the Spence touring our centre of excellence today. I heard we are signing him before June 30 for 26-27 only. He wants a PNG contract. Not sure if we should bother. Thoughts?

Hell yes. He's a high impact enforcer that's exactly what we're missing, and have been missing someone like him for a while.
When you add him to our pack of Tuivaiti (Engine Power), Moretti (Speed), Matele & Brown (Youth & Power), Spencer brings in that Enforcer-type player that is both high impact and game changing which is a point of difference in our pack that increases team balance.
Hopefully we get him for a reasonable deal, and he's coming to us for increased game time compared to trying pay him out of his Roosters contract.
This was a quote from Spencer himself on the weekend:
“When people test my integrity and loyalty to this club, it makes me a bit angry. I hold myself to high standards in terms of integrity and loyalty. To all the Roosters fans, I’m here to stay. I can’t wait to keep on performing week in week out. Everyone in these four walls knows about my loyalty to my brothers and this club.”
"Yeah can see this being a contract for him to retire o; and yeah good on him.
As others have said we had better have some decent signings in the pipeline for 27 or we are going to be in for more pain aka Clubber Lang styles...
"No shade on their managers for doing their job - I assume if we wanted to retain them we would have already had the convos and locked them up so I assume they've been told that they're not in our longer term plans. You don't sound out Super League…"

If we are signing Spencer Leniu why can't we just give him a multi year deal, he's 25 and will most likely start for us.
How true is this
Hell yes.

Wasn't Leniu just in an interview the other day saying he is staying at Chooks, and departure stories are unfounded?
Always possible it's a "Phil Gould" BS lie but he still said not going anywhere
That means he's definitely going and soon. Remember lomax "i am contracted to Parramatta blah blah blah"
Hahahaha 😆 😂

Is this the same source you got that Hanny was going to be coach and Brian Smith coaching director?
