If this is true we are a force to be reckoned with!

Kinda feel sorry for the guys who tried to work themselves up through the system

Hope we didn't pay too much either

Israel Folau signs four year deal with Broncos
Written by: LeagueUnlimited.com

Melbourne Storm centre Israel Folau has signed a four-year deal with the Brisbane Broncos, beginning in 2009.

Folau made the announcement last night in the Storm dressing room following the 2007 premiers 10-6 loss to the Sydney Roosters.

The deal with the Broncos is understood to be worth a staggering $2 million.

More details as they come to hand.

 

[Brownie.Kougari]

$500, 000 a season!!!

I'd like to see our salary cap now, who's getting the boot?

 

[Dazzat]

Hodges on one side, Folou on the other ...

 

[icewind]

i don't believe. surely not. id like folau but not for that much. :x

 

[Renowned League Expert]

Waste of money, if you ask me. I think he's promising -- but certainly nothing more, at this stage.

 

[hineyrulz]

I wonder how Hodge's arguebly the best centre in the game is feeling at the amount of money being paid for Folau. It's not like the Bronc's to pay over for a player no matter how good they are.

 

[Mr Saab]

Lockyer...Hodges....Israel....Hunt.....Wallace

Not a bad backline.

 

[Dutchy]

no announcement was made about it and how do you explain what Izzy told me before the Manly trial? Izzy told me he will stay if he can.

:lol: dweeb

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

lol where are all the wankers who were screaming up and down about the roosters cheating the cap to sign folau?

 

[gong_eagle]

Next big signing, Lotti to become a bronco fan :lol:

That article says it's a 4 year, $1.6 million deal

 

[icewind]

400k isn't quite as bad as 500k, and maybe its up to 1.6m based on performance, but still..

wonder how much bennet had to do with this signing

 

[Slick]

Massive news, what a backline the Broncos are going to have. Wonder if his coach will follow him?
