He's 35 and it's starting to show in his game. For the rest of the year maybe but I wouldn't want him for next year or onwards as he'd just block our junior development
I'm with you LB, beggars can't be choosy, he could be very handy in the right circumstances.
I don't hold petty grudges. He would start as a reserve for Reserve Grade and then we see where he fits to suit our needs. There is a few things he coud teach our young forwards in circumstances of their development.
He for example would have more mongrel in him than anyone else in our current pack.
No way in the world. He was supposed to sign with us and was virtually a done deal , then flipped . Wouldn't offer him a lifeline if we were a player short and had to forfeit.
From memory he was literally on the massage table at Parra training when his phone rang, he left and then announced as a Bronco. Yeh F*** him. Go and play Q Cup old mate.
Yup,and that was after he sooked in the media about Des not releasing him to play for us mid season leading up to the GF. Sooked and sooked about wanting to play for us , then when he finally as far as running through the medical process , he gets what he decides is a better offer and off he trots .
Now he gone and fucked up , obviously still sooking , he can get well and truely fucked.
"Last time I went through Abu Dhabi transit lounge , he was sitting there waiting on Roy Spagnolo to send him details for his connecting flight . I didn't have the heart to tell him. Just told him Ricky Stuart and the boys are lookimg forward to his…"
"He has not kicked on...as a centre probably the worst defensive centre in the league. Doesnt have hands or a pass....just cant see him progressing actually he is almost as bad as Sean Russell"

1 year deal for the rest of the year, we have 1 million in cap space might aswell use it
For this year? Sure why not.

Whats the price of mongrel?
Well even better he would be super cheap this year being halfway through. Might only cost around $200k for him maybe less.
Jesus christ guys why do you want us to sign players for the sake of signing players.
I'd rather play our Harold Matts props than sign Marty Taupau. Fucking hell.
For this year it would not hurt to get some results. He can help for this year. If we signed him for 2026 forget it.
