Whyte locked in

[Chook2]

Chammas just reported roosters have locked up Whyte to end of 2029 on around $750k
was to 2026 currently

well done an absolute must re signing one of the best props in the game and could carry us for a decade

certainly worth the money

750k a season? I'm loving what he's putting out right now but surely that isn't right for a player with just the one season under his belt and just the 3 national team caps

Great news!

Thanks for sharing.

Awesome news, genuinely could be a top 5 prop in the game by the end of the year.

I was watching some highlights of him from 2021 when he was emerging as a second rower... I can't think of a player who's had a bigger body transformation, feels like he has grown a foot and a half since then.

That’s awesome news. We also need to make sure Toia is locked up for a long time if not already as his SOO selection is going to drive his value up.

Toia is a Rooster until the end of 2027.

I can ask him to stay longer if you'd like.

We should offer him an extension. I’m sure the club can manage without you. Tickets…..

By my estimate we have $400k left to offer DCE which may be the deal breaker.

23 - Best Footy in front of him and Came though the same pathways as for an example

• Sandon Smith -23 this year
• Ethan King - 23 this year
• Suia Wong - 22
• Jacob Preston - now at the Dogs - 23
• Xavier Va'a - 22 this year

Absolute bargain. Also protects us from the new franchises that have money to burn

He reminds me of a young Siua Taukeiaho. I think 750k is a fair price- he would attract a bit more if he went on the open market considering he just turned 23. Good luck to him-he deserves it

No a Morgan Gibbs-White

$750 may be towards end of contract
compared to what Collins and Leniu are on now and their output - mainly Collins this is cheap

sst mould for sure - doesn’t seem as quick but still good footwork and leg drive in a bigger body

[HDTONE]

Yeah great news.
I like his style be does his thing without fuss or agro but puts that energy into motoring forward.

The quiet achieved. He's grown as a forward. He's gonna be a gooden

Worth every cent
