You sure?

I was just reading a Bennett quote from yesterday saying he would be interested if he came in to the market.

Might have happened today, or a grab from Bennett ages ago

Interesting. Thought he was too small for that.
Wayne loves having smaller blokes with a bit of ball playing and footwork come on in then middle when the opposition forwards are getting tired.

According to News LTD, it's true. I guess the chase moves on to Dearden or Luai.

Though if it's just money, Luai will go to the Tigers.
A shame. 5/8 is one last piece for the puzzle to make us a serious premiership force in the immediate future.
Luai doesn’t fit personality wise.

Dearden it is for mine
Hes very dumb. No doubt about that but as far as I can see, that's the extent of it. I wouldn't mind seeing him signed. But rumour is the Tigers are offering him 1.4mil a year! He's worth a mil max for me.

theres no way that tom would even think of leaving cowboys and joey wouldnt be coming here either
Why? Word around town is that he is more than considering it. It's likely. Just a question of where he will go.

from who cowboys wont let him go in hurry
Most clubs really have no say in the matter with how NRL contracts work.

More often then not, clubs have 0 power coming to the end of the contract, and when the player is in the middle of a contract, they can still force a move on compassionate grounds.

NRL contracts aren't worth anything. So, the Cowboys not wanting to let him go plays no part in whether he is going to move or not.

lol you do realise the compassionate grounds has be oked by club and nrl and very few get them




no club in history doesnt have say on contract negotiations thats why dealings with players and there agent negotiate with clubs and why many like ezra and othjer players linked her chose to stay

wouldnt think there be any club in pro sport that would jusy give up and not negotiate

I have seen one player in the last 30 years get forced to stay at a club. Ben Hunt, and that’s not over.

When a player wants out they ultimately get their way. What’s the club goi g to do to a player taking up a shitload of salary cap, that doesn’t want to be there.

Can you imagine a club playing a 1 mil player in reserve grade? And because that said 1 mil player doesn’t get his way, can you see him putting in 100 percent?

Dude, the clubs have 0 power.

And that’s not what you said.

You said Cowboys won’t let him go. I was just saying that doesn’t matter.

Clubs often don't have any choice due to salary cap pressure. Cowboys signed Holmes to play fullback for about a mil a year. Then there's JT. Nanai. They're under serious cap pressure.

Lots of clubs don't want a player hanging around after he's signed for another club. Usually they don't. It's about long-term planning.

and you just proved what i been saying 99% of the time the clubs are in negotiations with all party's hence why some contracts take longer to sign 1 in 30 years tells me clubs must be doing something right


most of the clubs now have 3rd party deals which a lot of time they and the 3rd part deals are the sweeteners


hence why a lot of players stay for less says something for the club
