Moley hearing the Jack Cogger situation at @NRLKnights is about to EXPLODE!!! https://t.co/GsLYuB6Jta


Lets see..
Hope he’s in blue and white for this year.

Reckon knights will let him.

I get there’s no reason and nothing in it for them but it’s literally holding a kid back and they have lamb and hodko at this stage too.

They made there bed with Pearce and Watson and lamb still a chance to convince.

Dunno, they have every right to keep him and Browns job is probably on the line this season so he will want to take every advantage he can get. Bet the Knights are holding out for a player trade at this stage though will likely cave in at grant a release at some point.

It doesn't really make sense to keep Cogger from a first team perspective because he won't see first grade now. In most situations he would have already been released but because the Knights are so far under the cap they have no incentive to. This feels like when we had Sezer or when the Broncos released Taylor the Titans. In both situations you have a young half under contract who wants to leave for a shot at first grade.

Brown is free to keep Cogger if he wants but who will play NSW Cup? They have Hodko, Johns, Cogger and Lamb is you assume that Pearce and Watson start the season as the first choice halves pairing.

Kinda like how the cows wouldn't let them get that fullback kid early last year
Sorry can't think of his name right now

A player who couldn’t make a wooden spoon side like Newcastle in 2017 is going to make a difference at the Bulldogs?
A baffling signing to say the least.

Sometimes clubs have to take a chance on kids. We can’t all poach superstar after superstar like your roosters. Could be worse! Could do that and still choke year after year!

Most coaches are ex players, so for them to hold a player back like this is pretty fucking hypocritical as far as im concerned. If they were the player and not the coach then im sure they would want to be granted the release.
