Rumours and Stuff

[84 Baby]

Could be to create cap space

Hey Pou... do some f**ken research!

He’s signed until the end of 2022 and I doubt for very much. There’s an article from midseason about Knights looking to tie him up longer but nothing confirmed from that. So I don’t think Best would ease their cap pressure unless they did boost his contract and now can’t afford him? If that’s the case someone needs to be fired

 

[hineyrulz]

FFS Pou!!

 

[parra pete]

If the Eels signed Best - would he be regarded as the next Bradman?..or potentially the Best centre since Cronin?

 

[84 Baby]

The next Colin Best

 

[lingard]

He'd be simply the best.

 

[Delboy]

Best is a local boy and family live in the area, doubt he is going anyway otherwise Newcastle have gone full Retread.

He’s a Gosford boy, his parents still live on Central Coast.

Still just a touch closer than Parra don’t you think???

He’s not allowed to leave the Hunter region?

He’s not allowed to leave the Hunter region?

No.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

No.

Parole conditions?

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

If the Eels signed Best - would he be regarded as the next Bradman?..or potentially the Best centre since Cronin?

He'd be 334.

 

[hineyrulz]

Parole conditions?

Yep, he’s not allowed to leave Newcastle or the surrounding area.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Yeah thats what I thought. Apparently salary cap pressure is squeezing him out. You have to remember that Ponga is on a big contract, they just signed Frizell on big money, they're trying to re-sign Pearce and you add Chambers to that mix who would be on decent coin.

So the obvious strategy would be to not sign Chambers.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

Yep, he’s not allowed to leave Newcastle of the surrounding area.

Someone mentioned he looks the type.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Someone mentioned he looks the type.

He looks like Bluto from Popeye.

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

He looks like Bluto from Popeye.

Ha. Actually the one mentioned was Spike the big dumb bulldog from those old cartoons with Tweety and Sylvester I think. So yeah, pretty much the same.

Are you Chester?

 

[Joely01]

Joely do you think it'll be:
14. Lussick
15. Nikoure
16. Papali'i
17. Hipgrave

I think it’s close but throw Kaufusi into the mix with the forwards as well...

Are you Chester?

Was he the little yappy one always egging him on? Yeah, probably.

Yep....it figures. Though I took you more like this....
