Tevita Pangai Jr 2020

[Howard Moon]

If he played the Cowboys every week he would be worth LoLo money

 

[Motorhead]

Dragons shut him right down last night. Kid is a flat track bully.

Totally agree. His defensive "highlight reel" versus the Cowboys was primarily the tackle where JT's knee gave way, a few late hits on McGuire and a 3rd man in smash on a winger who was held in the in-goal. Plenty of diving at knees of held players as well.
Bully-boy who got owned by Tariq Sims in the finals last year and by the Dragons pack on Thursday night.
Massively overhyped at this point in his career. Sam Burgess will tear him a new arsehole when Souths play Brisbane.

 

[Novdoggie]

We'll have a million to throw at him when Foran goes but should we go for him or a good half? Will we have money for both from 2020 surely we do right?

 

[Boxer]

Roosters will announce the signing of Pangai jr in the next couple of days.

Roosters will announce the signing of Pangai jr in the next couple of days.

And will somehow extend Cronks contract another year to go for 3 in a row

CHOOKS MAKING PLAY FOR PANGAI
THE mail is getting stronger that Broncos forward Tevita Pangai Jr is close to signing a deal at Sydney Roosters from 2020.
The Roosters will no doubt deny the story but we’re hearing the young enforcer could become one of the highest paid forwards in the game behind only Sam Burgess at Souths and Jason Taumalolo at the Cowboys.
The Roosters have the funds available from the retirement of champion halfback Cooper Cronk at the end of the season which will shut down the usual suggestions of creative accountancy with their salary cap.
There is no longer the need to chase a big-name playmaker because Luke Keary has proven he is a more than capable long-term replacement for Cronk. The Broncos want an answer from Pangai and his manager before May.

.....

Classic Roosters...

 

[Kempsey Dog]

ideally we want broncos to throw a lot of money to keep him... hoping that they may have no luck in stopping us poaching some of their players. Staggs and Flegler would be nice.

This is what I said yesterday ^^^

Oh Please.

Have you seen our sombrero.

People should burn NRL headquarters if this happens.

Preferably with Greenberg and Beattie inside and the doors barricaded.

And their salary cap "auditors"

 

[sgodllubsti]

the nrl need to cap 3rd parties at a conservative level, they talk about having a level and fair competition, then the nrl must address the 3rd party issue

 

[Como Dog]

What club with you rather sign with?

A club with a superstar roster, a premiership force and the current premiers, good coach, upmarket area with nice cafes etc

Or

A club with a bunch of nobodies sailing dead last with a nobody coach who doesn’t look like winning a premiership anytime soon and in an area with lebs walking around in trackpants eating kebabs

You're not limited to living in the area you play and train in when playing for a Sydney club.

"The Roosters have the funds available from..."

We hear this passage every fucking year.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Could be something in it give we just snagged Manu (https://www.thekennel.net.au/forum/index.php?threads/dogs-get-their-man-u.112257/unread) and Cronk is retiring.

 

[Baby Blues]

I'd rather we target flegler.. the Broncos have a few off contract but I think ofehengau and tpj will ask for too much, where as you could pick the kid up for reasonable money in preparation for when the good players come off contract the following year.. if I was recruiting I'd be aiming to lure players across from clubs who are spending excessive money trying to hang onto someone.. but then next year we need to go hard for real stars.

From what I hear we are seriously looking at Ofahengaue for next year. No way Broncos can keep all those young forwards. The fact they re-signed Carrigan early might work in our favour

 

[B-Train]

Ofahengue is a great young forward and should make Origin this year. He'd be a great signing for any club and would probably cost half of what TPJ would be asking.

 

[Como Dog]

I mentioned on here six months ago we should have been chasing him then but I spoke to his father Greg yesterday and the broncs won’t let him go now. I was lucky enough coach him and Jake Clifford in our u13 Tully tigers side and Fleg was not only an exceptional footballer he is also a very genuine,humble young man. I’m just Glad he’s Queenslander!!lol

Sounds like The Kennel has just done our recruitment team a huge favour.

That will be a clash worth watching.
