Storm now chasing Tom Hazelton to replace Welch

And you just know they'll get there man

And you just know they'll get there man

New flat screen TV in the lounge and a Ranger towing a boat in the driveway will seal the deal.... and at "half" his current contract.... at least according to the "official" contract sent to the NRL.

 

[Mr Drag]

And you just know they'll get there man

They would have to throw the money to get him and they are not known for paying overs!

The Storm have put forward a bold bid to poach Tom Hazelton immediately from the sharks having cleared 400k of cap space from the immediate retirement of Christian Welch. wtf!

Statement was released from Tom’s management today.

Wonder if a big unit like that means NAS is surplus to requirements?

Storm reckon no interest in Hazelton. Interesting he has the same manager as Dylan Brown

That agent is the one we should be throwing tv's and Rangers at. Is he Jahome Hughes' manager too? Wonder how many boats he wants for all three.

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Okay, so Dylan Brown is in auckland this week for his brother's wedding, are Cameron George, McFadden and Webby on that guest list?

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Surely if he's here in auckland he would be visiting HQ?

Roll out the red carpet and get wining and dining!

Sounds very coincidental... are we sure he even has a brother

 

[BangBro's (still banging)]

Are we sure he even has a brother

Not sure but Kevie walters just called him out in the post match and he didn't deny he was coming here.

 

[MrFrankWhite]

I think we should go all in on Brown

 

[Worried2Death]

I think we should go all in on Brown

One of us needs to crash the wedding and plead our case to him. I say we send in Wrighty or Sup, they're the most convincing.

All well and good for nrl to highlight players breaking contracts, but clubs are pretty quick to shop players that aren’t performing or not in their plans anymore

These guys are on unbelievable performance based money.

The reality is the ones released are not performing and won’t be meeting internal KPI’s. Releasing them is a nice way for both sides rather than the clubs firing them for not meeting KPI’s (performing to their contract).

It isn’t tiddlywinks (amateur sport) and it’s not like our everyday jobs earning 1/10th what they earn.

This has come from Shane Flanagan wanting players held to their contracts referencing the Francis Molo situation, so while there will be situations you’re talking about, this isn’t one of them. It’s to do with one of the coaching staff that made a comment that hasn’t gone down well with Molo. I find it pretty ironic that one of the most brutal coaches in Flanagan is complaining here, being the Volkman chocolatey shoulder that he cut his contract, making the dragons look pretty amateur in how it was all handled amongst other things across his coaching career. Some spotlight should be cast over nepotism, which he could have some questions to answer with many not seeing his son as worthy of a place at their club. His dad might have him perform better perhaps

Knights Sebastian Su’a off to dolphins on a 3 year deal. Tough for knights, they were hoping he might fill a void with Leo Thompson leaving at the end of 2025
