News NRL market watch: Bulldogs, Dragons lead chase for Jarome Luai, Addin Fonua-Blake

[Dognacious]

Tigers offering 1.2 million a year for Luai. Fuck that. For a 6 who may or may not be good at 7. Hasnt played nrl fg at 7. And no way we want another 6. Pass.

I definately prefer Dearden

Why don't we just merge with the Panthers and simplify the job of signing their players, one by one?

So we should sign players based on which team they come from over ability and availability? That’ll do me.

What a dumb arse post how are the bulldogs still holding out hope luai had plenty of time to consider all offers before today’s announcement.

Typical germalist nonsense.There will be articles all next week about a possible backflip

 

[maroondog72]

Did u have a wet dream Joel?

I think Joel is still blowing dust.

Luai has said himself no pen to paper.

It’s pretty similar to what happened with Crichton. Gus and Ciraldo have said they won’t approach Penrith players until they tell Penrith they are leaving.

Crichton said he was leaving Penrith about a week before he signed with us from memory.

Personally I hope he goes to the Tigers. He’s an $850k player at best. But I have feeling that it’s not a done deal at the tigers

I’m worried about Joel now. He has nothing else to post now that there’s no player targets atm.

@04 Dreaming where are you??
Just last night you were still saying Luai was Belmore bound #ClownCrew #NFI

You would be a tough bloke to work for Dinkum. The poor bugger has been flat out for months working the numbers to overthrow the board and has just finished signing off on a massive contract for Luai with the dogs. Bloke needs a bit of a sleep in on a Saturday.

dogs need to go hard for Deardon...much younger and has more up take but I doubt we are gunning for him

Take no prisoners for shit-talkers mate .

Hmm not really. It's definitely overs and I'm sick of Panthers but I'm even more sick of losing. What's the point in us supposedly having all this money when we keep passing up top targets because they cost too much? We've deadset run out of targets for 2025. Who is there left to sign?

FMD make up your mind, “no more panther” “luai is not what we need” Luai signs with Tigpies for ridiculous overs “we need luai to win some games”?

He’ll be ok, Christmas holidays and all..

 

[B-Train]

They said on SEN Richardson wasn't starting until the new year

He's fronted the media a few times already. He's the interim CEO but I'm sure he'll be made permanent soon as he's experienced and he'll run the club more smoothly than the clowns before.

Luai is NRL proven and has proven himself on the international stage, he also has existing combinations with the likes of Crichton and Kikau. Luai improves our side by mile, I don't like that but it's a fact.

How true mate, if it was top players from the Storm when they were winning comps or the Roosters would there have been the same complaints?

Yes because the Storm players were clearly system merchants. Tohu is the only player that left and excelled.

He’s 67 - not sure he wants the gig permanently - and will soon enough see the ongoing politics of the group, but good chance to top up the super for a few months.

Greg Inglis, Israel Falou, Brandon Smith, Nico Hynes, Bromwich, Kafusi, say hi?

Excuses me? You said when the storm were wining comps. Inglis, sure. Izzy, left the game. The rest are irrelevant.
