Rumours and Stuff

[I bleed blue & gold]

Semi isn't going to get his French millions in League, he admitted as mush in an interview.

It will depend on how money hungry he is, if he is keen on the Eels which has has also stated he may be a decent replacement for Fergo in 2021 or Jenko.

Fergo must be on something decent but isn't part of his freight being paid for by the chooks ?

He was off contract iirc.

Reports were we got him for 500K p/y for 3 years.

can't knock his defense but attack is non existent, or it was last Friday from where I was sitting

But we have enough strike. He’s only there to defend

 

[Twizzle]

Why would he sign for Wenty, and how do the Eels make the 2nd year with Wenty?

my bad, Eels NSW cup team

lol so Jennings gets his two year deal, so much for the club talking tough. Bent over just like they did with Guth.

Tbh, I am happy with this.

He offers defence, experience, and leadership - wouldn't surprise me to see Jennings become part of our captaincy circle.

I know his attack is pedestrian these days, but his defence is impeccable, and he is obviously helping Sivo out with his decisions.

LOL!! The only reason Mannah has been blacklisted he told Bea Arthur some home truths. Otherwise he probably would of been signed signed for another 3 year deal.

Not to counter Hiney, but BA is now a much smaller voice on Recuitment and retention.

Final decision is made by ONeil in reality , input from BA and others is available but finally signed off by the retention committee. Been told that their decisions are tough, realistic , within budget and not overs as they see the club now as a desirable place to play. That's why Jenko took a while to get sorted, they have a figure and generally dont budge .

1 year is fair enough but two??? His defence is still pretty good but he couldn't bust a crape these days.

For all we know the deal was 1st year @ $500k and second year @$250k

500K?? LOL. He's barely worth half that.

Hopefully signing MJ doesn’t cost us signing a potential 10 year star.

Why don't you just assume that that is true then? If his 2nd year is at a fair price, no problem.

It's just my shorthand for being tough with negotiations.

Assume what? I’m just saying hopefully we don’t miss out on a 10 year player by giving him 2 years.

How could you ever know that? We don't even know how much he's signed for.
