News Transfer bombshell: NRL’s highest-paid prop requests release

[Kiwipup]

Ask Gus on Twitter and is AFB following the Dogs on INSTA?

 

[maroondog72]

If Gus can move on Thompson and TPJ and then land AFB some of the doom boosters on here are going to fucking neck themselves
pay the man Gus we need him like 04 fish fucker needs his Goat.

 

[Kelpie03]

Ho

Only loser teams pay 1 million for a prop.

Are the Bronks a loser team and how much are they paying for Hass.

 

[D.O.W.]

Our coach is a complete turnip, mate, One quality prop isn't going to fix our problems.

That’s why I used the word “potentially”

 

[D.O.W.]

This is what I got told earlier today guys and gals

“Gus has been in discussions with Cows to take Taumalolo off their hands “

This is what I got told 5 mins ago

“The Taumalolo plan on hold, Gus is making direct enquires on AFB..If the Warriors let him go which looks likely Dogs going all in”

“The problem is Dragons are making him a priority now and I believe his parents live closer to Dragons HQ, it’s early days but dominoes will fall once the Warriors make their decision “

Thx KD7, Dragons territory neighbouring dog’s territory so location shouldn’t be too much of an issue. Plan B isn’t bad either, Taumalolo would still be a great pick up imo.

Maybe Nash can use some of his oil.

Only oil he has is an always diminishing supply of wank lube

Just looked him up. He turns 28 on Monday and is from Meadowbank. 3 years for $4M and don’t let O’meley any where near him at training.

Omeley would be left choking on his turkey neck when afb fakes him out with the goosey

 

[Daustin]

we are well overdue getting a gun player on compassionate grounds, we've let a few go in the same circumstances over the years

 

[BulldogsMate]

We need something like this. Clubs been at the bottom, scraping the barrel for years and we’ve always let players walk and got nothing in return.
Let’s hope the footy gods can finally give us a positive back.

 

[D.O.W.]

Taumalolo with freight paid by cowboys is better than 1.2 plus for AFB

I don’t know why some are shirking at the thought of Taumalolo joining… it would be an epic acquisition and a cheaper one. AFB would be preferable but I’d still take JT in a heartbeat, he’s a wrecking ball.

Some in the Kennel would complain if we signed Cleary bro

 

[B-Train]

This thread will be 100 pages within a few days. I hope he signs with us not just because he'd be a great signing but so we can avoid a full scale Chernobyl like Kennel nuclear meltdown if he signs with another club..

Just to put a little perspective on this situation..
I just found out today that my dad has bladder cancer and it has thrown my world into a spin..
Even the brand new car I bought yesterday means nothing right now..
So if his parents are in a serious health situation and he needs an immediate release..the last thing he would be thinking about is his next potential club..
Don’t expect this to be decided and resolved in a few days..
He would be solely focused on his family right now..
Respect the reason for a release guys and understand his priorities right now..

Mate so sorry about your dad, stay strong for him but also for yourself...
In the end this is just a game , family is for ever....
Prays to you and your dad.

I'd take Lolo but he's nowhere near the player he was 3+ years ago. You could probably risk paying him 600-700k with Cowboy chipping in the rest (I don't think he's even worth that but probably worth the risk for struggling club like us).

 

[Papa Joe]

He is exactly what we need

I've been banging on about it for the last few years

FORWARDS WIN GAMES AND THE BACKS DECIDE BY HOW MUCH!!!

This theory will never change in Rugby League..... ever.

have you seen Titan forward pack ?

 

[King Gus]

Taumalolo with freight paid by cowboys is better than 1.2 plus for AFB

To me it’s a win win if we get any of the two

 

[Papa Joe]

have you seen Titan forward pack ?

From memory they play Tinos brother and Payne Haas brother in the 17.... IMO they are not first grade standard at this stage.

O'MELEY, MASON, PRICE, RYAN, MAITUA, ASOTASI, SBW, GRIMALDI..... THEY DECIDED WHO WON!!!.

 

[King Gus]

If Gus only found out about this today, I strongly suspect that AFB isn't headed to the 'dogs.

Surely some groundwork was already in place with another club before AFB asked the Bros for a release.

Remember no club can talk to a player before November 1 so it’s not late

 

[King Gus]

Only loser teams pay 1 million for a prop.

So broncos, cowboys, titans are losers
