Rumours and Stuff

[Glenneel]

ABC Grandstand radio were saying on the weekend that Lussick would be free to go if he secures a contract elsewhere. Apparently a Super League offer is imminent

Phew, I read the start of the storey and thought you were about to suggest Parra sign him again. Even Moanly can see he is hopeless.

 

[Glenneel]

On NRL360 Rothfield said that Blake Green was on $650k at Manly.

That’s very good money for a half of his standard.

Which just happens to be the fine and Moanly let him go before season started. Some collusion between Greenberg and Moanly?

 

[Bazal]

Bazal if you just report the facts rather than making up stupid stories your credibility might actually increase. And what's your fasciation with me anyway , frankly it's a bit embarrassing.

Actually you responded to a general fact that I posted as a general point of interest.

Well, responded is a general term, given you still haven't actually addressed it, just spewed rubbish.

No. They let him go because they believed they were going to get Pearce

He's done f**k all. I hope if we're paying for potential he lives up to it.

Like we did with The Plane?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

He is 30 with 200 games under his belt. You know what you're getting with a bloke like that.

doesn't say we will talk to him though

 

[Soren Lorenson]

We didn't pay for the Plane's potential though. The Titans did.

 

[Stevie]

Correct.

On a 1 year deal! Based on his performance at the moment he probably wont have clubs knocking down the door for him so we are the ones in the position of power. AND, we didn't lose anyone to get him.

 

[El Diablo]

why would you want anyone to knock down your door?

 

[TheRam]

I hope Tevita Pangai Junior is just a rumour. As Pou has suggested, at this stage he has done very little on a week in week out basis.

I would much rather Junior Paulo or Shannon Boyd they both offer much more then Pangai has shown so far. Juniors offloads are destructive and we don't have anything like him. Even Brown doesn't offer the consistent offloads that Junior does I don't think.

I Know his work rate is down on what it should be, but that is all Ricky's fault and he need a good mentor, which Ricky is not.

Hope is better the nothing

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

I hope Tevita Pangai Junior is just that. .

Is just what? Young? He will be for a while.

 

[Bazal]

As an aside, hasn't Shannon Boyd gone to shit? He was always a bit overrated but ffs the bloke wouldn't make my Wenty side right now. He looks like the forty five year old bricky who spends six hours sinking schooners at the local every night after knock off but still manages to play A grade because of his "experience"

TPJ has averaged 3.7 tackle breaks this year more then Boyd (1 per game) Paulo (2.7). Do we need metres? Or a prop who is able to break tackles?

Plus TPJ is younger and has more improvement.

Hmmm....funny you mention him because when Jake asked:

Who do you suggest we purchase then? Since you were so pro the current soft forward pack.

We got:

Shannon Boyd

I haven't watched any Raiders games this year so can't comment but those that have, is he shit or worth signing?

For the right money I'd sign him, he's definitely talented. I think the issue is he's been on the Sticky diet... Fourteen Big Macs for every meal and a KFC bucket full cola
