$500k for an outside back who had achieved nothing, while they had talented youngsters coming through? Penrith aren’t that stupid.
Yes
They have historically been very stupid with many over paid stars from years gone by. Do I have to create a list?
I don’t think they have. I reckon they have a great junior system and are ruthless at moving merkins on when someone cheaper is ready for first grade. It doesn’t mean the previous merkin was on overs, just that there’s an opportunity to bring someone in on unders. Overall it’s good for the cap.
It's not secret cos I heard them talk about it on 2MMM heaps of times and plenty of clubs have said no f**king way, no thanks.
The new attack has surely contributed to our huge drop in completion rates.
If only they had a Time Machine or your circular logic.
So tell us how you know they overpaid merkins? Releasing them 12 months later only proves they were surplus to requirements.
You think Staines would get a crack at fullback at Parra?
No, what I'm saying is that now that he won't be playing fullback, there is no reason to stay at a team that just contends for the spoon. He would get a run on the right wing at most teams in contention for the Top 8.
