I dunno, I think Tallis joining as Bennett's assistant coach is more likely than Pearce coming here.


Assistant Coach Tallis: I have learnt so much since being appointed assistant coach of the Broncos, none of it involving Bennett of course. Infact I think we would do a lot better without him and he has lost respect in the locker room including myself, at least that is what I tell myself.
 
Sorry if this has already been posted but I heard a rumour today that if Cronk Joins the Roosters, Pearce may come to the Broncos.

As hard as it is for me too say, i'd take him with open arms. Would work wonders with milford.
 
I mean, apart from maybe the dogs (big time cap issues) and Warriors, we're really the only club looking for a HB, and it'd be a better career move for him than going to NZ. Whoever takes him will only have him for the short term because it's obvious that the Roosters will sign Cronk for 1-2 years before taking Pearce back (whether or not he'd agree to get shafted like that who knows), but that's all we'd need him for.

EDIT: TL;DR: I'll take him if the rorters pay a chunk of his salary.

If we cant afford taylor we aint getting Mitch ( dog fucker) pearce
 
Cronk's agent has confirmed he will be playing at a Sydney club next season, wants to play 2 more years.

Roosters in the box seat according to Chris Garry. With Jake Friend the most likely to be moved on.
 
Pearce is a good club half, I'd take him. Just shits the bed in origin.
 
Wow, I was certain he would announce retirement after the WC.
 
Friend has dropped off a lot I reckon, and Radley looked good in his opportunities and would be a fraction of the price.

Pearce would be great for Brisbane but cannot see it happening.

Where's he going to play tho? They'd be mad to move Keary on after the season he had, and I can't see Pearce, who is a top 5 club half, playing hooker or off the bench - and why would they shaft two very good hookers in Radley and Friend just to accomodate Pearce out of position? The Cronk signing is going to backfire on them big time anyway imo, especially when Pearce lights it up at a new club if he's allowed to leave and stays away from the graveyard that is the Warriors.

As an aside, how the hell do the rorters reckon they've got enough cash in the bank to have the following spine players on their books: Friend, Radley (I'll give him a pass because he's probably on a barebones contract), Pearce, Cronk, Keary, Teddy, Gordon, not to mention the other stars in their side? They're not Real Madrid...
 
**** that. Even if Friend re-signed last time at the top of his game, he wouldn't have been close to a million dollar signing. $500k max. Cronk is a million dollar signing. They shouldn't be able to afford him.

Some say that they have 400k left in the cap

Trying to get rid of J.Nik , hastings they actually might have enough depending what the nrl says cronks worth

Like with any releasing of an unwanted, overpaid player, unless the new team wants to fork out more than a minimum sum, the team doing the offloading saves nothing. Even if someone takes JNik for $200k, it'll only save the Roosters ~$100k as they have to promote another player on at least minimum contract value. Same with Hastings.
