Loyalty is a two way street, he was on big money while he spent 2.5 years "away" and when he came back and we signed him up again he was talking to the Warriors and we ended up paying him $750k per year to stay another 2 years, he isn't worth that amount now, we have made an offer and his manager is seeing what's available, up to him to either accept the offer or he can accept someone else's, maybe he can show us some loyalty..

I tell you what with Panthers missing out on Fifita and Titans now down a backrower with big money, I’d want to be getting this Su’a deal wrapped up ASAP.

Fifita to Roosters official now. Guess the Clearys leaving Penrith swayed his decision.

Ah loyalty, a long gone and forgotten niche in life.

Where are the Clearys going? Thought it was one going to NZ? Did I miss something?

Does anyone believe he isn't getting paid x2 after retirement whats registered in the cap???

Nope, Money is also invested for them for end of career similar to superannuation.

And it's not counted in the cap. I hate the Rorters even more than the Shonkies nowdays.

I just don't know for a few reasons.
1. It wasn't his fault. He was unjustly accused and the cops had to fabricate evidence to make charges stick.
2. If the club didn't fight the NRL for at very least compensation for his salary, the ringleaders, Brian Johnston and a few others should be arrested and jailed for bringing club into disrepute. The fact the club didn't fight the NRL over the suspension was criminal enough.
3. It was my understanding the Warriors offered significantly more.
4. Stupidly insulting offers usually mean it's a face saving way for the club to say, "We wanted to keep him." Though well run clubs don't bother with that.
5. 750k is surely too much (though I wonder how much Frank Molo is on. Because JDB deserves double that.) but over in the JDB thread it seems he was offered significantly less than 500k.
Woah, I thought it was just Jett Cleary going to NZ. Nathan & Ivan leaving Panthers too?

I thought Nathan was signed for about 8 years only 1 or 2 years ago.
I'm worried the recruitment team think too highly of themselves & the club as a destination for potential recruits. I've got zero confidence in Flanno & the current recruitment team to obtain quality players.
Do I think we could land some potential gun youngsters? Yes, easy to sell them on opportunity for 1st grade.
Do I think we can land proven quality players? Hell no.

Flanno won't give any a chance. Couchman's were among the better forwards last year under Carr, this year they are kicking down doors in NSW Cup but still can't get a look in despite the first grade team playing so badly. It's comical!

Perhaps the real issues lie with the players managers who since 2021 have put the Dragons last cab off the rank. Is there a big issue between club management and the players managers? Is it because of our poor club and team culture and discipline?

I would have thought player managers try to send their clients wherever they can make the most money because player managers get a % of that. Though the Roosters probably have a separate deal where they pay player managers extra off the cap.

True. Jack has to realise he cant demand the sort of coin he once had and take what is on offer if he wants to play out his entire career at the club he loves. Still big money from a SL club is a big lure.
