Yeah but 4yrs @ $400-500k is probably where he's up to at the moment... really the Broncos should've locked him up last year before he made his mark on first grade.

I'd argue that these are the priorities:
2. Oates
6. Milford
8. Lodge
11. Su'A
12. Fifita (Biggest priority of all)
15. Flegler
18. Carrigan
19. Dearden
Everyone else is nice to have but these are the guys you can build your side around.
This is also not taking into account Haas and Isaako who are already locked up on long-term deals.

It was a move that had Bennett vanity written all over it, and one of the admittedly few reasons I wasn't as upset to see the back of him as I thought I'd be.

TPJ is as big a liability as Boyd with his hamstrings in many ways. I dont see what makes Pangai Jnr up there with the best forwards in the game. On his day he is, but he is nowhere near consistent enough to put him in that bracket yet imo. Like i said before, he is miles behind Taumalolo ( who he is compared to a lot ), who at a similar age was far more consistent. For Pangai to earn the big dollars and a long contract, he needs to stay injury free and start giving us quality, consistent displays every week.

Yep, sure, now watch him do just that in Roosters colours, while we are forced to sit back and watch plods like Boyd, Nikorima and McCullough get a run.

Sua and Carrigan pretty well locked up now as well... maybe also Deardon

What makes you think he will suddenly stop getting hamstring issues? Its been ongoing for a few years now.
If he can get bigger money at the rorters, good luck to him. He may prove worth it down the track. There is no doubt about his talent, i just wouldnt pay it right now and right at this moment in time i dont think he is worth it. We just cant keep every single player on big money based on what might be. Fifita seems much less of a goose than TPJ and doesnt need to have people constantly in his ear about staying off social media and keeping his ego in check so thats who i'd prioritise.

I can't believe I have to run with this again so soon, but I will: A team full of good blokes doesn't win premierships.

A team full of injury prone idiots doesnt either. And there is a difference between having a ruthless, Nasty streak on the field ( Slater and Smith spring to mind ) and some of the quite frankly embarrassing rubbish you have seen from TPJ both on the field and in social media. Being told all the time to pull your head in isnt great.

You're only arguing that now because the TPJ to Rorters rumor is gaining legs. Where was this opinion last week after TPJ single handedly demolished the Cows?

What a crock of shit. Go back and look at what i wrote on here after that performance. I said he played well, and as i said at the time, he did exactly the same against them last year. I'm smart enough however not to judge players based on one performance. I said exactly the same last week as i'm saying now, he needs to consistently perform close to that level most weeks to put himself up there with the best in the game in his position. The Dragons game is a perfect example of why he isnt there yet. He didnt play badly, but his intensity, defence and discipline wasn't anywhere near his Cowboys performance.

Nope. We're well stocked in the front row. We need a halfback and a hooker. All other concerns are secondary.

It’s not good business when our best edge backrower is playing lock.
