Re: Josh Hodgson signs with Eels for 2023

Genuine question, here, but does a player's contract value have to be paid? Could a player opt to forego some salary in order to secure a move they want? For example, let's say Hodgson is on $900k for his final year at Canberra. If he opted to sign for Parra for $600k for three years - because he's...

So, cotric left us for a year to get paid more to recover from injuries and we get him back fresh at a cheaper price than we were going to pay him with the dogs topping him up? Ok thank you?

Re: Free to leave: Wests Tigers to offer Raiders star Josh Hodgson two-year deal

Raiders were the fourth club to offer Smith a deal, after the recent Starling saga they’re prepared to offload him and Hodgson and put all eggs in the Smith basket. Don’t want offer to be made public incase offer is rejected and it upsets Starling. Raiders waiting to hear back on offer before resig...

It's like buying a new car. You're seeking an upgrade and the best value for what you can spend. That’s actually a great analogy.

Re: Newcastle Knights halfback Mitchell Pearce emerges on Canberra Raiders' radar

If we're limiting recruitment to finding a halfback that will deliver a premiership it's going to be a long wait. Exactly, there is a line of thought, and not directed at anyone in particular, that if you can’t hire the best, you may as well stick with the worst. It's like buying a new car. You're ...

That game was all Ponga. Yes, Pearce had a few plays including the field goal at the end. But, Newcastle’s attack is worse than ours if you can believe it. Mitchell Pearce is unfortunately not the messiah and won’t bring the Raiders a premiership. He can barely get the knights 12 points a week even...
