Sualli?

Imagine having the best half and fullback in the game and then having the best teenage half & fullback in the game waiting in the wings.

This is some serious succession planing if true. I’ll wait till its confirmed before I get excited though, this guy still doesn’t have a manager apparently so I could see this deal dragging out a bit and Souths will do their best to sabotage it for us.

By the sounds of it the first year of his deal will be more like 200-250k with a significant rise in year 2 so maybe not as much salary cap movement required for 2021 but someone will definitely have to make room for 2022 if this rumour does eventuate.

I think the Morris twins along with Friend might not be there in 2022, so there’s your cap space.

Tupou turns 30 next year and DESERVES a huge payrise nearing the end which we could never offer him, if Fergo can get 500k Toups is easily worth $500-$550

2022 backline?

No way can we let Toops leave, he’s a huge part of our team and of the hardest to replace.

He’ll stay for less $$ he always has, and age isn’t a huge deal as it once was with sports science and what not. Players primes these days tend to be 30+ a lot of the time.

agreed we can’t lose Toups those carries from our own end are so huge for us.. only seems to be getting better by age as well.

That sound similar to teddy’s contract demands.. are you sure you haven’t misread anything.. I tried going on there once but I couldn’t stand the s*** they come up with.. typical vermin trash.

Talk of Angus being possibly shopped around for us to be able to fit JS in gee I hope we don’t lose Angus he was a beast for us this season and only so young too

Who's doing the talking?

I hope we don't fall into the trap of paying for players salaries at other clubs it's a road to ruin.
The storm have the right idea they don't release players early unless they get something in return and don't subsidise by part paying contracts when one of their players is released early.

Fark me surely not. We need to keep Angus at all costs, fark Suallii if it means losing Crichton....

No, this person was also saying that Teddy is pissed off because of this offer. It's a fantasy, of course.

One paper today said we are paying part of Flanno's first year at the Dogs. We must have been desperate to get rid of him.

A couple of whispers going around and also weidler brought it up this morning on the radio. We have Sitili who’s due for a extension and Angus who’s on big coin but will have to sacrifice $$ in order to stay but if a club comes knocking with a better offer we will have our hands tied

[Snapn1]

Any1 but Angus surely he wants another ring! Keary took a pay cut maybe he can fingers crossed

[Snapn1]

Honestly any1 but him
