Re: Greg Inglis to Brisbane

Why we're not letting Quinn go is beyond me. Duffie and O'Neill will hold down the wings with Chase and GI in the centres. Quinn's a waste of 300k to have. could only be that Storm couldn't find a taker for him or his salary. If Storm had to cover 150k it wouldn't be worth letting him go. Let's be ...

Re: Greg Inglis to Brisbane

Basically only 5 players who were recieving illegal payments NOT declared to the NRL this year will be in our 2011 25 man squad. Based off the HS figures the total salary for the top 25 (not including illegal payments) is about $600,000 below the cap, but those unregistered illegal payments need to...

Re: Greg Inglis to Brisbane

This article says that GI's parents have settled in Melbourne and love the place. Only 2 weeks ago...the daily crapagraph (i think) reported that GI's parents were moving back to NSW or QLD. 2010 has proved just how poor the journalistic standards in this country actually are. The entire journalist/...

Was Danger dropped on Satdy night...or wouldn't he play ?

with the impending roster announcment early this week (according to Gauci) and the increasing possibility that GI will stay...is it possible that Danger hasn't been offered a contract and cracked it given that he has held off on other offers to hopefully stay. I have no knowledge whatsoever....it ju...

Re: Eels at it again

Some very notable examples of AFL players wanting out of their Club and basically sayingthat they would never go back...seemingly having burnt their bridges. Wayne Campbell from Richmond and Brett Thornton from Carlton are 2 that come to mind. Campbell was very signifcant...he was not staying at Ric...

Re: Eels at it again

Gauci Ponissi said 3 weeks ago when the Cronk rumour was 1st doing the rounds that Cronk would not be leaving the club under any circumstances (or words to that affect). I'll try to find the article and post it here. July 7th...The Austalian "MELBOURNE has issued a hands-off warning to Parrama...

Re: Greg Inglis to Brisbane

"Another factor is Greg's parents. They have just settled in Melbourne and they actually like it there so it all points to Greg staying. My gut feel is he will stay. " Greg was wanting to stay there all along, if the salary cap stuff never happened Greg would never have thought about leav...

Re: Eels at it again

Only passing on what i have been told but someone inside the parramatta club, the offer is more than what he is currently on at the Storm. He has toured Eels HQ with his manager and all signs were very positive. There is absolutely no doubt that he could be playing elsewhere for more coin than he i...
