"It would be competitive but would it get the deal done. Whilst I admit on the surface 950-1m appears overs I'd pay that to get the deal done. It's not overs when it's exactly what you team needs to make a massive improvement to your squad"

"Poppa I'm a fan of a Burton signing. What im saying is I don't think we are blocking Lorenzo's path if we are paying Burton right. I don't think centre would be an issue for Burton if Lorenzo becomes a must pick at some stage. He doesn't strike me…"

"Thanks Darren, when Journos asked him for comment he always looked agrieved and sought to end the discussion.
Did you know his sullen appearance belied the fact he was quite smart, matriculating in pure and applied Maths, physics and economics.
He…"

"I think you guys have a problem with Renzo as our 5/8. He is not the type of 5/8 Parra needs, unless he can defend to a certain level it will not matter how "brilliant" he is. These brilliant young players look fantastic in Reserve Grade but the…"

"surely 850k for 4 years would be competetive, starting in 27"

"longfin what do you mean best years are behind him at 26"

"100% chief there's only 1 way to see if lorenzo is up to it"

"Chiefy Chiefy where have i ever said we shouldn't sack either of the two YOU continually referr to on every blog that comes up . Im beginning to think one or both must have put the hard word on Mrs Chiefy or something . Most of us probably agree…"

"iiongi is only 22 now yehez"

"So after one game? And he was playing like a fullback "

" 
 I think the Burton/ Moses combination is perfect. The issue is the price tag attached to Burton and having upto 2.5 million invested in the halves,  especially when the Eels are currently struggling with quality in several areas. Signing Burton…"

"When to debut Lorenzo seems to an easy call. All Ryles has to do is ask himself if he is doing it to bring the lad on or whether we are looking to him to help us win. We have annointed him a chosen one, so it would behoove us to not butcher his…"

"All reports are 5m over 5 seasons, if you can show the 1.2m reported from Anasta that would be interesting to read?
 
Google:
'No, Braith Anasta did not state that Keaon Koloamatangi signed for $1.2 million per season.
On NRL 360 and across major…"

" 
We don’t know, unfortunately, but Dylan is on record making a few claims and it obviously wasn't the 1.3m constantly pushed here, and less than we’ve then spent on Pezet anyway.
The Eels identified DB as a 10 year player ourselves remember (which…"

"Anasta was the only one who reported it the most accurately $1.2m pa. You can believe the $1m pa media reports, but you'd by out by a $1m overall plus TPAs.
Cap, would you pay $6m for him for 5 years ON the cap?
Souths passed. So did we. A stuff up…"

"Where's the $1.2m figure come from HOE?
ABC, Fox, SMH, Nine, Sporting News all report $5m over 5 years.
I know it's all hearsay anyway, but all the reporting I saw indicated the sticking point was the extra year only. I didn't see anyone reporting…"
