"He won't be offered $2 million tax free. They're saying he'd have to earn $2.2m in Australia to be equivalent to $1.2m tax free in PNG.

"Thats assuming
a) we have cap space to afford his asking price which would theoretically be high, even for a gap year
b) he would want to come to Parra"

Jerome Luai has a week to seal the deal at the Chief's, 2 million per season tax free. He'll take it . He'll become the richest player in the league by the length of tge straight. D Brown would be earning 650 k after tax.He'll become a free agent…
"Yep, and very very valid EA, shame about round 1. I do believe that we as Eels supporters have too easily or regulary given them the benefit of the doubt or given them a pass so to speak. We have found excuses and genuinely believed in them. I have…"

Was trying to deliver the news and be kind, but yep!
That's okay if they deserve it. Hard for players to stay motivated if they're on extreme unders. They've earned it IMO
They sure have. IMO the ony way we sign a qaulity back is at the expense of Fergo and off loading a quality forward.
Crazy if we let NB go. He is the absolute driver of our forward pack. It showed when he went off injured last weekend.
Oregon Kaufusi's outstanding improvement since last season warrants an upgrade too, Mick. He'll have plenty of offers soon if we don't look after him, his manager will see to that.
Ah Yes - the good old Cash 22.
$600K (2021/2) sounds a lot if you say it slowly - in the real market it is not so great when upgrading 3 or 4 players.
Opacic, Pappa and Carty for starters will make a big dent.
We haven't seen Lussick and a couple of others perform yet
"off loading a quality forward" ??????????????
Are we really that flush in the engineroom EE?
Mate, we have plenty of talent, depth, size and balance in our forwards. Add Nuikore back into the equation and it is even stronger. I don't want to lose anyone from our current pack to pay overs for a centre. I think our engine room is just fine.
OK, I misunderstood your original comment.
One of the recruiting stategies I have liked is buying (say a centre) who can adequately fill other positions as well
centre - pinch hitter 5/8 - wing - and fill in fb.
It appears to me the days of being an out and out specialist player in any one particular position (forwards or backs) is fast becoming a thing of the past.etc. Is player versatility becoming the new normal?
Good outcome. Nice work by the club.
