Rumours and Stuff

Good player but he re-signed with the Warriors shortly after Mahoney signed with the Dogs. He either f**king loved NZ or he's on massive overs. If we were going to pay big money for a hooker we might as well have kept Mahoney. As it was, the cap was tight and we already had three big money players in the spine. Only Melbourne and Easts can afford that. Even Penrith had to let Koroisau leave when Edwards and Luai got too expensive. That's why we lost Mahoney. That's why we replaced him with Hodgson and later Lussick. If we get a better hooker now it's because Iongi is much cheaper than Gutherson. You need to think about this stuff, not just assume clubs should sign or re-sign the best available player at every position.

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.

Look. I don't really care. Stop going into detail and taking it so seriously. Hodgson was f**ked. I'm not going to analyse it
I've got bigger problems. Flatulence

Agree here he is a May so it was only time before he did do something stupid
True. But Ill give him the benefit of the doubt till I know better. Not expecting a front rower to be particularly bright. Just depends if another FR in Ryles can keep him focused.
