Just cast a wide net, and see if we can land him.

If he sucks, can always hook him

 

[Thresher]

untried and untested at nrl id probably take a 500k toby over a 400k unknown that runs a sweet angle at feeble defence 2 passes wide of the ruck

Can it you reckon?

 

[Chopper]

What position does Owen Trout play which the article says we are making a play for?

Back row or prop?

Nice to jag a Cliff Watson.

Cliff couldn't play a game these days without being banned...

What a fall from grace this guy experienced. Was never the same player once he left us.

yea went for greed now hes digging for scraps

Leaving a premiership winning team because he wanted to learn from a good coach.

Maloney must have been in his ear

 

[HaroldBishop]

I really cant blame him for leaving. Big money with his health issues, I would have done the same.

Its not like we were offering him chump change. Sometimes these kind of decisions cant just be about the money. He made the wrong one and even he admits that.

Just quietly, would have taken him back on the cheap to fill the Atkinson role

 

[apezza]

Whilst he definitely left for a big pay day, having the two major season ending injuries two years in a row (I think) didnt help his career.

Hell no

Same
But I don’t reckon Dargons would agree to having him as their halfback

Didn’t quite work out for them the first time

 

[AdShark]

Hell no

For $300kish. Theres worse players for your 22-30 spot

Easy to say in hindsight. Would he say it was the wrong decision if his body broke down a few years after taking the money.

It's a tough enough sport as it is, I can't imagine playing it with rheumatoid arthritis. Good on him.

Damien Cook set to sign a 1 year extension with the Dragons keeping him there until the end of 2027.

He will be 36 next season

Mick Ennis 2? Flanno always liked old guys.

He’s still playing decent footy but would have thought he might have been a chance of securing one last decent pay day by going to the bears.
