit weird, mainly because they are different. But after a while they stop kicking and it's pretty great.

 

[Stevie]

I guess we'll find out.

Thank you Caprain Obvious!

Sorry, I'm overseas getting drunk and bored.

But seriously ya merkin!

Don't do anything stupid and get arrested.

Id offer Benji 150k for a back up and put in wenty.
Well worth that and provides good cover.

150K in Parra dollars at the current exchange rate = about 0.13c in Bronco dollars, couldn't see Bunji taking that much of a pay cut "again".

Rejuvenated veteran Benji Marshall could quit Brisbane over contract dispute

BENJI Marshall has revealed he is considering quitting the Broncos after being told he will have to play for $100,000 again to continue his NRL career at Brisbane.

[/QUOTE]
Wonder what Benji is going to do after footy to earn $200k plus per year?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

He'll go and work in the mines. He's already got his first aid ticket. Just working on his forklift licence right now.

 

[TheRam]

Anyway, f**king a goat isn;t as fun as it seems

You're not from Columbia are you?

 

[rapture]

Benji would have plenty of suitors at $100,000, but not too many above that.

150k is too much for a back-up, even for a half. There's guys in first grade who're on less than that.

What would we need to offer Dargan? What would of Fogarty or Robson cost? Im being honest I have no idea. I assumed 100k+ being an important position.
Even if was min at say 90k is 60k a waste for a back up who could be as good as your starter if played to potential?
Ideal Dargan is re signed. Some news on him and other guys would be great.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Remember, best case scenario is that your backups play zero games in first grade. How much do you want to be paying those guys?

Obviously teams use more than 17 players in a season. The player in any given squad who plays the 18th most number of games generally plays 12 games (half the season). So obviously you need him to be worth considerably more than minimum salary. The rest of your backups decline in value from there. Can you reshuffle your team so you bring in player 18 rather than a backup at a specialist position? Or are you forced to bring in a specialist half when one of your starters is unavailable? This is what determines how much you should pay your top backup half. We already have halves options in our 17, including Gutherson and Takairangi. We've probably offered Dargan a spot on minimum salary because that's what he's worth to us next year. But he could be holding out for a better offer from a club more in need of a backup halfback. You can't stockpile players any more. Even the Broncos had to let Ash Taylor go.

Minimum wage. So 80k. You may pay a touch more for potential spine players but not someone like Marshall.

Haha I've seen that...f**ken weird but funny as shit

 

[oldmancraigy]

Why would anyone pay Benchie more than 100k?
