Conspiracy theory

[Guest]

Does anyone else think this whole mitchell, perett fiasco smells a bit fishy.
Why would a long time servant of the club in perett want out mid season just because his contract wasn't going to get renewed next season wouldn't he want to end with a grand farewell.
And with Mitchell he was finally getting a consistent go in first as starting hooker even why wouldn't he wait until next season as his stocks were gradually rising.
I don't want to suggest anything the daily telegraph can use as an "exclusive" but some answers into why the boys want out and why were letting them would be nice.
Anyone else agree has an opinion?

What are you alluding to? They were jut solid average players who were given better offers elsewhere.. Also Mitchell is a QLDer

Here's a conspiracy theory , they are driving the Roosters into the ground, we will loose sponsorship, fans will become disillusioned, other supporters will call for our expulsion. Then they will sell the Roosters license to WA. Who will care if the Roosters are gone.?
Hows that for a conspiracy.

Mitchell was pretty straightforward - he had the chance to secure a contract for next season up North and we weren't offering a contract next year. He is a fringe first grader and trying to secure an opportunity and we consistently are fair to the player in these types of situations.

I think with Perrett, he thought he was worth more than we thought he was worth and maybe he felt we should be just giving him what he wants because he has been around so long. He is a solid first grader at best and this will not change at Canterbury.

These situations are not unusual in the game these days - I'm not reading too much into it.

Sadly the truth is usually far more boring than the speculation.

This sums it up. I don't understand why Canterbury would want to sign him for three years? They
seem to have all positions covered, and I can only imagine they may put him in the centres.
I wish both players the best of luck.

The boughtdogs want Lloyd. To get him they offered Sam a long term contract. As they happen to also be short on wingers ATM and we are going crap they thought they'd try and get Sam to leave mid season. That's my humble opinion anyway!

I'll watch people kicking and passing a football around the local park (Snape Stadium as we called it at school) before I watch the Perth/Central Coast/Southern Brisbane Roosters.

The answer is simple in Perret's case. As has been the case since they were caught and disqualified in 2002, and then went on to "win" in 2004 fielding an almost identical side, the bulldogs simply have no salary cap. The "private sponsorship" rort, which includes ANZ Stadium and God knows how many other "private" sponsors, now makes it technically legal under the fine print (or lack of) of the NRL.

Yeah. If they were Aryan they'd be clean, hey?

Perrett was a Kiwi international who stopped getting picked (not saying it's all us but the Chook's form wouldn't help his prospects.) He possibly wanted to look after his brother's future too.

The real story is Anasta was told to leave for the Tigers before June 30. One can only hope and dream!
