Teddy

[Guest]

True, but the ocean front mansion would be closer to 1 mll

Yes so in other words the Cowboys give him $900k via a discounted house by the sea and not reported on the salary cap.

Aren't we signing Hayne and SBW too?

I heard that we replaced POS with Mike Nolan due to his expert wisdom about 'doing a cashie'.

Munster may do OK, he is more of the Slater, Cronk , Smith mould than the other robots that usually leave the Storm.

Wouldn't some have said the same about Widdop?

I certainly did. Not sure if he's reflective of leaving the storm or of where the dragons are. Would have been interesting if he had of signed with us.

Munster is a brilliant fullback. So hard to tackle and great acceleration to punch through a hole.

He's basically a 3/4 version of Tedesco, which tells you how good Teddy is. Personally I rate him a top 5 player in the game and he'd be an amazing signing.

Mitchell will fit in fine at centre just like GI. I'm not yet convinced he has the motor to play fullback so if we can get Teddy then do it.

Exactly. I'm sure most clubs do it to some degree. But I like the quote from a few of you guys, "the broncos don't have a salary cap". Brisbane though push this stuff to the limit. What was it? Did mead take a 200,000 a year pay cut to join the broncos........lmfao. What about Benji, I believe he's playing for petrol money.......

Or in the case of Lachlan Coote....you re-sign with us and we will buy your in-laws a house up here. He was all set to move to be closer to the family next minute the family all moves to Townsville!

In hindsight I'm glad he didn't come (compared with Latrell as FB and Keary in the halves I find him positively dull). I know the Cows were 2015 premiers with him, but I reckon we offered him more than he's worth (and still didn't get them).

I'd love to see the NRL do a proper investigation into that property developer scheme up in Townsville that they seemed to forget about a few years back. $5M penthouse house for $100,000 is just good, free financial advice from a developer who doesn't sponsor the club... he just sells players properties for well below market value.

IMO the NRL need to review this kind of conduct, particularly in single-club cities.

LOL you read the Tele yesterday and it had some slither of an 'article' on the back page saying the Tigers had more than $6M worth of players and was gonna have to fight to keep Teddy.

This is hardly a rumour. Can't see Teddy leaving the Tigers and if he does... can't see us signing him.

Not one of us really knows anything re Teddy atm but anything can happen. In 1995 the Rugby League world was turned on it's head and we got Fittler from 1996 as a result.

Dont forget the real deal Marty Kennedy.

We'd go close to winning the comp next season if we signed Teddy.

I was certain we'd be getting teddy and Moses next year together until we signed keary for two seasons. Now I don't know what's going to happen. There was talk of us swapping Pearce for Moses but neither he nor keary would make a good halfback.
