Possibly not, but it all depends on what he can get over there, I suppose the new Dolphins franchise is a lifeline for players like him.
All I know is that he was coming and that was at a point where we pretty much knew we were facing a significant reduction. So there must have been the budget for it at some point, or a sponsor lined up.
That said, since then we have made three significant signings, so that will certainly have altered the dynamic.
As I say, signing AF is not a money thing it's a David thing, that was the reason we were in with a shout, now as you say that window has possibly closed. Shame because I think it might just have worked!

Reading this, I think those who still think AF nay come, need to give their head a shake. I've just read on the Fox website that his contract was worth around 800,000AUD. That's about £440k in our money
Another example of poor journalists just rounding up comments from here there and everywhere. That comment is at least 2 months old.

Announced by Cronulla that he has left the club, almost every comment on Instagram is from Sharks fans asking why Billy has been allowed to leave and he will be missed. Clearly a fan favourite, saw a few comments claiming Warrington were looking at him. They’ll have the quota spots as Inglis, Austin, Akauola and Mamo have all left with Clark still not confirmed for next year. |

Announced as going to Warrington.
Clearly he just followed the wrong W on Insta.
Shame, he'd have been good for us.

Josh Bowden (29) at 6ft 2 and 17 1/2 stone is still available, has got a few good years left in him with something to prove and probably won’t demand a big contract…. Just the type of player Trinity picked up in the past… eg Westerman.

Frankly, I have no idea as to his current plans but he's clearly not worth that now is he. If he stayed in the NRL he'd be lucky to get half that, probably less. Also, is that per year or the contract in total? Does make a difference.
We could probably pick him up for 80 -100 k P/A deal now which is nothing like the figure you quoted. It's not cheap but it's not beyond the bounds of possibility.
Let's be right here, if AF did join us it's not about the money so much as linking up with his twin at the twilight of their careers, that's our drawcard for Andre,w not the cash. I doubt he'd come to SL for any other reason, but then again stranger things have happened.'"
He was in a coma in August and had major life saving surgery so I don't think he's joining anybody any time soon. |

I believe he’s 100% fit and recovered.
His surgery was life saving true but it wasn’t major in the medical sense. It was also an induced coma if I recall which is not the same.
People are put into induced comas for all kinds of reasons but I suspect in this case it was to allow his body to relax before surgery.
I’m not diminishing his injury but from what I understand it one of those if it goes right a 100% recovery one, which is great.
Can’t see any reason why he isn’t fit to play now. I’ll look through Google, see what’s been said.
All the same I don’t think the deal is a goer anymore. |

He was but not to us, he is joining Warrington from 2022. |

Magoulias saying today Trinity were the other serious option for him after we came in with a strong bid.
Think he would have been a good signing for us, his style would suit the way we play.
He also said the major draw was working with Powell…he will soon regret that decision! He may get results but not many of his players enjoy working with him. |
