Fergo isn't a fullbacks sphincter.

He'd go ok if he had to slot in for a match. Wastes his best attributes otherwise and he hasn't got the skills to play that role.
Agreed, his best spot is on the wing, he’s a stop gap fullback at best.

Has any agent actually had his licence revoked as yet ? There have been plenty of duplicate contracts and cash paid in carparks to get a few merkins banned.
Didnt Moses get 6 months after the Storm scandal??? Can’t quite remember.

I can remember Toddles promising to get tough on them after what happened at the Eels.......

So the word is more this is just an attempt to squeeze more money using the media?

Really though, despite that, why don't they just pony up the 700k for Gutho... look at what some of the other nuffies are getting paid at other clubs.

Also, do we still even have French haha

He was always going to test the market. I agree give him $700k, but where does it stop. What if he wants more ?

Welcome aboard.

The Eels have put a number on what they think he is worth. Now he can go away and see if anyone else thinks he is worth more. He will come back to Parra and see if they want to match it. If it’s not something ridiculous (which I seriously doubt anyone would offer him) then I imagine the Eels will pay a little bit extra to keep him.

Without his injury history that would probably (just) be a fair price. But that's a big risk for a bloke that has had a major knee injury.

Agree it is a risk but it’s only a $50-$100k additional risk (allegedly) being the difference in what we have offered and this $700k asking price. I reckon it’s a risk we can afford considering our current available cap space for 2019 and beyond, what Gutho brings to the table and the lack of alternatives.
