When Cory signed a 300k contract at Newcastle he was 21 or 22 and he seemed very close to SOO selection because he had already gone well for the Aboriginal All Stars. He was in a lot of demand at that stage.
I think he could still get a decent NRL contract, but reading the article in the Newcastle Herald this morning i think he has decided to take less money and go for a new start. He is still young, but i imagine in two years time he will want to sign for big dollars.
Holding an British passport could mean he is looking at playing for England - can't see why not?

The £70k ceiling has been rubbished by Rob Crossland on t'other forum.
It'd make little sense, tbh. It's very possible that they've said they'll only pay more for 'key players' or something like that, but there are all ready more than enough restrictions on building a squad without adding arbitrary ones of your own.
It's also [ipossible[/i that none of the players we sign this year will be on more than that, but that doesn't make it a policy. |

Whoa! Don't  the messenger. The use of the term 'ceiling' is from a reliable source at Rovers.
If you recall you outlined a tiered-model on how you figured the Salary Cap operated. In many respects each of those tiers operated within a band-width and as such a ceiling. Whilst I don't believe Rovers have a rigid model it makes sense to me your hypothesis wasn't far off the mark, and if my source is right CP fits into the 2nd tier.
For the record, I do not know what CPs contract is worth with Rovers, and I was actually questioning the reports that he was on mega bucks in Oz and then referencing it to Roopys evaluation of CP. |

The same Glenn Hall that scored two against Canberra yes.
As for Cory Paterson, never heard him get a mention on NRL fulltime. |

I saw Paterson play nearly 80 games for Newcastle.
Newton had a few purple patches, but most of the time he struggled to hold down a starting spot.
Cory had his good times and his bad times. During the good times he was one of the first picked alongside Steve Simpson. During the bad times he was still as good as Newton.
Newton rarely broke the line. Cory regularly broke the line.
Cory is taller, heavier, faster, more athletic. Newton...'"
...and he arrived in the UK this morning...  |

HOW on earth do you get NILLED at Wembley ?
When your coach isn't a winner at heart and Gentle is not a winner at heart .
We were a pub team
I coached for a long time and we won 95% of games because winning is a mental state driven by a desire to CRUSH an opposition. Did FC look as though they wanted to Crush Wigan and strangle them until they screamed ? NO
RL is a tough tough game and Maylord She-dong you have no clue
In fact don't ever ever reply to any of my posts again:37721.jpg |

It is sad that "they stuffed his flights up". Chessy's all over it, don't worry.

It's on Twitter you numpty. If you want to celebrate his arrival, go ahead, I'm excited too. Just don't say he's here when his flights have been "stuffed up" and he's in Dubai. It's just silly.

I'm not worried. Just helping you out with the provision of facts in the face of misinformation. You should be grateful. Not me that "stuffed up". Honestly.
