Rumours and Stuff

[AnonymousLurker]

A strike backrower and centre needed to improve us overall, with a supposed over $3 million available, is it s possibility.

Love us to get Averillo

Always said Jim and Mon were awesome recruiters. Never doubted them.

I feel you
I always said TDS was good , never said he was ordinary after that manly game

 

[Timana]

No they didn’t. Last podcast they said they had no mail.

Which one? They said that Craig have been hearing this news all the time since we lost Galvin and the ppl telling him also see him at Kellyville alot as has has a a lot of frens playing at Kellyville. Then the 40 guy said something like but things arent certain for sure, just like Galvin, there are always 11th hour changes.

I haven't listened to the Instant Reaction to the gong one though

 

[Timana]

Wow, did Jim's mowing and trolley boy land one?

Does anyone need a welfare check?

I wonder did we bump up our offer in the last minute, $700k maybe..
Is that why we locked up riley first, get him cheap before offering TDS $700k?

I feel sorry for Riley

Are you sooking over TDS? Ryley Smith has outplayed him this year and TDS wants to be the main merkin at dummy half, not playing 40 minutes (at best) every week. A key side effect of signing someone to play long minutes is the expectation that they can devote a larger portion of their cap to him than a backup or limited minutes member of the top 17. Ryley Smith’s next upgrade could be $350k or more. How much do you think that leaves for another top 17 dummy half? Probably not $600k+

Hmmm

I am not sold on TDS hasn't proved his worth yet in the NRL.

Also on Jim's mowing we only seem to sign players that are on the outer of their club. If we spend anymore than 300k a season for him we have over paid.

I agree with you.

Maybe they are the ones who will negotiate with us.

Well i recall reading on here Friday the consenus was it was basically a done deal at Manly.

So was the tip off wrong or we upped the offer at the last moment and paid overs.

Anyway what a coup it solves one of our urgent needs.

Maybe Lussicks garbage showing last night forced our hand.

Why? Ryley started the year 3rd in line, and would have had no expectation he’d have played so much first grade and isn’t even on an NRL deal.

He’s not being released, and having Tallyn at the club creating competition will make him a better player in the end

We also got JDB because the Dragons didn't want him.

Most teams have 2 hookers in their rotation.

Raiders will have 3 next season ffs..

 

[Gherkin]

Can come on for Lussick towards the end of the game until Smith is back. After that can fight it out for a bench spot for the rest of the year. Hopefully he can develop over the next few years into a starting 9 and we haven’t paid too much.

Looks like he finally purchased a ride on. Great signing.

On the tigers forum they are very keen on a swap deal for Hopgood

We tried to get his last time but lowballed him. I think we may be successful on this occasion.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Gee it would be hilarious now if Api goes i am testing the market out for 2027.

And Mal comes in with a massive offer for the Bears and he has to take it

I’ll drive him to Campbelltown , and you push him out of the car whilst still in motion.

 

[Twizzle]

Well that wasn't expected

Lucky we have a good recruiting team
