Rumours and Stuff

[TheRam]

He's an Eels supporter f**kwit. Did you forget to take your meds this morning ?

You obviously didn't get the joke.

 

[Avenger]

I think this is an admission that Murchie and Momoisea were huge f**k ups. They should be tapped on the shoulder and let go. This is BA’s Muckert/Muspratt moment.

His Hodgson moment will go down as another Watmough type clanger. The Davey signing also defies logic especially when you have Mataele, Moretti and even Doorey available with more upside.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Compare that to Spencer Leniu who is a quality player all the time and still only 22 years old and will cost the Roosters only $525K.

Maybe we should have signed Leniu on $525k instead? Knowing us we’d have preferred to pay him $700k because we think it’s a lower number.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I think this is an admission that Murchie and Momoisea were huge f**k ups.

They would be on close to minimum salary.

 

[TheRam]

I think we've seen glimpses of it - he's made a few big runs where be has broken past first contact, and kept going.

He's still young.

What he needs is time, and for Bald Farmer to give him game time.

Yes I have seen it too, but I just think he is playing within himself and needs to be way more aggressive to go to the next level.

Hate is a great motivator. We don't have enough of those.

 

[Avenger]

Who the f**k said we are happy to pay this much? Were the Tigers even happy to pay this much with all the forwards they have? It sounds like more media bullshit.

NRL360 revealed his wages. We’d be insane if we were paying full freight especially if Saifiti is available for $700k.

 

[Avenger]

Murchie is on $220k. Don’t know about the other merkin. My source is impeccable.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I dont get the thoughts that Ive seen some have saying Papallis been poor. Sure he hasnt been at the level he was at Parra which won him second rower of the year but overall hes been a good signing. As you say its also been hard for him playing next to the worst 7 in the comp. Agsint Manly he made a break and offload which should have been the match winning play only for the imp inside him to drop the ball.

He gets fewer one on one opportunities at the Tigers, so more of his runs are hit ups rather than hitting gaps.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

NRL360 revealed his wages.

Are they his accountants?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Murchie is on $220k. Don’t know about the other merkin. My source is impeccable.

Murchie at least had 40 games under his belt. Momoisea had 8 games by age 24. That is a minimum salary player with zero upside.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

There is nothing average about Spencer Leniu who is on $525K at the Roosters.

Do you reckon he could’ve gotten more at the Dogs or Tigers? If so why didn’t he?

 

[Gronk]

You obviously didn't get the joke.

Nice try

 

[Vic Mackey]

Maybe you'll use his free cap space to top up some key players?

Hah we dont have any key players

And he thinks he has stopped his clanger co*kups when you look at his latest video interview. Delusion of the highest order.

Recruitment and retention is where all coaches win or lose.

 

[TheRam]

Nice try

Even nicer ignorance.

 

[Avenger]

Murchie at least had 40 games under his belt. Momoisea had 8 games by age 24. That is a minimum salary player with zero upside.

Problem is both received 2 year deals. I wonder how much Greig will receive with his upgrade? I reckon between $220k and $300k.

 

[TheRam]

He gets fewer one on one opportunities at the Tigers, so more of his runs are hit ups rather than hitting gaps.

But supposedly they have a pack that is so much better then ours that they just offloaded one of their excess quality forwards to us.

He should be thriving at the Tigers.

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Maybe we should have signed Leniu on $525k instead? Knowing us we’d have preferred to pay him $700k because we think it’s a lower number.

No, we should have gotten Aaron Woods when he was available. Manly trumped us again.

 

[King-Gutho94]

No, we should have gotten Aaron Woods when he was available. Manly trumped us again.

I sense a bit of sarcasm here

I dont think Manly won a game since Sharon joined.

Its been all downhill since he joined 5 weeks ago.

Bulldogs, Sharks, Tigers, Dragons did nothing when Sharon was there either.

I could throw in NSW for 5 years as well.

 

[Sensei Cobra]

I get it, he improves our team. Who says we are paying 600k? Perhaps we’ve offered an extra year at a reduced rate or the Tigers are chipping in. There’s plenty of variables that we don’t know the details of. I’ll leave that to those whose job it is to balance the cap. They’ve done a pretty good job of it at late.

Joe Ofa improves our team immediately. I’d be happy to get him into the side.

Pretty much this

none of us know the specifics of the deal so why worry about stuff you have no idea about.

no doubt he improves our squad my main concern is that IMO our middles are ok and I see greater need in improving our hooker and 1 or 2 outside backs
