Rumours and Stuff

When W.Smith fit he takes his spot. That is if D.Brown is not fit.
Sal mon may go ok at centre but makes a terrible 5/8. Prefer Taka.

Salmon is a much better player than Smith.

He can also cover more positions

I agree. Salmon has more skin in the game.

f**k off. Idiots like you are part of the problem. You think signing a player at any cost (without cheating) is exactly what the successful clubs do.

Why do you have to be so obnoxious?

Not a Pou lover, but Delboy is just about as obnoxious most of the time to be fair...

Just try having a differing opinion from interstate. Apparently that really riles him up.

Love Gutho, but he will probably never play origin or for his country. So he doesn’t get paid elite cash. Sorry King.

If someone wants to play $8/900k for him then what can you do ? See ya.

I don’t buy this “just get it done” business especially when they want overs.

The other day I said, $600K tops. That's more than enough for him.

My sentiments as well. Gone are the days of paying overs to secure payers. I like Gutho as much as the next supporter but if he ends up going elsewhere for bigger bucks then so be it.

Absolutely, given the non-trivial injury risk.

[I'm a loser baby...]

They think they can get overs cos he's popular with fans, so the game plan is to get the fans riled up and the club will cave in as usual. f**k them. I haven't actually heard a lot about other clubs willing to give him the big bucks. The only one mentioned is Manly ffs, and they've already got a big bucks fullback.

 

[Bazal]

Be willing to go to 700k, but that's it.

He's a gun but he's not a superstar. Anyway this is realistically just as likely to be a manager trying to milk more. Guth loves the place, he'll stay unless he can get massive overs IMO

 

[84 Baby]

Didn't he say weeks back that he was going to test market and give us right to match it?

Classy mate. Very classy.

I don't know what he said. Every time he talks now I'm just filled with rage!!

I hate his stupid f**king beard!!!

 

[84 Baby]

Not really Gunco! I love you. Please sign... just not for some ridiculous amount that means you get stuck with Will Smith as your 5/8th

If he's chasing the dollars then let him go. I'm sticking with the club on this one. It's a matter of principle and a sign to other potential Eels that we won't be bent over anymore.

I'd imagine every half decent player tests the market at contract time just too see what they are worth. Being popular and the fact he plays for Parra just means it makes the news.

I don't reckon HE'S chasing the dollars, but as someone said previously (I think it was Delboy, @Poupou Escobar can confirm) that's why they hire agents

 

[IFR33K]

manly moved him on when he was on chump change. We’ve taken the risk with him and persevered after his second acl. We could of easily told him to explore his options in 2017. If he wants to chase the dollars at manly, that’s fine with me. He’s handy, but He’ll never be an elite player. This says more about him and his management than it does about our club.
