Anyone listening to the BSB @ 840 this am. Come in on the back of a convo about a potential marquee signing for parra but didnt get the name ... sounded like they may have been talking about someone from another code.... or may have just been speculating about hayne

I can't see Falou as a BA signing. Also Falou's price would to much additionally we don't really need a centre / fullback.

you think thats why he is not going on the wallaby tour?

Yeah possibly, it makes some sense of the bizarre decision to take a "break" considering he has done f**k all the last few years.

Not a huge fan of Izzy but am keen to sign a replacement for that slug Taka.

We pulled out of the race to sign Cronk, must have only been there to up his contract on the Roosters I'd say then.
Seemed strange with two very good halves already. Would have been a good halves coach but we have 2 young halves on the up.

What would Falou cost? If able to get for 400k off the cap and maybe 200k in 3rd party would that get him over the line?

I highly doubt his manager would even pick up the phone for that amount. He is one of the Aussies better players. He probably earning $1 million plus in union plus his third party deals.

Wonder if it was a bit of a marketing ploy by Gurr, nice publicity being linked to one of the premier NRL players especially as we chase a major sponsor.

Also he could earn squillions in France or UK. The only plus is that IIRC his girlfriend plays netball for the silver ferns and is NZ based.
