I’d be shorting the dolphins haaaSo Harry, based on your statement above, how does that
bode for the Dolphins for the remainder of the season?

Supposedly from a qld team so at least we can breathe easyThe Telegraph is reporting that a high profile Queensland nrl star and state of origin player has been accused of rape. Here we go again
If true, it doesnt suprise me one bit. As soon as Bennett was linked to souths it was almost a done deal he would follow him back.Being reported tonight that Dragons and Sua have not been able to agree terms for a contract extension….what’s the matter with this club… he’s our best forward by a country mile and we can’t afford to lose
Where did you hear this??Being reported tonight that Dragons and Sua have not been able to agree terms for a contract extension….what’s the matter with this club… he’s our best forward by a country mile and we can’t afford to lose him
I'd like the Dragons to replace Haran and Millward with Bennett. 3-year deal at his asking price. Let WIN/Gordons finally do something that will make a difference!‘Look what happened with Fifita’: Bennett denies Souths signing, claims he ‘hasn’t committed’ yet

Terrible optics if we let another slip through our grasp. Especially as he is already here and has been publicly professing that he wants to stayPer WA Today (Chammas): Crichton could earn more than $800,000 a season at a rival club, although the NSW and Australia back-rower may be prepared to accept slightly less to remain at Bondi Junction. Several clubs are watching the situation with interest, including the Dragons, Rabbitohs, Panthers and Knights.
The Dragons have registered an interest in Crichton after being unable to come to terms with their own off-contract back-row star Jaydn Su’a. The Red V remain hopeful Su’a will stay, although the parties have been unable to agree to terms despite months of negotiations.
If we don't get this deal done, what an absolute farce. The pay discrepancy is reportedly not much at all, just get the f**king deal done what is wrong with you people? The amount of money we have is absurd, just go a little higher
It'd be nice if our club could do it's business without it constantly playing out in the media. But we're apparently not capable of that (unless it's re-signing Michael Molo).... and I guess us fans perpetuate the cycle by clicking and reading and sharing these stories around. I've got that sinking feeling about Su'a now though...They really need to fix this mid season contract stuff and let the fans just enjoy their footy.
All we ever talk about is player movement.
Here we are mid season and the fans are talking about Lomax leaving, Su’a potentially leaving, where will JDB be next year, can we get Talagi from Parra.
Wouldn’t it be nice during the season to just enjoy footy?
NRL is a media circus.
It doesn't look good does it Victoire? I just think that while we do have money in the kitty to offer good coin to Su'A, his 3 or 4 year term might be a sticky point but besides this, like many players lately, they look at either being closer to family and friends, surroundings, lifestyle and the big one of course is being able to win games often and not now and then with a view to reaching the finals more or less every year. In sport, you play to win and while getting plenty of money is a huge incentive, it is the winning factor which in my days of playing competitive sport was my biggest aim.It'd be nice if our club could do it's business without it constantly playing out in the media.

All fair points you make but Sua and JDB are our best forwards. I think paying a bit of a premium for quality players is reasonable. Of course, JDB owes a lot to the club and we don’t know what sort of a premium Sua is seeking so I’m speculating just by discussing this as I have no idea what’s actually going on in these negotiations.no one player is bigger than the club - over pay for one because he plays well and we return to top heavy unbalanced squads. Su'a has had an offer on the table higher than any other club is willing to pay for him. Him not signing is all on him not us.
Too many short term thinkers here unable to actually see a vision for the future ... like overpaying JDB for his sunset years f**k me. Allow a bloke with runs on the board to see through his vision.
In 3 years JDB wont be here, Flano will .. i am in with him not some "family first spouting merkin" whose issues stem wholly from not putting his family first years ago.
We need players who are 100% committed to us as a club who want to be with us through thick and thin, not wanting to take us for one last ride.
