Yeah i thought he might be worth a try in the forwards ....maybe after his dummy spit and all the other crap going on i dont think he's mentally invested in the team....the injury toll this year allowed him to play more games than he probably deserved along with the ex captain

Nothing in it. He's currently off contract. That's the start and end of it. Anything else is pure speculation.
Is this what you mean by things getting worse?

You could see where the link to Lodge and the Warriors comes from having his brother and father in law at the club

Glad to see someone around here is still optimistic

how bad a lowball? Let’s be realistic here, his defence leaves a lot to be desired. now that could be partly to do with coaching but half the time he was literally in no mans land near our own try line not even seibold would coach that. He’s just busted his knee and now seems he’s not doing his rehab correctly? He’s not even played a full season. Yes he has lots of potential but come on we’re where we’re because of paying pretty much rookies too much.
unless of course it was a ridiculously low offer.
how much would you all be willing to pay?

His father was the storm’s dodgey recruitment officer and current Warriors recruitment officer who just gave his busted son a career lifeline by giving the promising young half Adam Keigran to the roosters. I’d be filthy if I were a warriors fan.

Somewhere either side of 400k would be fair you would think

I think Staggs sees himself as an elite center. He isnt at that level yet and i honestly dont think he has shown any signs of improving his average defence. I think $400k is about right for him as it stands, but he needs a contract that has the room to improve if he does.

I daresay he feels that he's worth $600k, but to me that's top tier for a center... and by 'he' I mean his manager who wants a payday.
By low balling they probably offered him $350k, which is probably too far under. I think he's still on his first real deal outside of NYC, so he's probably on $250-$300k and definitely deserves an upgrade.
I think this instance is where player options are useful ... say a $400-$450 with player options for two years.
If he kills it then he earns his right to upgrade to a better contract, but $400k isn't too bad for the broncos to hang onto him.
Instead he'll probably get $600k with two years of player options, just so we have to sweat every 12 months

I actually think he has seen what Fifita did and he probably thinks he can get a couple of teams doing the same for him

I wouldn’t be surprised if we rarely see Staggs fending players off and sprinting away for a try once he returns. Teams will do their homework on him and the good teams will shut him down. Toe boy has a long way to go before he should demand big dollars.

Seriously, losing guys who want to mercenary themselves around will be a good thing in the long run, no matter how good they are, it shows a real lack of ability to be a team player.
