Rumour: JWH to the 'Riff?

[Nicola Tesla]

What show was he on??

[GC6]

100% seeing out his contract. Will either get a short extension or head to the south of France.

Maybe Robbo can give him a few french lessons

He will be a 2 club player and we are his second club.
Pretty sure we signed him from Manly reserve grade and what did he play there, 5 or 6 games in first grade while they were a basket case.

The only way he might go elsewhere is as a retirement fund that a club is prepared to pay massive overs when he is about to retire.

[Johnny Tobin]

They were apparently confident of getting him but now I hear he will get a new deal.

I can definitely see JWH staying without too much of an arm wrestle, as he is part of the furniture, loves everyone here, and i doubt he would be getting THAT much more by going elsewhere.

The Roosters who I guarantee has days numbered with us is LATRELL.

Someone will (or quite possibly has) table something to him in the vicinity of $800,000 - $1,000,000 for him to play Fullback (most likely the Rabbitohs or the Dogs) and we simply won't be able to compete. It is sad, but i'm about 98% certain 2020 is the last year we'll have him.

[ConGa]

they will offer him a mansion....in Struggle Street!

Robbo on nine news with WankerWeidler was very definite that he is going nowhere

Made his debut in 2009 when they were defending premiers so they weren't too much of a basket case! We signed him on potential and paid massive overs at the time. He was on something like $250k and everyone was blowing up at Manly saying it was ridiculous money.

[Bansai Pipeline]

He was a psychopath when he arrived. Extremely raw.

Was speaking to his mum a couple of years back, he came to us because Manly had offered him $60K a year to stay there. He was looking to get out of there, and luckily we stepped in. I think he played for the Kiwis shortly after we'd signed him.

OK, thanks I thought he came here a few years before that, I thought it was around 2006. It does seem like he has been here forever.
If that is the case I guess they really couldn't afford him with the sort of money we paid him, they had a decent team around then which would have chewed up a lot of the salary cap.
