We are in a bidding war with Moga and winning at this stage, we are waiting on news from Mogas camp on what he will do after agreeing to our original offer then pulling out when Cowboys threw the dosh. Anyones guess...

On the record for mine he is not worth big money - every chance he becomes a highly paid spectator.

Has it changed in the last 2 days, I was told it was done and dusted to the cowboys two days ago ? Are you familiar with the winger the sharkies are trying to sign ?

Carney fifita gallen

Yep really this year we have got nothing out of them. I wouldn't swap them for the chance they all stay on the park for a full year and dominate - but how many players like that can one squad carry.

I would rather we give a youngster a chance - Paul Simona (won't lie have not watched him much this year) is similar in size to Moga - Addo-Carr is almost ET fast - surely we can get one of them ready for first grade. Half the price leaves room in the cap for the superstar who can't handle his piss and gets sacked.

eto nabuli?
I wish it was,he will go to another level when he gets the chance,Radradra was nobody until he got a shot in the top grade,now look at him. Nabuli has just as much going for him.

Anyone know how Omar Slaimankhel is going in Japanese Rugby? Wasn't he the next big thing a couple of years back?

Hamsy have you seen Addo-Carr tackle he is a bigger turnstile than Ashyford

Not many 20's can defend its all shirt grabbing but I think Addo-Carr has potential obviously if he doesn't he doesn't but my point is we have 4 or 5 backs we could be looking at to develop as opposed to spending a large amount on a player that is talented (very) but a little fragile.

But really its just another point of view.

And Snowman ****ing lol

In the desperate position we're in, we have to take that sort of risk with someone of his ability, I feel the same way about Duffie.
It's why I am glad I am not in the position to make these decision - say we throw the cheque book at Moga and he signs - for the sake of it for $500k - as the bloke who signs him you want to hope he fires and stays on the park otherwise you get **** from us fans and the media - thankless job.

Of course it pays alright I suppose lol.

I want Moga more than duffie. Would gladly take both however. throw in josh mcguire and that is some nice recruiting imo. Including we have already signed Ennis.
