It's certainly not because we can't afford Radradra. It's because we don't want to pay overs. I doubt Jennings is on that much either. He came because we offered security (a four year contract at age 27), not because we offered stupid money. Our offer to Hayne shows we'd rather lose a player than pay overs.Semi to brisbane that will do me, poor management by the club. I mean to sign jennings when you knew this guy was coming off contrsct
That article is referring to the revised deal ... not the original f**k uphttp://www.foxsports.com.au/breakin...s/news-story/c3ab9f132878c31de803d4c8fa11e646
Is there a source saying we wouldn't give it to them? seems clear from that report of Nov 3 last year that the NRL refused to register it.
Anyway, seems they can do what they want regardless.... I made the arguments in the past and clearly I got nothing!!!

Semi is worth 550k
Semi is worth 550k
Bye bye Semi sadly.What if he insists on 800k?
the never registered his contractWhich rule aren't the NRL following?
Yeah I reckon. Maybe more. Jennings is worth about that too, IMO.Semi is worth 550k

Bye bye Semi sadly.
Maybe no NRL teamNo team would pay it...

Agreed. Moeroa is off contract. How much is he worth to us? And if another club offers that much plus $200k surely we should let him go.Yep.
It's not always poor management losing a player...sometimes it's good management....
And around and around and around we go where Pou stops nobody goes.I know you said most clubs are cheating, but the Broncos can?
That'll do me.
Going by your own logic, shouldn't we cheat as well, to keep him?
Yes but I doubt we'll be cheating. If we can't pay Radradra outside the cap (as an inducement to stay, which is cheating) then we shouldn't match bigger offers.I know you said most clubs are cheating, but the Broncos can?
That'll do me.

WTF are you on about? We should only keep Radradra if we're cheating. How hard is that to understand? If we can't cheat we shouldn't match bigger offers. It will f**k our salary cap.And around and around and around we go where Pou stops nobody goes.
No we should magically find rich fans masquerading as sponsors willing to pay a player $300k to turn up at a couple of games of golf. And then tell the NRL it's not an inducement to re-sign with us.Says who? Brisbane could pay that and probably only have half it on the cap to boot. French Rugby would pay it in a heartbeat, so would Japan.
If he was to put his foot down and say "Brisbane/RU have offered me 800k, match it or I'm gone" are you going to be in here shouting poor management when we laugh at him?
