Korbin Sims to Red Hill

[pagey]

Has he signed?

I don't think its been confirmed!

 

[Jason Simmons]

Has he signed?

Channel 7 reported tonight that he 'is set' to.

The link is on Chris Garry's twitter feed.

Cowboys would be crazy to let him go. He's going to be looking for a good payout but he's vital for them now they've lost Jummy and Hannant. Without Scott they will be in all sorts. Highly surprised if they let him go.

If it does eventuate, I think it's an astute signing for the Knights. They have money to burn, and they lack leadership. Scott is long in the tooth but he's still a gun. Rarely dominated in the contact, never gives an inch, not penalty or error prone.

Throw him into their pack, he'll lead from the front and the young ones will rally behind him. Two years of that would likely get guys like the Saifitis, Barnett, etc, up to scratch.

I would be extremely surprised if the cowboys let Scott walk out the door. He is most likely just using the knights offer to get himself a better deal. However, if the knights blow the cowboys deal out of the water he might leave

Unless they know something about an injury or his body starting to give out on him.

Sims is a done deal

Korbin Sims to Broncos official... both parties agreed to terms. Sims taking a major pay cut. Believes Broncos can make him Origin player.

 

[mitch222]

I wonder if we are going to have to cut someone

 

[Unbreakable]

Excellent news, not only that he's taking a pay cut, but that he's aspiring to become an Origin player. Welcome back Korbz!

Long-term back-ended deal no doubt.

I think we had a bit of room to move this year in our cap. Not much though!

 

[Broncoman]

It could work, he does have some ability and Bennett could do something with it. If he got him playing consistently he will turn out to be a good signing.

 

[broncsgoat]

Wow Knights are going to be even worse than last year

Hopefully, he'll be another Blair. As in Bennett getting him on track.

He's on $85k for us apparently, he's not even in our top 25.

That would indicate that we old have to cut someone or remove someone from the top 25. Looking pretty ominous for Jimmy. I'd say he's as good as gone.

no way the nrl would sign off on that
that and the rest of the nrl would have a grade A whinge about it

nah I still think they will improve dramatically
they have made some decent signings along the way to help them defensively

 

[MrMoore]

When I hear the commentators say "Sims knocks the ball on", I will get depressed.

There's no reason for them to not register that contract, what do you mean? That's a 2nd tier contract, $85k. He played like he barely deserved a top 25 spot for the Knights last year, it's not like we're signing a superstar for $85k.
