No

I'll second that. he need s another year of injury free reserve grade to improve to the standard required imo.

Shows the lack of quality OOC backs, when clubs are fighting and paying stupid money for players like Turner,Smith and Mcdonnell.

Rovers made an improved offer to Shannon but he made it clear he is moving on.

I asked Bonesy where Shannon was going and he said home. . .back to Newcastle?

Roopy - any word at your end regarding our want-away full back?

If he'd been duped by the personas the Allams portray then yes mate.

If clubs are willing to pay him silly money, good luck to him. His strategy of signing for one season to 'showcase' himself has clearly worked.

Taylor's contract will have to be a lot better than the one he turned down last month.

Another one who knows the ins & outs of Rovers (and their players) finances. Who'd have thought it eh? A local RL team who's entire supporter base appears to be Financial Advisors.

Not at all Stanley, turning down initial offers is more than likely par for the course with these things. Just something I'd been told, and better contracts don't necessarily mean an increase in wage.

Bartering is common, my boss offered me a derisory amount, I demanded a much larger amount and after much heated discussions we settled on the derisory amount. Bloody recession

Home for Shannon McDonnell is Western Suburbs of Sydney, i wonder if Warren can get him a start back with Wests Tigers.

That Moltzen looks pretty good, think he might stand in McDonnells way.
