He has every right to earn as much money as he can while he still can. Have some faith in the bloke that he does have the desire to right this wrongs of a poor season last year. There are bigger problems with our roster besides Michael Jennings.
If he performs well on the field this season then its money well spent! Dont think however, hes worth the $800k! It depends on how he goes this year. Defensively hes great but offensively he has his moments.
Parra isn't really a club which has been able to attract top line players or compete with top clubs in recruitment. For that reason they either speculate on young players and pay overs, or give older player extra year or 2 which both carry risks.
If the team performed better as a whole, jennings would have had better opportunities in attack and would have been better supported in defence so he didn't feel pressured to make the rash decisions.
For that reason I am interested to see how he goes this year and if the addition if Paulo helps our foward pack gain momentum, I feel jennings although still being paid overs can contribute to the side and help guide some of the younger players.
I know how dare a player at the end of his career with time left to play good footy take up the best possible option for him and his family.
How dare he. I mean its definitely not the clubs fault for putting a option in a players favour. No clearly the players fault for taking that option how bloody dare he
"Zach will eventually get back into the nrl, no one hates him it's just a bigger issue in the game. These contracts are useless and storm trying to benefit from it. Eels need to get proper value in return."
"Yes Nitram, Nrl do think all fans are stupid suckers...think they showed this couldn't care less attitude to fans,back when they changed NRL GF time slot.
and obviously in their attitude towards this issue and fans major gripes about contracts not…"
"The answer to your last question is, yes they do & they don't give a toss about the intelligence or viewpoint of fans.
Thus this pathetic open for all Origin change. If it ain't broke don't fix it!"
"Great point Nitram. Like i used this anology with my mates, like saying a bloke got caught having an affair on his wife with two women. His wife took the kids and left him. Then have his mates come out and say "He's a great bloke and did all these…"

The Newcastle offer was there. Shame. Fair call shouldn't the club decide the option. Poor management

Player options are just plain dumb especially for 800k and an outside back who will not pass to boot, the club screwed it up.
what would you do if your employer said you can test the market or take $300000 more to stay and take the option.
cant do much if your forwards don’t go forward or dazey Norman is guiding you around the park.
