Rumours and Stuff

[Jim Swift]

He was very good.
It's sad that he is only remembered for one dropped pass.
He was much better than that one moment.

Two dropped passes. But, yes I agree he shouldn’t be remembered for only that. Hell of a player.

Apparently roosters are looking at a $1m a year deal for Farnworth. Id beat it.

winger from our glory days

Blasphemy.

Thank you.
I thought it was a move star from Hollywood

Havent watched him play except some highlights but heard a lot of positive things about him and seems pretty decent for his age

I said it a few years ago but the dogs have selected on the Bench, Spinks. He’s a good one we should look at him he will be an awesome second rower. There’s a bit of young Hindmarsh about him.

It's quite a thing for a person to go through life dealing with a fumble, bad decision or just having a meltdown in the public eye. I'll keep it to sport. Neville Glover, Paul Carige, Greg Chappell (Trevor Chappell) to name just a few. I wish all the best for NG.

Was a shit pass as well just quietly, wishing Neville a peaceful journey

Whos Neville Glover?

Seriously?

We should give him 900k a year, 10
Year deal with PO in his favour every year for the duration of the contact. MON will get this done for sure as he’s phone is ringing off the hook.

Pretty easy , when it’s from reputable sources

initial post I did say “not confirmed” ,

The follow up to the deleted post is attached

Tony (who runs badgers eels army) is one of the most respected eels fans on the planet and very close to many ex eels players, very close

I make no apologies for sharing

Thoughts with Neville and his family…View attachment 111350

That's understandable mate. It was on another fb page I saw and this page is sometimes known for posting incorrect info.

In saying that, its very sad about Glovers health. Thoughts are with him

 

[Wizardssleeve]

He's like a young Jake Arthur's

At least we’ll score a try should we ever make another GF .

Yep, he copped a lot of shit for an error in a game that could have been sorted out well beforehand.

A million Roosters dollars

We have to offer 1.5m to have any chance

I recall they said about 12 months into Demetriou's tenure at Souths he finally broke the Bennett curse then things fell apart very quickly.

Similar things have been said about Woolf. How he has broke the Bennett curse.

But reality is that Dolphins didnt make finals last year and outside of 40 mins down at Cronulla.

I reckon the Phins have been pretty pathetic this year. They got out of jail against the garbage Titans in the last 15 mins.

There probably been on par or as bad as us when you consider the opposition they have been up against and had 4 games at home already with the roster they have built.

Understandable.

We often sign movie stars from Hollywood.

Eels call for salary cap relief for players sidelined due to foul play

After being on the wrong end of two costly hip-drop tackles, Parramatta believe it is time for a debate about how the game can assist injury-hit clubs.

www.smh.com.au

A salary-cap exemption of up to $350,000 per player is available to clubs whose stars are injured during representative duty. Parramatta CEO Jim Sarantinos felt a similar mechanism could be considered for those injured during the premiership, especially if they are sidelined by foul play.

“I think it’s something that warrants looking at,” Sarantinos said. “We’ve obviously had a tough run with injuries over the last few weeks and some of them are nobody’s fault whatsoever. Others have been associated with foul play.

“Regardless, it weakens our roster and in some of those cases players have ended up with season-ending or long-term injuries.

“When you’ve got the level of attrition and injury that we’ve got at the moment, it obviously creates an opportunity for other players to step up. But it also thins out your roster.


“There are other sports globally where there are opportunities for rosters to be strengthened in circumstances where players get long-term injuries. This is such a tough and physical sport, the reality is that these injuries are going to happen.

“But there seems to be an imbalance where teams sustain long-term injuries following foul play where some other mechanism that doesn’t currently exist could potentially be looked at.”

Sarantinos added that injuries were almost always the result of accidents and that it is difficult to find an adequate replacement when a star is sidelined mid-season. However, he felt the possibility of affording relief to affected clubs was a debate worth having.

“Obviously there’s a new CBA and potentially a new contracting model that’ll come into place in the coming years,” he said.

“I think this is something that we could be having discussions about in the short term, particularly those incidents that are found to arise from foul play, acknowledging that accidents happen on the field.

“Sometimes the penalty on the club when the player has suffered the injury is completely disproportionate to the impact on the offending player.

“I can understand that you can’t necessarily have a player serve time that’s equivalent to the period of injury. And frankly, even if that happens, it doesn’t help us.”
