If Roosters can do it why can't we? His negatives far outweigh whatever little positives he brings to the club.. he's shit both on and off the field. His position should be untenable and he should not have a future at this club. Baz needs to get rid of this scumbag!!
Nasheed here,
You firstly need to get in the right frame of mind for this question.
‘Can we shop him because roosters do it’ is not correct logic. You’re approaching this from the wrong angle.
The correct angle is you shop a player who is valuable, but not working out for your team. It’s not it even performance related. It could be they are taking up too much cap (think DCE drama this year) or you need to make way for a talented junior (can smith) or a player is good, but the smart business decision is to offload and pay freight (Matt lodge). Whether roosters, dogs, Souths, Beirut FC do it and we don’t is completely irrelevant and childish.
This is why we didn’t ‘shop Montoya’ last year. No one would’ve taken him you’d think, and it would destroy his morale. Although Montoya did score a contract which was amazingly lucky, but that’s besides the point. Maybe a better example is Napa or Lichaa.
Now, to the point, and in the correct frame of mind, can we shop Elliott?
Yes.
Elliott is a good player. He was our best last year along with Foran and Holland and he started this year strong before going full retard.
He had demand for his signature from saints and warriors, and I truly feel that if we put up 100k like roosters did with flanno then yes, some teams would bite.
Tigers, saints, Brisbane, warriors, manly, England and even the roosters I think will make an enquiry.
he isnt working under Barrett, but he is a good player and maybe that’s on Barrett himself. Another chat.
but yes, that’s the long version of saying we could.
