He isn't leaving Brisbane and even if he did you would be looking at at least $1m a season. Would $1m for him be better than buying two players for say 650k and 350k?

If the one on 650k is Jackson and the other on 350k is someone like Elliott then absolutely, Fifita is worth the money.

But I agree, I can't see him leaving Brisbane either and he'll accept 250k a year "less" than what other clubs are offering to stay in Brisbane while having the difference topped up in cars and apartments and other shifty shit given to his mum and family.

It depends. Are there 650k players on the market for 2021 that'll complement our pack?

This article seems like they're just throwing shit randomly and hoping that it sticks. I have zero belief that they'd stay quiet if they had a scrap of information. I'd trust a dog to guard a plate full of bacon while I was out of the room more than I'd trust anyone in the media to sit on information. By saying a Sydney club, they're hedging their bets. It's quite probable that one of the remaining 10 Sydney clubs will make an offer. At present 2/3 of the Queensland clubs have reputedly made an offer as well as 1 Sydney club. So if another Sydney club throws their hat in the ring, they can claim they had a scoop.

I’m pretty sure it’s us. I agree hard to see him leaving Brisbane though.

Well we just bought Thompson for a rumoured 700k+ per season, would we really be in the market for another biggish signing in the forwards or would we be looking at another Britt/Stimson like signing? Club will probably just give Elliott 450k per season or something and call it a day lol.

just the usual media beat up with the help of his manager to inflate his price, nothing to see here nothing to be read into it, manager and media working together

He is worth every cent.....offer him 1.2million over 4 years....because that's what it would take to get him...and even then I really don't think he will want to play under a rookie coach....but David Fafita would make such a big difference to our team....woukd give us more variation and woukd bring lots of mongrel

Probably attract nobody because we just spent a minimum $1.7m on two forwards and can't afford anyone else of high value.
