Rumours and Stuff

[Poupou Escobar]

Very effective in defence too. Behind only Alvaro as a middle defender in our team (maybe Moreoa too), but better go forward than either.

 

[Glenneel]

Manu 380, Tepai 530, Evans 450, guth 400, Scott 412

Not sure Guth would be on anything like that unless his initial contract upgraded. We did get him because Moanly didn't want him and he hadn't played much fg so I'd expect $150k-200k.

 

[Glenneel]

most people would be as happy as a c**k in a merkin shop if they were only earning $300k a year

Always makes me wonder why some talented players continually shoot themselves in the foot and blow their careers. I never did a job that I really enjoyed and never earned $300k yet some players keep misbehaving. Do they actually think about the real world and how hard and rare it is to earn that sort of money.

 

[Glenneel]

Mannah isn't on $600k plus!! BA isnt that stupid!!

I'd like to hope so too Josh but I just quote what I've been told but obviously don't really know.

Your source at the club seems pretty selective with his inside tips.

Gutherson re-signed with us at the end of the 2016 season, extending his stay through to the end of the 2019 season:

Mannah played well in 2017. Best year in a while Imo.

Agreed.

I don't get the Mannah hate.

From https://www.totalfootystats.com.au/...a-eels/tim-mannah&disp_year=2017#.Wne8JnM7bqA:

Tim made 212 hit-ups in 2017, and ran for 2,122m - 10.01m per run.

Not too shabby imo.

It's because for the most part every run is the same. He doesn't have a big run which excites fans so they think he's bad. But having players like Mannah and Alvaro allows us to have forwards that excel in one area but lack in others.

He also allows us to spend more on players who touch the ball more.

Not if he’s taking up $900k+ of the cap

I heard he's on 1mill.per eyebrow. I can't remember where, but it sounded right.

Yeah but $100k is marquee allowance. Just quoting what I’ve heard

Do we have any info on the team coming to Perth in the next week or so. Have to go to Freo to watch, is it just a token team or are we seeing the best of the juniors?

It's regular competition so every available player will be there. I believe the team will be named tomorrow arvo. But from what I gather it should be full strength or very close, they're a fantastic group of young men and footballers.

Timmy taking that 50% home team discount.

What a team man, growing a massive monobrow so that he doesn't take up so much cap space!

Will be full strength
Best time to meet Perth is first round before all their hammerings (lost 96-0 to Parra last year)
Also good to get the boys away on "camp" so to speak
go check them out

Tim's the new Semi.

Put Tim on wing
