We signed someone worthy! Fantastic Brisbane. You rule.
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.
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.
Going from a deal worth 400k to a second tier deal. I don't think the NRL would be so lenient on signing it off

They're not bad stats when you consider he was in a pack getting obliterated on a weekly basis.
I would like to see the comparo with someone like JWall and a couple of other similar players but I can't get it to work on the iPad.
According to what I read, he was actually on $350k a season, and the Knights have paid him $90k to piss off, we're paying him $85k - So he's getting exactly half of what he's owed for this season, it's a back-ended deal though, so over the next couple of years we'll probably make up the difference in that $175k he's still owed.
Exactly.. i know when I'm playing competitive sport I'm definitely not getting the satisfaction i need losing week to weekyeah, i'm happy with this pick up.
for Sims, he's gone from a club staring down the barrel of another wooden spoon, to a club who would consider themselves genuine premiership contenders.
Do we have any solid confirmation of salary?Happy with the signing. In fact, at that price I'm stoked. Solid pickup.
Nothing solid, but 85k sounds about right. Part of his salary will be paid by knights already, and he's taking a paycut to come here.Do we have any solid confirmation of salary?
I read the Knights won't pay a thing according to the newscorp article..?Nothing solid, but 85k sounds about right. Part of his salary will be paid by knights already, and he's taking a paycut to come here.
