Yes, but Melbourne don't overpay to keep those guys, and don't estimate the toughness of Junior. You listen to most players and they'll tell you he's a nightmare to tackle.
Melbourne don't pay market value for anyone , apparently...... price is irrelevant, we need to do,it to win a comp. so we have to make it work. Teams don't win comps without having experienced imports in their ranks for the young blokes to learn off somewhere alone the line. Our slow as fuck development is proof of that.

The Panthers just won a title without any high priced imports. BTW, development is always slow.

Not true.
They poached Kikau from Cowboys, Korosau from Manly, Capewell from Sharks, Pangai from Broncos.
Sure they don't have as many recruits as other clubs but they still do it to patch up important gaps.
If they didn't nab Korosau or Kikau there is no way they land their premiership.

Kikau did come from Cowboys before he made a name for himself. Api was let go by Gould from Panthers at Ivan's last stint. Manly didn't want him and Cleary was happy to have Api return. Sorensen and Capewell were unwanted at Sharks. Both careers sky rocketed since joining Pennies. Homesick Capewell is the buy off the century for Broncos. Pangai was at the right place and time with nothing to do till next year. What a player sad to see them go.
"Poppa, I know you get frustrated with this lot on the forum. I'm a couple of decades behind you but, I'm approaching 50 and I'm finding myself suffering fools less and less lightly."
"Well said Carlos. I'm so over folks on this forum pissing on Gutho. He was a warrior for us and his moving on was timely.
That's not a criticism of him or us as a club."
"Couldn't agree more. That's changed the entire landscape of the game and some rosters weren't built for a last minute rule change by ’Rubga League’ and his apprentice, ’Yah’.
No surprises we not only won the fixture but were competitive from jump…"
"Highly doubt they sign Fletcher. Between Fletcher and Sanders in SG ball we had Brettle in 2024. He playing halfback with Renzo at 6. Storm signed him the following year and he guided Storm to win JF last year. Pretty sure they rather keep…"

korisou was at souths first
Yeah Brett, "like Luke Bailey 4 Titans or Glen Lazrus 4 storm?
Or what Dallas Weston and Ray Strudwick did 4 Parra?
Getting tired of these rumours already.
It isn't a rumour, he has declined his option.
I thought this blog was a gee up, brett, but you make me fear it's true.
He was strong this year, maybe strong enough to start the window sliding shut if he leaves.
He should play where he feels most valued.
