*Freddy Lussick

We are going for the whole set of Lussicks

 

[parra pete]

Getting them by the Gallen..

 

[Twizzle]

 

[Soren Lorenson]

We should offer him a 12 month layover.

Who's the boss?

I honestly wouldn’t want him. I’ve never liked his “Hectic Cheese” persona. Probably a top fella in real life but no thanks.

 

[Eelogical]

I hope they do, but it's a double edged sword scenario. Bellamy 'demands' excellence, and the results are there for all to see. Taking out the fact for a moment that it's the Storm in this case, the question has to be posed about player transfers beyond the upcoming season. I can't see one positive about it all under the current system. So what are the options? Cut the player free, and let the club commit elsewhere or hope that he sees out his contract with the same enthusiasm before he gave notice? Caving in will only attract others to do the same.

The positive is that the players, who want some certainty in their future employment, don't decide to just sign with the ESL or rugby union or whatever other non-NRL organisation is willing to poach our athletes.

Don't act like the NRL has all the power. The top players know that they are more valuable even than the clubs.

I reckon the NRL secretly love it. It keeps them in the papers and the news cycle churning.

If there was no contract negotiations for 2023 what would be in the news atm.

There wouldn't be enough news as most squads have 2022 roster complete.

Rugby league is the news everyday atm and we are less then 2 weeks out from the ashes where cricket normally has full coverage instead most talk is all about player contracts

If what I think is what you're saying is correct then they can all go and get f**ked.

Can't people see that this is a bad thing? They say that any news is good news but I disagree. A reality check is in order for the NRL, clubs and players going forward.

 

[The Predictor]

I think Paulo needs to f**k off, his always been a $$ man, and if he stays it means we had to pay through the nose, not worth it!!!! piss off Junior

Really??
How do you know this?
Do you know Junior?
Do you know how much we have offered him?
Do you know whether he is happy with the offer?
f**k you post some dead set bullshit sometimes.

I agree its shithouse rules are stupid and hopefully this off season might force change.

Its a BS argument from the RLPA that players need 12 months if they need to uproot families and what not.

FMD they get paid shitload of money. A lot of people have to move states within a week and they arent on big money.

I am just saying i reckon the NRL wouldn't mind that this is keeping them in the news cycle as long its not an off field atrocity

Fair enough.

 

[lucablight]

Also have bulk nuffies in their top 30

Funny now even with the reserves for their nuffies they finished higher than us on the ladder this season.

 

[the phantom menace]

And piss Reed Mahoney out the gate early if it comes off.

And it's even better than being in the news every day for players' unwanted sexual contacts!
