Im kinda "meh" about losing lafai and gaining Hopoate. Both players are very similar to me. Both are young and showed promise in the past but did nothing in 2015. And for both id be hoping in 2016 that they can find old form.

Hoppa will be on more
lafai was on 200-250 max
hoppa isn't going to go from 850 a year to 250

No way indiandog brother
lafai went from a second tier 30K a year contract when we signed him to something in the vicinity of 250
the NRL will not register an origin players contract for less than 300 or even 350
it is not salary cap related nor will parra pay any of his deal

We will agree to disagree then brother
I have it on good authority from within that he was pushed and even back when Vidot was pursued he was getting taped on shoulder

Released: Lafai

Still on the payroll: Perrett and Williams.

Great retention -_- sick and tired of having mediocre players in FG.

Well then hit us up a pm or spill what u know out in the open. There is no way u can be 100% about it because I trust my guys info also. I'm not saying u can't be right but when there is two side of a story the truth or accuracy of it all is somewhere in the middle.

lafai didn't want to leave 100%

He is a humble no nonsense type of guy that didn't need this late in the year. If he wanted to leave he would of left shortly after season end. Now that Hopoate is next to no chance of staying at parrascum, lafai was pushed. Just like frank never wanted to leave and was pushed.

I am sure he didn't want to leave but salary cap stepped in and we can't afford the slightest of issues based on our past.

So u are in agreement with what I said? Why state that I was incorrect initially.

1. Lafai was pushed
2. Lafai never wanted to leave the dogs
3. Lafai was trying to be pushed out as early as before June 30 however injury stopped this
4. Hoppa flop will be on more than lafai and lafai was pushed to compensate hoppa signing

now plz tell me again I am incorrect .
