The Rumours Thread

[Wolfgang90]

Wonder if we do get him will we play him at lock or on the edge? It's a bit of a free hit to get him. We have $$$ to spend & our young fwds still need a few years developing before they're starting players imo. He certainly brings size & skill.

It's reported we'll pay out Corey Allan his 2024 contract in order to free up a roster spot.

That's not entirely correct. Long story.

Just so you know, this particular forum was established in 2003. It's forerunner started earlier. Time flies when you're having fun.

Any archives available ? How far back can I explore ?

I would love to see Flanno having a secret coffee with Max King after this is released. Actually better still, Ivan Cleary.

It would be great if the tables were turned on Gus if Max King either leaves the Dogs or the Dogs have to pay more freight for him. Not being able to jag Terrell May away from the Roosters would have also put a few dents in Gus's smug face.

There's a few ways to do it. The search function at the top has some advance features.

Or you can go the forum page and click on the last page number (number 850 goes back to 2003). Btw, I have the name 'Anonymous' back there, after we got hacked... another long story.

If you want to go back further, there's the Classic threads section at the bottom of the main message board. That has the NineMsn/ LWOS archives from about 2001 (LU forerunner).
The Jubilee Avenue threads are all there in the JA section, that was saved in 2007 just before NineMsn/ WORL died, the posts there go back to 2000.

Saving and migrating the WORL and LWOS stuff was a mammoth task. LU's IT genius Coby had to deal with some pushback from NineMsn but we got there in the end.

Unfortunately all the old bulletin board and email group stuff from the 1990s is gone. Things like the St George E-Group (which Yahoo only closed in 2022) and the original Jubilee Avenue stuff (started by Glenn Baker).

They have the secret coffee meeting in a cafe at the Dogs Leagues Club.

back to the subject re Max King

he must be on our list

2024 contract finishes and the guy in a good team would be a serious asset

ball playing post contact is very impressive and is coming into his prime like AFB did last two years ie right age right size right time in the NRL

I can tell you he was one of the most liked guys by fellow Storm players.

 

[Parko1310]

Unbelievable and hilarious that Leilua wants a 4 year deal. Who does he honestly think he is? 4 year deals aren't for your calibre of player I'm afraid Luc, take two years or jog on..
