Finally someone with some sence.
The kennel is giving it to the half who is on 250 thou who replaced foz in the kiwi side 1 million by our club.
But yeah lets attack the warriors about how stupid they are lol. Omg. This kid and that so called useless ben hunt nearly won the broncs a grand final against arguably the best number 7 to ever lace a boot. But lets knock kodi on 250 and half the idiots on here wanted ash taylor here for over a million. Crazy talk. 250 k for the richest clubs halfback, i would of walked too.

 

[Straight18]

Whats everyone gonna say when he plays ok at the warriors with a consistent half next to him. How does milford keep walking around untouched and getting paid the big bucks.

Like how many halves running around on 3 to 4 times as much money that dont even have a kicking game at all. Or are doing a worse job than nikorima. Plenty. Bennet had no problems getting results with him.

 

[Flanagun]

If thats the case, definitely the right call by Seibs.
May not be immediate, but Dearden will be a better long term prospect.
Milf needs a structured half.

Milf needs a sports psychologist. Makes Ben Roberts look consistent.

 

[Mr Invisible]

Also shows his lack of character for bitching and refusing to play this week.

He's injured. Tweaked his hamstring the other week and it hasn't been right. Broncos have rested him.

At least that's the word coming out of Broncos HQ.

 

[Mr Invisible]

That and this......

Nikorima failed a second drug test and was sacked by the Sydney Roosters...

Them baggies of cocaine always happen to pop up when salary cap limits get close.

It was reported that he refused to play. He played this past week with the same "injury".

 

[maroondog72]

Milford is a myth,nikorima has been hung out to dry.Dont blame him for pissing off

 

[TABOO]

Milf needs a 700 thousand dollar pay cut and a good kick up the arse. Thats about it. People keep making up excuses for him. I believe nickorima and hunt play very much the same, they missed out on being premiers by 1 point with hunt. But no its the 200 thou dollar halfbacks fault pfffft.

Never said Milf was living up to his paycheck either, I simply said that Nikorima is not a NRL half back - Hes a utility. pffffffffffffft.

 

[Bulldogs09]

Let’s be serious. Broncos are filthy it’s reported he’s on 250k when he leaves! That’s only when he re-signs. The reality is him going clearly opens up 1.8mil in cap space!

 

[K E]

It's true, say what you want about Nicaragua but the fat Ben Barba has always, always been over rated. And if the little fat rat is on $1,000,000 a season then every other half should be on at least $6,000,000 a season. He'll have one good game in about every ten and then call it a day.

Between the very poor man's Ben Barba and Catrius who retired three seasons ago but forgot to tell anyone, it's no wonder Brisbane suck as much as we do.

Still think he was ‘injured’?

 

[JackDog]

No doubt Nikorima has ability, and appears to be able to playing as a running 5/8 quite well when we decides to play.

Playing well consistently seems to be his main downfall, but he's not Robinson Crusoe there at the Donks (or a number of other clubs for that matter). I wonder if being under the Donks system since 12 has contributed to that attitude problem.

If he can consistently maintain good performances, than it will be money well spent by the Warriors...unfortunately he has gone to completely the wrong club to learn consistency.

 

[Raysie]

I think it's a good deal for the Warriors. Nikorima wasn't the issue at the Broncos, he can now play as a 6 and let Green do the leading.

I don't know why so many clubs try to make 2 ball running halves work...it rarely does.

Like wearing two left shoes.

I just mentioned that because of what was reported.

 

[Blueandwhiteblood1968]

Now Nikorima can embrace being mediocre and never winning a comp, welcome to the Warrior's where we turn good players to shit.

 

[Kaz]

A few of us mentioned that he refused to play because he was pissed off that he wouldn't be in the 13.

Think I was the first to post about it. (posted as a 'rumour') as I had no link. (I was following the forum rules)
