News Superstar Kalyn Ponga chasing four-year $6 million deal at Knights

[Moedogg]

Hasn't even delivered yet and already asking for an upgrade. Much rather spend that money on a combo of Munster and Tedesco or Tom Turbo and Munster.

 

[Dognacious]

Ridiculous money. Hes tripping. I rate Tedesco and T Turbo higher and they dont earn that.

 

[Dannyboi88]

They will settle for 1.2 he ain’t done nothing Teddy’s the only fb worth near that figure ponga ain’t justified that price

 

[flamebouyant]

Possibly... Still think at that coin your buying the absolute best and not someone that might be the best.

There is no doubt in my mind whatsoever. When Teddy is arguably the best player in the game right now, but when he was the same age he was nowhere near as good as Ponga is now.

Time will tell I guess.

Barba was better than Ponga at his age

 

[coach]

Barba was better than Ponga at his age

No he wasn’t ponga is 21.. barba couldn’t get a regular first grade spot at 21 let alone picked for origin etc

Barba was 21 in 2010....
Ponga 21 now ......

Ponga playing origin means shit Look at Pearce,
Any way I was talking about 2012 barba would shit all over Ponga

 

[TABOO]

Everyone has pumped up his tyres so much they are about to POP!

 

[magdog]

Yeah the paid big dollars for Klem too, so there cap is shot. They went hard this year to make playoffs but are slowly fading away.

Nothing slow about their fading...it’s been spectacular!

 

[Freakzilla]

He couldn't take us to the finals 2 years in a row and then he said he wants $1.5 million a year

 

[bulldogfan1]

I know it is a team sport, but if Ponga is really worth $1.5 mill a year, his team would be firmly entrenched in the top 8 pressuring a top 4 position.

 

[Squash the Berries!]

The Roosters could squeeze him in

 

[Bulldog_4_Life]

Great player, worth a million based on potential. He isn't close to Teddy or RTS, he also isn't a "generational talent" as people call him, that would put him in the bracket with the JT's and Slater's and he isn't good enough to lace their boots.

 

[doggieaaron]

Could be there way of saying pay it now or in November we look around,nrl players are so dumb/greedy not like the nfl where players take unders to win comps and keep a good team together

They can't currently sign until the end 2021 and Newcastle has club option for 2022.

Or signs with someone else, seeks a release for personal reasons, plays like shit or turns up late to training and gets his way. Seems like something he’d do

True he had a huge bitch about the Cowboys not releasing him early when he sign.

 

[Bulldogs09]

Pretty sure it’s reported that his option not knights for 2022

 

[Vlasnik]

Lol. He isn't better than Teddy or RTS, probably isn't a better attacking fullback than Tom...he simply doesn't rate high enough to get this sort of coin from any club, anyone that pays this is stupid.

Next thing knowing us Ponga signs on with the Dogs for $1.8 mil a season
