Try assists mean alot actually especially for sides that can't score points like us. But thats why I added that storm have played all top 8 sides bar Cronulla and listed examples where other players had inflated totals due to shit opposition. Again your allowed to not like him and not think he's what our team needs. But arguing saying he's average/shit when he's clearly not is silly.
It's easy to get try assists when you play for Melbourne. He wouldn't have half of those if he played for the Bulldogs.
Forans a 6 and a broken one at that. I see Hughes as a fullback. Of course he wouldn't turn our side around immediately and be a big threat as he is at the storm as they are a well drilled unit and we are pure shit... But you have to start somewhere, weve tried lining up the elite talent and there all near locked up.
Offer him 800k and we have a good chance imo. Start lower, negotiate, etc.
Both he and Papenhauzen are absolute guns.
Realistically very low.
Big money (he'd be sacrificing 300-400k a year) and a guarantee to play in his preferred role which he has stated he wants to play (and was told was his position when C. Smith retires, also no guarantee when C. Smith will retire). I'm not sure if that's realistically very low.
You should send your CV to Steve Price. Start high, aim low and you’ll get it
Just common sense and logic. You should try using some.
Harry Grant said hes going back to Melbourne no matter what tho. He said Melbourne "have his word" and he wants to repay them for giving him an NRL opportunity. Brandon Smith is good but Harry Grant clearly edges him as the starting 9. With the way the storm are playing theres no way Cam Smith retires imo, hes been asked in interviews whether hes playing on and he response is usually "if we keep winning, I'll play". Brandon Smith is the odd man out no matter how this plays out.
Fingers crossed, for the right money Brandon is a great prospect and certainly better than anything we have.
