From what I understand he will play out his contract. He won't be with us next year
unless somehow he agrees to go the penriff via a swap deal. in which case he would have to really hate the joint

Start Merrin in the front row week in, week out all season and give him long minutes every game. Designate his role as first hit-up every time.
First post. Long term Dragon supporter, long term browser here.
Speaking to a Panthers fan this morning they are spewing to loose any of these 2 players for Merrin.
Bennett would not pay a front rower more then $300k but not backrowers. If we land Docker this year and then Nappa next year and we already have Packer then we are way ahead.Docker is not a bad player at all. Plum or Manu are no slouch. If Saints get 2 of these guys for Merrin the forwards depth is looking pretty good although at the cost of a gun forward. These guys will definately add some steel. They hit pretty hard. We are getting some much needed aggression in the forwards.
Bennett did say no forward is worth more than 200k and Saints are offering Mez 600k+ and will make him the highest paid forward in their history so it's not as if Saints have not tried to keep Mez. There is only so much you can do. I am sure Mullholland knows what he is doing. In the past Saints would let them go and have no back up plan for players now they seem to have back up plans for players that leave which is pleasing. Speaking to a Panthers fan this morning they are spewing to loose any of these 2 players for Merrin. That is if it happens which I hope.

Hah... hahahaha
And so has the salary cap, He would not pay Justin Poore more then $300k in 2009 so it would be $500k now ?maguire just re-signed last month at 450-500k a season
So channel 7 have been reading this forum
It is interesting everyone is certain its Penrith.
I don't trust anything the media or player managers say.
Wait for confirmation.
I fear that Nighty and Creagh may be our last juniors to be 1 club men in a long time. I hope I am wrong but it is looking scary.
Correct...Cronulla makes more sense in terms of location + The added bonus for Merrin to be reunited with Steve Price.
