This is great news for the Cowboys and for Qld who will need an experience bloke when Locky retires.

Great result for French union.

Not.









Poor old vichy and their supporters.

with gasnier and thurston turning their backs on union, the media are now saying israel folau is having second thoughts about leaving the NRL

jeeze they pay double and still players struggle to go over

Has Gasnier actually signed a contract with the Saints yet?

hes refused to sign he contract the melbourne rebels and ARU want him too

they rang yesterday asking what was happening.

So he hasn't signed a thing yet?

Sounds a bit fishy. What's the bet Capt. Chin wants to play the remainder of the season with the Dragons and pick up a union contract for next year?

Back to the thread, JT will be staying with rugby league and refused the buckets of cash from the shamateurs.

hes waiting to see if the nrl allows his contract to go through without causing SC problems

im shocked that hes turned down a guaranteed wallabies jersey to play in the nrl.

Fair enough. There would be plenty of room in Saints for him under the cap wouldn't there? How close are they?

nah hes taking $50,000 from us for this year.

hes not playing league for the money

$2mill over 3 years, course not!

French RU will have a salary cap of $11mill next year, I doubt a French club is offering him 10% of their total cap!
