[Poupou Escobar]

Which I’m eating on the shitter

 

[Cumberland Eel]

FFS Taumoepenu top 30 2024

 

[JokerEel]

Top 30 in 24?

 

[Cumberland Eel]

Maybe it’s similar to the Mataele contract with Dev contract in ‘23 & Top 30 in ‘24.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Top 30 in 24?

If the merkin wants to impress me he better be in the top 24 in ‘30 ffs

 

[Gary Gutful]

...and get rid of the grease in his hair.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I think this is him. Big bloke, but will turn 24 the year he joins our top 30:


Better than turning 30 the year he joins our top 24 but.

Excellent news!

 

[King-Gutho94]

Pou is going to have a headache trying to create a table to end of 2031.

 

[hineyrulz]

Brown is going to be pretty lonely on his own in 2031, FFS O’Neill!!!

 

[Gazzamatta]

Brown is going to be pretty lonely on his own in 2031, FFS O’Neill!!!

So he signed a 2 year deal that has a 6 year player option from 2026 to 2031?

I know players have had 1 or 2 year player options in their contracts but never 6 years

yeah, sounds like it

 

[Noise]

I know players have had 1 or 2 year player options in their contracts but never 6 years

There’s a player option for 2026-28, if he takes up that one then there is another option for 29-31.

 

[Twizzle]

According to the Cumberland Throw, its 2 X 3 year opitions
