Penriths have offered Edwards 850k a year for 3 years. Sounds about right to me with that offer. Would have probably got offered maybe 900-950k at a club like Wests or St Merge I think but you’d take that payout rather than playing for a **** club.

I saw it on a Bulldogs fan page but can't find it on the Bulldogs official Farcebook, not that I care a great deal.

If it weren't for Shane being at the Dragons now I just would not believe that although it's alleged Sullivan requested a release as far back as last season and Dragons said no.

Dragons have massive wraps on Sullivan and backed him with a long contract. No one has wraps on Kyle anymore and while Jayden is rough around the edges as a half he is still developing. Kyle is already coming into his mid 20's and has not nailed down a position at any club in his career.

If I'm a Dragons fan I am not happy... but I'm not a Dragons fan so suck ****, **** em.

Dogs fans would be happy I would imagine.
I have no time for Pissflap jnr at all but will say that he's been going OK as a hooker in the 'Dogs reggies. As good as Liddle goes for the Dragons first team.

If he does end up there I can see him as No.9 being coached by Pissflap snr who was also a hooker. It can work. Liddle is dross

So let’s play out the rumours assuming they are true. I can’t see how they can be true.

1. Flannagan
2. Sexton
3. Some Brisbane $500000 junior half - can’t think of his name.
4. Sullivan
5. I could be wrong here but wasn’t there another half from Penrith - a star who Penrith were super pissed to lose.

Too much? Guollds tilting on halves

For me - it’s Sexton all day and no one’s that close really.
They'll have as many as the Sharks soon

Agree on the 9 part. It looks like his best position at this stage of his career.

Egan re signs with the warriors till end of 2025. Been so good for them the past 18 months, turned into a bloody good player.

Just a liability with his head knocka unfortunately
True that, regarding head knocks

I mentioned the other day the rise of JMK and fall of Reed as they went into better/worse teams. Well the stats article paints Warriors forward pack pretty favourably.
Think Egan is in same boat - most hookers are to be fair. Pretty hard to stand out positively at hooker in a weak team

Reed was never that good imo. Solid player but never anything special.

Lodge to Manly apparently.

Perfect match IMO.
Paseka and Sipley are a good starting duo, Jurbo is solid. Aioli is okay but I’m sure he used to be better. Could use another prop.
Wonder if he makes a full season?

Yeah, that’s odd.
so he shouldn‘t be allowed to play NRL unless they upgrade him to top 30 surely!
Moses has wrangles his client Siebold into signing his client Lodge

Don’t think he’ll be eligible to be play (unless under major exemption) but he’s away from roosters who cast him out to reserve grade (where he’s still playing…) and Moses probably gets another signing bonus

Question is will Lodge and Aioli become the ultimate piece of **** duo or punch on?
