  • Because there aren't enough off contract players to meet the demand. This is creating a bidding war. So the clubs might be in a hurry to sign players but the players certainly won't be in a hurry to sign when there's so much money available. It's a seller's market.

    • If that's the state of the market we should be consolidating our position, not going to market.

      • Agreed Adam, and I suspect that is our intent.

  • Managers and players might be holding off to see what happens with R360 they have a contract for 2026 anyway 

  • Yeah it is hard, as us fans including myself want signings. Though, at the same time you do not just sign for the sake of it either.

  • Because there's a huge Christmas announcement happening.  That's the scoop .  

    • Santa to sign 4 year deal as eels prop.

      • 1 year deal then he returns to the North Pole reindeers on a 3 year deal, just got a years experience here to fine tune his skills on loan.

"Hawkins was good for our club, despite staying only for a year, no? Pezet is at worst, a decent short-term depth replacement. You need depth. Panthers halves depth options are also a perennial revolving door.  We don't say they're stupid for…"

Theres very little upside in this deal for Parra as we either rinse wash repeat in the…"

"If Pezet plays 20+ games for us he will definitely provide $600k worth of value. It's 2025. Every club in the NRL will have one or both starting halves on $600k+."

"This is where I'm hoping the clubs at in this area if we are like Pou is mentioned around 600 it's not good value for us that's another decent player in your top 30 that's development ready."

"Good luck with that if potential is worth a mill these days go the Broncos but as for us a 20 game not much isn't worth 600.
Potential unrealised even if he has a good year here if teams are valuing that there the teams that are fucked.The good…"

"He's not getting paid for what he's done, he'll be geting paid for what he's expected to do during the course of the contract. If he underperforms those expectations then he'll be on overs, but I expect Pezet to become one of the top halves in the…"

The problem here is people take stabs in the dark about what players are actually paid or offers clubs make and it…"

"What's he done in the game has he played for his country SoO what.We've just realeased an international half who was on 850-900 yet Pezet is reputable after 20 games I mean seriously.
I hope your right I hope Brisbane are stupid enough to pay this…"
