Angus Crichton would be a handy pick up for Eastwood considering he is being offered around the same money by the Rooster and Souths that Eastwood is on.
"Handy pick up" lol. He would be a lot more than that. He was arguably the best edge forward in the game this season. I'm sure if he leaves he will be off to the Roosters anyway.Angus Crichton would be a handy pick up for Eastwood considering he is being offered around the same money by the Rooster and Souths that Eastwood is on.
He is but he will have a stress test next week and then again in January.. if he doesnt pass those tests then most likely he will have to retire.https://www.foxsports.com.au/video/league/nrl/eastwood-back-after-surgery!656499
Looks like he’s back training with the boys.
I would much rather save the money for future upgrades and the spine. We have a few up and coming forwards including Martin and RFM who should become classy backrowers.Angus Crichton would be a handy pick up for Eastwood considering he is being offered around the same money by the Rooster and Souths that Eastwood is on.
Yes but something like this would be pretty clear cut unlike knee injuries etcPS... dont insurance have to clear him for any room in the cap to be made??

True... interesting times aheadYes but something like this would be pretty clear cut unlike knee injuries etc
You seem confident. No reason not to beleive you.He will be retired.
Stress tests are not too hard for someone like Beast but its the long term mental effect this has on your mind health.
I had to give competitive sport away for a heart related issue and i assure you once its in your head that your heart is ‘damaged or not 100%’, everything in your head and world changes.
My thoughts are the Beast will pack it in knowing that he still gets paid and doesnt have to play.
Invest it in Bitcoin...lolYou seem confident. No reason not to beleive you.
Guess next question is, what do we all with all that extra cap room???

Probably best to keep the money free for a midseason signing, a decent player or two might be on the move..Invest it in Bitcoin...lol
Yeah im confident that he will give it away because this is a legitimate reason to do so and heart issues are something that never goes away so he does have to rethink everything.
Insurance is also an issue, now he has been diagnosed with a heart matter there will be contract repercussions so i think he will go.
I dont have a clue who is out there, available and worthwhile but my guess is we would look to top a few guys up and see who is available for 2019
Not easy at all knowing your heart has the potential to beat at 260bpm during a high intensive work out.... I can imagine you wouldn't risk anything adrenalin ever again.He will be retired.

I agree. I would also like to see how everyone performs under pay before passing judgement. Then we can better determine exactly what we need.Probably best to keep the money free for a midseason signing, a decent player or two might be on the move..
I do agree however we (everyone except Hasler) have known that a halfback is needed and has been for years. I am really keen to see Mbye at Fullback and would be surprised after he is given a good go if he was moved again. The money must be used/put aside for securing a suitable halfback for the future whether it's an up-coming bloke or an established one for the 2019 season. We need a halfback!I agree.

We have our halfback, he just needs to stay fit and pray his leg doesn't fall off when he kicks a ball lol.I do agree however we (everyone except Hasler) have known that a halfback is needed and has been for years.
