f**k it sign him sharks. Do whatever you can to help him with his demons and outline the do's and don'ts in his contract.

The kid can obviously play and with that he has some mental issues with the drink. He isn't the first player and sure won't be the last.

We have a playing roster that is by far the worst in the NRL. Signing Todd would only help our club And that's a fact
 

Frenzy.

Just sign him.

Of course it's gonna end badly.

It's Todd carney for fuggs sake - it's been ending badly for a decade.

But before that hapopens he might just do what he did for the Rorts.

Get us to the GF.

It'll be in his contract if he stuffs up and we cut him we owe him nothin' so it's a win win.

Just unload Pom and collis to warrington and sign him.

And he'll be chip as chips in the first place. Minimum wage and some incentives

I'm pro signing him.

FFS make him captain/coach!

I'm with you Snoopy.
Funny the club wants Ben Pomeroy but doesn't want Todd Carney.
Go Figure. :crazy:
No wonder we're potential wooden spooners

Throw him a lifeline I say with all conditions and counselling Mr Gallop would love us to say and do.

Get some wins under the belt.... climb the ladder. Get Toddy some more awards. Get some fluffy articles about how good we are for him.

Win the comp.

When he stuffs up at the pissup we can just cut him loose.

Sign him I say..... sign him now. As the Cap'n said, "crikey we could get him cheap too"

Imagine the team running out in round 1 in 2012 and Toddy in the 6.
Take a helluva lot of pressure off the The Chad in the 7.

Graham at 8.
Friggin ball players hanging out our ass either side.

Gal might'nt have to touch the ball 3 times every set.

Yep, sign him on little as possible with huge performance incentives

His signing alone would increase sponsorship before a ball is kicked

He would bring points to the team and that brings fans...

But hey we can't risk pissing off those "sponsors" who pay us 5k a year.

Keep Pom and we might live up to our spoon potential. Cronulla safe haven? Northies,Fusion,2230 spring to mind. Couldnt be a worse 'safe haven'. Having said that if you want a beer you can find one anywhere.

Carney is ripe for the taking. The deal with the Roosters is 2 way. Meaning there is more to it than meets the eye. If you heard the rumours in April, its starting to make sense.
Grab him for whatever he costs.

Then we can flick Kelly & CT.

I'm all for it. Sign him up. Tell him he can have 2 beers per try scored and 1 per try assist at the end of the season. If he clocks up a couple of cartons we'll be in a great spot.

6. Carney
7. The Chad
13. Graham
17. Kelly

Add Gards at fullback playing a Boyd like role, and Isaac De Gois, and it's a quality spine.

I know Flanno wants another half, Carney wont be it though.

look yesterday I was against it..but you know what???
we probably wont win the comp and he would definitely generate some interest in the joint.

So hell yeah ..sign him up.
Just give him dedicated drinking days.

I drink like richard Burton and I have just won another oztag grand final...it's easy to do. :)

Sign him FFS.

If he is willing to come to the sharks we would be stoopid not to offer him an incentive based contract.

What's to loose?
