No I doubt it
700k gets you top shelf centres not a promising junior.
450k
He was a promising junior two years ago. Nobody expected the entire team to shit the bed this year. I doubt he’s on $700k but $600k wouldn’t surprise me. He extended when he was 20 years old and one of our best in a grand final year.

Anyway, Suitman correctly points out that none of us know what he’s on so it’s not worth discussing. We should all just shut the f**k up and only talk about stuff we can agree on, like food and holidays.

Lately, I've really been enjoying and smashing pork gyros....

It will prove the club management knows what it’s doing, and by extension, you were wrong all along for questioning them.
If you wish and hope long enough, one day your Brad will return and you can whack it to determined mediocrity once more.

The rest of us will content ourselves with what appears to be a bright future with a promisingly inspired decision maker at the helm….

I’ve been happy with the decision makers since 2019. They are still at the club.

So we wouldn’t pay Reed Mahoney 600k but we gave Penisini 700??

Chammas is sped
We all know why. We had a young dummy half coming through that's pathway would have been blocked by Reed staying.

The coach didn't want him here.

Anyway I don't think Reed was worth 650k-700k anyway. All he has is niggle and a above average kicking game.

The issue wasn't Reed leaving it was who we replaced him with since and the depth in that position

That semi final loss to Manly showed how his grubby and niggly tactics are a negative and it can backfire.

Take a listen starting around the 30-minute mark, where they discuss some of the contract figures for our players with these options. Penisini is reportedly on over $700k, and Brown is at $1m. Honestly, our salary cap still feels way out of balance. I get that these figures are a bit inflated, but now Gutherson seems like a bargain at $875k for 2025.


Thanks BA
Thanks MON.

Yes nobody knows. Recently read Reece Walsh's 4 year contract reported at $4.4m to $5m in the same paper over different days.

Says a lot about that carcass of a sport.

Suaalii has been given an Australian jersey without playing a professional game beforehand.

Does playing at Kings High School really count.

I never saw enough in his game while being a pretty good player to demand such hype & rep jerseys..

I didnt like Madge giving him a NSW jersey either.
Remember the days of Sailor and Roger’s, when rugby was going to decimate league?
