Greg Inglis signing thread.

[Donny]

Did anyone else hear that Lockyer is in melbourne "seeing" the doctors down there about his ribs??

Could he be talking to inglis?? [icon_shru

they just said on Fox Sports News that Lockyer is in Melbourne to receive treatment for his rib cartilage injury. I would have thought he could get treatment in Brisbane for that injury, surely there is a good doctor up here capable of treating him :D

are you suggesting a player swap with Lockyer?? I hope not

HELL NO... i'm suggesting that he was sent down to try to Inglis up here somehow :D

Lol ok

 

[Donny]

So where is everyone getting this info about Dane Gagai going to Melbourne and us getting Inglis? This whole Saga is getting very annoying TBH

 

[noisetheory]

inglis's gf just wrote on twitter 'yayy the boyf is moving to brisbane!'

 

[sydney_bronco09]

link?

 

[noisetheory]

yeah nah im just stirrin the pot.

this whole thing is ridiculous. i think the nrl should just allow the storm to let him go without having to pay the full amount out so we can get back to footy and talking about how bad the refs are going

 

[user_nat]

Twitter search disagrees. Lol

I posted that before he said he was joking.. Well before I saw it.

Which may seem weird because it was about 5 minutes earlier, but that's what happens with lots of tabs.

I am a huge Gagai fan and the kid has a shit load of talent. I don't want to let players go to get Inglis when Inglis could do what Izzy has done and leave first chance.


(Please lets not get into a izzy debate now, I would have taken the money as well)

Where did this Gagai rumour originate from?

 

[Foordy]

BRISBANE have re-emerged as the leading contenders to land Greg Inglis after raising their offer for the Melbourne and Test centre to a figure believed to be more than $570,000 a season.

It is understood the Storm are prepared to release Inglis, and subsequently subsidise the 23-year-old's contract by less than $55,000 a year, but are hoping to possibly have that listed under the NRL second-tier cap next year, not the $4.2 million top-line payment ceiling.

An announcement on Inglis's future had been expected yesterday, and it was anticipated the Storm would reveal they were keeping him. However, the Herald was told the Broncos had finally decided to budge on an offer of $400,000 and a car.

It is believed the rise in their offer of $170,000 a season includes a $40,000 third-party payment by the Nine Network, a Broncos club sponsor. NRL salary cap auditor Ian Schubert, who was in continuing discussions with the Broncos and the Storm yesterday, has insisted this figure be included under Brisbane's cap under the marquee-player allowance, which is to be lifted from $150,000 to $300,000 for each club next year.

Inglis and his manager Allan Gainey have made clear since the saga over his future began that the player's preference is to move to Brisbane, where his fiancee Sally Robinson lives and works.

not happy about paying that much for him at all... if thats the offer i hope he doesn't get released. especially after Cullen had been so insistant for the last 3-4 weeks that we would NOT increase our offer to him. [icon_non

 

[Kimlo]

If that is true then who ever decided to raise it to that astoundingly ridiculous amount(if it's even remotely close to that) should be sacked!!!

WTF 575k for a CENTRE, He's not even worth 500k FFS, he's MIA in half the games he plays!
Seriously I'll be mightily pissed off if even close to 500k, let alone 575, that's 1/7th of the cap on ONE player and a centre at that who isn't all that important to a teams chances...

Possibly the only person in the game worth that is Thurston. Inglis and the storm can get fucked at that price, let the idiots suffer and pay 650k for the next 2 years and lose all their juniors.

I really hope this is just Wiedler dribble.

 

[radicaljack]

Raising the offer by nearly 45%? thats crazy if you ask me.

That's business though. He called our bluff. Good on him.

I say throw whatever pocket change we can find at him. He's a game breaker.
