Critter is better than Joey Manu!

I hope they’re negotiating a player swap for a Critta for 2023. They lost a barnstorming 2nd rower. They whinge about losing their juniors. We can give them Waddell.

Keh..?

Lol and I thought I was the only person who thought this [emoji23]

There is another on here that does the same thing and says things that can never be proven right or wrong.

 

[B-Train]

We're not getting a player swap for 2023.. Do you guys not remember the whole Burton situation and how that player swap worked out? They're competing for another premiership, it makes zero sense for them to lose a rep outside back for this season.

Pluggers!

Sorry boys, can't help but have a BIG LOL
You can be assured I will never reveal my source nor any information that I am trusted with...
It's your choice to read or not read my comments.
Just keep in mind "Where there is smoke there is fire ", I could say more but I won't

I remember you claiming to know Adam Elliots salary, when I’d seen the contract with my own 2 eyes and it wasn’t the figure you were spruking.
Either you or your source talks shit.
Only one that has got it right most the time is Steve and Dexter

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Keh..?

He's always been my 3rd favourite panther behind Kikau and Burton.

Didn’t that fall over because they wanted Napa and we said no. Hahahaha

It could make sense for them if they want extra funds to extend some of their juniors.
The issue would be we wouldn’t have anywhere near the cap space for 2023 I wouldn’t think.

I dont trust this particular source but I have heard chricton has missed multiple successive days of training leading up to and since his decision to leave panthers. Could mean nothing could be something, could be bullshit but just thought I'd share anyway

I agree with you, probably won’t be a player swap or an early release ..

But the Burton situation was completely different …. he was smashing it for Panthers on basically minimum wage … not often you have the Dally M centre of the year in your team on minimum bucks .. no way they were ever going to let that bargain go, no club would …

SC is on over $600k … that free’s up a lot more than minimum dollars .. but I feel they’ve got the players they want to keep sown up, so as long as he’s putting in they’ll keep him for 2023 …

They just extended 4 juniors the other day and will have extra funds just like every other club to do so for 24 and beyond with the cap going up. And like you said, we can't magically find 750k plus for this season. It's near impossible to happen even if they wanted it to and they don't want it to because they want him to help them win another comp this year.

 

[JUNKYARD DOGS]

Herbie Farnworth would be a good pick up.

 

[CrittaMagic69]

Critter will be a Bulldog in 2023

Look at the Kikau situation then as a better example.. They showed no interest to move him on early even though they had a tonne of guys off contract because they needed him to win a comp. They're not over the cap for this season, they'll have enough to upgrade or extend a lot of others for 24 and beyond with Chrichton leaving, so it's all a moot point. Their focus is on winning a third straight comp.

If we are getting this PRATT hopefully it is in 2023, maybe a swap for Flanagan.

I would rather a spine of:

1. Crichton
6. Burton
7. Anyone other than Flanagan
9. Mahoney
and 14. Averillo (he can adequately cover 1 - 7 & 9)

Dragons on the lookout for a Half. Be desperate for one now.

Did you really mean PRATT = Previously Refuted A Thousand Times


Always a Bulldog
