Rumours and Stuff

[84 Baby]

Not in cricket, mate.

Nah it's still pretty dumb.

Bowling an over? How can you do something that's f**ken over?

HOWZAT! Got him! Piss off! You're out!

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Listen moron, where did I say at any cost, if you feel like insulting me or anyone, please actually come to a game and do it in person.
This is a discussion board, not an opportunity for you to continue to try and be superior. As I have said before , people that post insults etc are a big reason that blogs and social media finds less and less contributors . No one is completely correct, certainly not you.

You make a valid point you f**king shit merkin.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Why do you have to be so obnoxious?

You can get f**ked.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Classy mate. Very classy.

I'm not interested in being classy. It's a forum about rugby league ffs. I save my class for the forum where I discuss wine and European cars with f**kwits.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

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.

And it might even improve the club's reputation.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

So if Gutho doesnt stay who plays fullback next season....

Smith? French? Dunster? Fullback is unlikely to be our best position next year but with the money we save on Gutherson we can improve in other areas. Our huge wingers mean we don't need a big fullback. In fact a quicker fullback would be nice with our new found desire to offload.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

French and we just get better players in other positions

You are the smartest merkin on here.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

French cant even get the fullback gig at Wenty

He's just getting pushed out so we can bring Parry into the top 30.

 

[strider]

Guth sits just outside the top fullbacks in the game. He's worth 700k and not the million 4/5 of the elite ones are on. He's still a great player, second most metres gained, most LBAs in the comp, tied 3rd most try assists. Plus we know he's a leader and gaining more confidence in the role and he isn't a merkin off the field.

This x100000000

700k is NOT elite money at all ..... its totally fair

We bitch and moan that we have no player with leadership qualities, then when we get one, we bitch and moan he wants a bit of coin and tell him to piss off .... FMD

700k x 4 is more than fair for us ..... pay him .... structure a fair chunk of it into this years cap space

And if we cant find a TPA or two for him then we will never have a TPA for anyone

Go to bed Strider.

He wants more then 700k?
What did we offer?
I assumed we offered 500k

700k is a MAX for Guth. But there is always Bevan French. He was ok a year ago.

Go to bed Strider.

I did .... what should i do now?

Not with players looking to come here for the money

As long as he doesn’t turn into Josh Reynolds

European cars? You’re a bigger moron then I thought.

Yep, $700k is at the very top end of what he’s worth but in lieu of any quality replacements that appear to be available from 2020, I think we need to pay it. If we could talk him down to $650k across 4 years then all the better.

Next year’s cap is $9.8 mil, increasing to $10mil by 2022. That’s only 6.5-7% of the cap and is fair for a spine position, particularly for a good option in that position, a leader and captain, and a decent human being.

French is certainly not the answer.

 

[Gary Gutful]

Thanks, Gary.

You just complemented him you dill!

 

[84 Baby]

Probably the realistic targets are DWZ, Bogan and Gordon/Brimson. Perhaps Hughes or Drinkwater.

Would you really swap Gunco for any of those plus the improvements the savings may provide? I don’t reckon DWZ or Bogan will give that mich in savings

 

[84 Baby]

What a moron!


Wait a minute....

 

[hineyrulz]

We can’t win, we pay overs and f**kwits in the media bag the shit out of us, we offer what we think and is fair deal and refuse to pay overs we get the shit bagged out of us in the media.
