Chamas said that he doesnt fit their culture, can’t take the Westie out of the boy I guess. Probably doesn’t drink lattes.

Also said the Eels have real concerns over Guthos knees holding up, but Flanagan is prepared t9 take the risk.
The same feedback I was told by our friend who works for the Eels.

The comment was “everyone knows his body unfortunately is barely holding together.”

He may go well at Dragons, but the Eels staff believes he won’t go much longer.

He is on $950K over 2 years I believe. If we can sign him for around $400-450K then he would be great value for money and would help in addressing our weakness up front for next season. A solid 1st grade front rower on that sort of money is the sweet spot for any salary cap. Isn't elite but isn't crap either, not many clubs would offer him more and he will be value for money.

I'd offer him 3 years on $400-450K and that should do it. He may even surprise and improve a little further with extra fitness and maturity as many front rowers do. Good unexpected value if we can get it done.
Why would he take a paycut? Isn't his worth increasing as he gets more experience?

I always wanted a Mongoose. I had a shit Target home brand BMX with a retro-fitted Dura MX-2 gooseneck which made f**k all difference to its performance. Gooseneck cost more than the bike.

OKay if you say so, but I'll count the chickens after they have hatched. After all this is Parra not Trump and the art of the deal.
What part do you mean if I say so? I’d argue it’s pretty irrefutable that rookie coaches don’t do what he’s already done with our roster. Credit to him. He’s doing it his way and it’s sink or swim.
