The Knights are trying to move Saifiti cause they have salary cap issues. Thompson is opting out and testing free agency because he is upset Saifiti is leaving because he wants to be mentored by an older player

We have sooo many older players on our books he maybe over mentored here.

JFH and Leo Thompson would be a nice pairing. Support crew of Zyon Maiu’u, Sifakula in support. Yeesh want a forward pack …

Once kiwis camp comes around, surely Fish is in his ear to get him to come home

 

[CWC]

Thanks, since we have like a million leftovers and Walker might leave, we could have

JFH
Egan
Barney
Capewah
Marata
Tohu
Bench - Clark, Thompson, Saifiti, Sifakula

Stuff the backline we'll just roll over the try line with our pack

Things are looking up, if this good news keeps coming we might get Best and Ponga as well so we can throw it out wide

You can sell your arse to fundraise the $1.4 million a season ponga earns on behalf of club and fans

 

[CWC]

We'll just put Metcalf at the back with headgear on, he'll play just like Ponga, concussed and injured half of the season, at one third of the price

Can't guarantee his full price, but $20 is $20

 

[CWC]

Is $20 per working adult enough to fundraise it in this country though?

 

[Noitall]

You’re a bit full of yourself

Mate if Metcalf is only injured half a season then that's a win for us!

If everyone here pays each other $20 for sexual services, is it counted towards the cap?

As long as it's under the cap!

 

[Worried2Death]

Thread's taking a weird turn.

Just did the maths, we'll never make enough to afford Ponga. There's only one answer, Noitall you'll have to start an OnlyWarriorsfans, it's desperate times.

It really couldn’t be any better- the timing of the Tonga game

Leo, Griffin Neame, Dylan Brown and bunch of other boys will be having captains run, on the opening day of free agency, literally 50 metres away from Webby, Cappy, and CG’s offices lol

Shit - I''m only worth $5 and a paperclip

Just for shits and giggles lets have an Origin level pack and bench but Kingston Rovers level back line. What could possibly go wrong>
