  • It would be a new challenge for him, when he's on, he is the best left centre in the game, it's a no for me.

    • That's it Michael, if you get 24 games out of him, you are winning an extra 3-4 games a season with him alone. Issue is, availability.

      • He wont play 24 games lol.  Lucky if he played 10.  Sorry lb but we can't have him at Parramatta.  It would be a crazy move.  He's missed more than half the games in the last 3 years.  Parramatta already has massive issues with trying to find answers to the worst injury toll in the nrl 

        • Id pay 350k.take it or leave it 

  • Nope , not even for free.  More downside than upside . The baggage he brings with him wouid be like throwing fireworks in our dumpster fire. 

    • We could write an entire book on the players we have bought with baggage.

      Sandow / Corey Norman for a start and Ferguson. All had talent.

  • I'd be ok with it as a centre and goal kicker.

    Big risk but big reward 

  • We'd probably sign him for 1.5mil and bring his brother over for 600k.

  • If we are going to go for someone I'd investigate having a look at trying to land Hamaso Tabuai-Fidow.

    I think the Dolphins will try and keep Bostock and Farnworth and the dollars especially the latter who'll end up at fullback leaves the Hammer as the odd man out.

    • I saw a reel with hammer and Herbie heading out on the boat to go fishing. How do we offer that at Parramatta? Tom Gilbert was interviewed by MMM radio the other week and they asked him what he does the morning of the game. He was walking along the beach (whilst being interviewed) and then heading home for a sleep and whatever else he does before that night's match. The dolphins are sorting out a deal for hammer right now, I expect they will retain every single player they want to keep. They are a desirable destination.

      We need to adopt a strategy that's different from what you suggest. Forking out huge dollars on a select few players who deep down have absolutely no desire to represent our club other than for financial incentives will not work, in fact it is destined to fail.
