"I do think eventually Lomax will end up in Melbourne, but to the eels credit they are making it as painful and as long as possible to get to that point. As long as we can drag it out and pull storm through the mud our job is done. "
"Maybe centre or 6"
"V'Landys initially made two claims about NRL players leaving for R360. First was a very general threat: he said if they negotiate with R360 they get a 10 year ban. The second was a specific, legally-vetted threat: if they sign they get a 10 year…"
"It doesn't mean contracts don't mean anything, it just means the conditional release doesn't mean anything. It means we shouldn't have offered the conditional release. Instead it meant our options were to either say "No, you're staying" or "Yes, you…"

Matty Johns is dopier than his brother then again they're both dopey
I reckon Papa will backflip on the Tigers
Yer I wouldn't hold much weight in this stuff nobody knows how this will pan out
I'm extremely confident we will keep moses, Brown is the worry. The roosters were the main threat of stealing Brown from us but with the emergence of manu in the 5/8 position I think the roosters are now more likely to drop off chasing Brown and move manu to 5/8, if not the eels should go after manu.
I dont subscribe to that thought,
I think Hodgson for Muppet we dont lose much if anything.
I think if Taupau signs he is an upgrade as a forward bench rotation option
Nuikore has already left our team the way he is playing.
The big one is ICE. Thats a big loss, hopefully he backflips
The rest of the boys leaving are replaceable.
We have Mitch and Dylan for next year, as long as they perform then we resign them, the money will be their. What we cant compete with is the Rorters and their end of playing business contracts that keep skirting salary cap rules, If they want one of pur players.
Yeah yeah let them write us off. We will be top team again next year
Papa will back flip. I honestly think we're looking better next year. We just need a good centre for Opacic and we'll be sweet. We should be going all guns blazing for the Hammer I heard he isn't happy playing on the bench atm. Would Masters be worth a go if we can't get the hammer? He's been playing in shit teams his whole career. Think he would go good for us. Also wouldn't mind picking up Turpin for the bench as well. Gives us a good backup.
Also how tf would Johns know anything about what's going on behind closed doors at Parra. I never liked the twat he's just pulling stuff out of his ass
The assumption we will be substantially weaker next year is in my opinion not really a valid one. If we were losing our halves players I'd say ok we may be a weaker side. Papalii is a big loss if that eventuates but you don't look at a team and say they are losing a backrower they will be much weaker. Mahoney I don't think is as big a loss as people are saying. He's a good dummy half player but not irreplaceable. If Papalli backflips then we look stronger next year not weaker
