Imagine paying Klemmer $800k a season. Whilst we’re at it, imagine paying Luke Brookes $1.2m a season.

Some clubs have to pay overs, like we did for a number of years, the worst part of that though is that these guys seemingly want out despite the overs ( obviously they don't wanna loose their payday ).

So imagine paying those blokes that kind of coin, and it still not being enough to keep them wanting to play for your club.

Have you heard if personal logic. It's when someone use their own brain to come to a logical conclusion.( So most likely not)

Deal was on. Knights and Eels happy.

We throw 250k for this season and 300k for next. That's 550k off the Knights books for 2023. They'd find a better player for 550k.

Why everyone is unhappy is Klemmers come back and asked for 2024 at an inflated rate. I assume 450k+
Parras baulked and Knights would be shitty. They almost got 550k cap space cleared.

We already have Rein. Is Hands better than Rein ? Nope.

Well he has jumped him in pecking order in NSW CUP. He is younger also
Imagine Mahoney goes down. Would you want Rein for 80mins? And old man in a tough position. I'd run dual hookers if Reeds injured

Huh ? My post was not about us trying to sign Klemmer for the year.

It was about how shit clubs pay massive overs as a punt. It worked for Broncos (Reynolds). But STG, Tigers, Titans, Knights etc are all paying massive overs for players that probably won't solve their problems.

Derp. Rein played 50 minutes vs Penrith and Hands 37 minutes. Try and keep up.

No one sits on their hands better than Parra.
Maybe I missed it but were Penrith, Cows, Sharks, Boncos, Souths and all the teams not currently in the 8 even linked (let alone signed) to anyone (let alone genuine 1st graders).
Even the Rorters only got Gildart on last day and is Gildart a genuine 1st grader?
