Rumours and Stuff

Unsure what money we have left.
But assuming MJ will want 300-350 I would throw 750 at Latrell and wave goodbye to MJ

Not sure why we would sign MJ for 2 years. His form has been up and down even this year. I'd prefer 1 year and look to sign an up and coming centre. How is that Fiji centre going that we signed last/this year for JF?

Latrell is very much a up and down player. When on he is unstoppable, when off he is terrible, as in the Tonga test. Let the Roosters look after him.

and Latrell was close to the worst on field...alongside DCE.

I didn't think DCE was that bad but Munster certainly was along with Latrell.

My brother works for an elevator repair business. He says its a very up and down industry.

Good one Pete.

Come on Pou, the past is less relevant than the future. And next year is looking pretty rosy for Parra.

Unfortunately I can't find the stats for the future.

So did 2018 on 1 November 2017.

Hopefully Matterson doesn't have the same influence Hayne did.

Prodigal son returning, FFS we're doomed!!!!

That may be, but it's worth remembering that you aint gonna be signing Latrell for a year, it'll be three years plus that you tie that money up for, and attack really isn't an issue for us across our current back line. I don't see Latrell as a better defender than MJ.

So even if that is so and there's nothing on the market now that improves us where we really need improvement ( middle defence ) , there'll be a lot of blokes coming off contract over that time that very well might.

Again though from the outside looking in Latrell seems to have some issues that make him a less attractive proposition off the field, and I reckon that should make us wary, at the Roosters he's not the biggest fish in the pond, but at Parra he would be, kinda like Hayne was. I could be way off, but I reckon he would be detrimental to our culture in a similar way.

I dont recall us scoring a point in our last game.
I'd be happy to pay Latrell 750k for 3yrs.
Like I said it would only cost an extra 400k and we have a game breaker.

MJ might be ok for but he has no speed anymore. Still defends well but he doesnt seem to have the same spark.
Latrell at 750k is fine. At more then NO.
FERGO is on 500k. And his form also was going downhill end of season.

My brother works for the same company as a lift mechanic. On the weekends he buys old ones and hots them up.

If you could remember our second last game you might average the two.

It wouldn't cost another 350k, he was offered 800k by the Roosters and was insulted. How are we going to land him for 750k?

People saying the eels need to fix their defence to be considered a genuine contender, but a lot of our points came off kicks this year. I think our attack still needs plenty of work too.

So does our young back up hooker.

He may have been insulted but Latrell isn’t what he thinks he’s worth. The Bulldogs have dropped out of the race apparently. I still don’t want him, even at $750-$800k.

Yeah they've banned kicking next year.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Yeah they've banned kicking next year.

I read an article the other day calling for the banning of heading in kids soccer. Too dangerous.

If only they banned the f#*kwits off this forum...

How good is this banter!

Believe it or not there’s been some talk about banning the tackle in kids RL.
