" It's reported Oregon Kaufusi has not activated his player option with the Sharks for the 2025 season and is therefore a free-agent and able to sign with rival clubs. " - Fox Sports

Again, if Reg was that big a loss how have other teams baulked at his length demands? All the clubs seem to agree with where we are, he is good but ageing and declining. He wanted 3 years, we wanted his coin to bring in more depth and avoid relying on Ron Massey players again.
In a 5 year stretch you will get more value out of Kaufusi than RCG, since RCG will retire soon and Kaufusi would be starting all those 5 years.
Too many injuries and is hitting 30. We tried Lodge in 2019, that time when we were moving on Mannah and looking for a replacement, but he declined to stay in Brisbane, we gave him a nice deal. We then moved to Welch, then RCG after Welch's injury.
Lodge i would say is not the right choice for us, nothing to do with personality, more so where he is in his footy career.
"I did modern day as 1998 onwards as I didn't see them play, as some here haven't. Where I believe majority of people here have seen all the modern day players play.
Plus it frees up some spots like we all know who 5/8 will be but now no idea."
"Old vs New. Pre 1998 Eels best team wearing the original Gold Jerseys vs post 1998 Eels best team wearing today's Blue jersey. The best from both eras playing against each other in a virtual stadium online. Jack Gibson coaching Gold, Brian Smith…"
"He played 134 of his 264 games as a winger. Didnt complain once like a Lomax when required on the wing. Was a team man through and through. He deserves to be in the Modern Day Best Eels team somewhere. Perhaps now that we have 6 interchange players…"
" I understand the modern day theory. It has to be the players that would work in the modern day game, But the theory should include how a player from the say 80s would perform given the modern day technology and training regime.
You cant simply…"

Why not just keep Reg?
He doesn't want to stay, fair dinkum....not happy with 2 years extension
Ok didnt know that we offered a two year extension on top of 25 and he said no ? interesting ....

Kaufusi is not good enough, never got past potential....would not want these type of players back!
Just shows how dumb Cronulla were in paying him big money.
Reg is 31 and past his best.
Oregon still has his best years ahead of him
I like it.
26yrs old. probbaly same rate. I would
Yeah adnan, he ain't going to demand much more than the roughly $400k he is on at Cronulla right now.
That prop at manly who went nuts in new York I think is free . He seems settled now and cheap .lodge
