The longer Parra wait to sign him the less they have to pay, and considering he ain't back from injury till mid season I'll be waiting as long as possible to sign him.
Won't be back until R17. Could be a bs rumour. The only way i can see this happening is if we get him virtually for free for 2025 then sign him for 26.
I can see it happening if come mid year we are sort of in a rut but close to semis, Ryles looks to him as a spark. By then we would get him for peanuts practically. Nobody will touch Smith til the round he is back anyway, but then Roosters would have paid a majority of his 2025 salary.
" I absolutely love this move by the club, I said in another blog we needed to show some teeth and let the sleeping giant of the NRL let all and sundry know we are no pushover."
"This is a reputation reset for the Parramatta Football Club, everyone within the rugby league world has now taken notice an will be thinking twice about trying to screw us. This is a bold move to publicly state they are suing someone and I will be…"
"This is the strong stance we've all been hoping for from the club. Parra by putting this out in public like they have calling out the Storm like they have is gingtonbe huge. The NRL has no leg to stand on, RPLA is nowhere to be found and for once…"
"Fine by us. Yeah we get nothing out of it on the field, but morale wise we set a reputation. By the time this is all sorted R360 could be up and going again anyway."

Is this sorta reliable rumour?
I do prefer having a straightforward service dummy half for our team, but I think Smith can be decent at that.
If we get a favourable contract a la Addo Carr, then I am all for it.
I actually won't mind him. I think getting him and even releasing Lussick (but he can stay) would be great. Especially on a two year deal.
Him and Hands can rotate in game and Smith can cover lock and Hands can cover halves too.
Just remembered he is injured for a half the season. Yeah, na.
So...this means we were naughty?

Isn't he out for most of next season?.

17? I heard Round 10 the earliest.
It's round 17 at the earliest. Smith said it himself
All good, just going off what i heard from other outlets a few months ago.
