Would We Pay $1m a Season for RADRADA in 2019

[mickeylane]

Radrada off to Union for 8 mnths next season and then vowed to return to Eels late next year or season commence 2019.

Being proven money hungry with his current contract increased to $450k a year to avoid him leaving for Rugby this year there's no doubt upon his return if a club waived $1m per season in front of him he would jump at it and loyalty out the window along the way.

My question is if Dragons had the salary cap available would you offer RADRADA the $1m in 2019.. He certainly won't come back damaged from Union that's for sure... For me he's as good as Jonah Lomu was - a beast of a winger that's truely unstoppable.. Would u make him the first ever $1m winger...?

This deal will be on the cards next year and we will be reading about it where one club will offer him ridiculous $$ - we should be one of those clubs irrespective of youngsters coming thru...
Yes? no?

 

[ALSGI]

Nope. Too fast, too much xfactor for Dragons footy. I'd rather get Mcgroan back from Toronto.

 

[hewi]

Yes , no hesitation.

Did you hear Gus and Mimis discussing him?

When Nighty retires at the end of 2018 that opens the left wing spot. I would be looking at a star like Vunivalu or Semi for sure. I don't know about $1m a season though, that's insane money for a winger.

I know Semi does a lot of work other than just finishing tries, but if it risks our salary cap position on a winger, then i'd be willing to pass.

 

[Frank Facer]

NO WAY. I would love us to have Semi as one of our wingers. He is probably the best winger in the game, but as for paying a winger 1 mil a season, that is stupid with a capital S.

Put it this way - DUGAN at $800k a season or RADRADA at $1m per season.. Who's better value because we were about to spend that sort of money for DUGAN.

Explain to me how a centre in Jack Bird is worth a $1m a year next year w Broncos but RADRADA a 100% game winner is not.. He's playing one position outside Bird..

 

[ALSGI]

Too f**king fast.

 

[Smurf]

$800k and a big yes from me

 

[JohnnoMcJohnno]

No thanks. Happy with McDonald and KFFL, and $700k to spare.

 

[Old Kogarah Boy 1]

No thanks.
The guy has proven that he'll go walkabout at a moments notice.
He may be s good player but l don't think he's a team player.
Ronald McDonald is not our answer either so.....
Nah, let's keep our juniors coming thru.

 

[SET2JT]

Tough call. He most probably deserves that money. Genuine superstar who can break a game wide open. If we had some 3rd parties that could chip in 500k ill take him.

 

[Souths Till I Die]

Souths payed 700k for a winger so why the f**k not.

 

[mobels]

None of the top teams pay high $$$ for wingers. So no, as great as Semi is I wouldn't pay anything above 500k for him, paying high coin for wingers is how we nearly got the spoon in 2013.

 

[ALSGI]

Does anybody remember when we'd jump out of our seats when our winger was in half a space, anywhere on the field ?
Ah, those were the days.
These days it's cringe, shut one eye and hope for the best.

 

[Coffs dragon]

Yes definitely worth $1mil Fijian dollars which is about $620k Aust.dollars plus throw in some Kava

Still, he's no Blacklock in his prime.
Bet he can't even do a backflip let alone
a wheelstand.

 

[SBD82]

Should we? Probably not.

Would we? With our board? Probably.

 

[SBD82]

Souths payed 700k for a winger so why the f**k not.

I'm starting to think that you might be one of the good guys STID.

Ever think of coming over to support the greatest club in the world?
