If manly paid frank anywhere near 250k to 300k as mentioned on here they have got rocks in their head. I cant see how he would have been on any more than 200k max.
That’s what I thought but Smokin Joe has good knowledge of the club and that’s the number apparently. Madness but there had to be a reason why we had cap trouble yet no depth.And that sort of stuff is the reason I suppose.

If that's the salary then we'd still be paying half of it. The 'Riff wouldn't be paying much for him.
Frankenstein was trying to make the Australian Rugby Sevens squad which trained at Narrabeen next to Sea Eagles headquarters. When he missed out on selection Manly was desperate and gave him a lifeline for the latter part of the season. It would have been a base rock-bottom salary. If he was re-signed for $250,000 a season then I hope that Manly official is no longer employed by us.
 
Bring in Miskie please.

I still think Frankinstein is a prop. Definately has a go, has the physique. Time out of league has hurt him as far as reading the game. Thanks Frank never doubted your effort. A try saving tackle that won us a game vs the cows stands out as one of the more gutsy match winners.

Interesting last minute curve ball I must say.
 
Yeah that was actually a real piece of **** move on his part that he was convicted for. Probably no need to joke about it.
I agree it was a silly thing what he did and he payed the price for his wrong and I hope he learns from this that it is wise to keep sex tapes in house and private like most of us responsible people do .
 
1 less anti-vaxxer on the northern beaches. Way too many to go...

I acquired a delayed response auto-immune disorder due to a MMR vaccination. All my kids are vaccinated as am I and my wife, however, these anti-vaxers aren't all crazy. There are things that can go wrong.

I know that people think 250 or so is too much for a guy who did not perform,but that is irrelevant to the circumstances at the time.When he signed his last contract,Siro and Frankie were our starting second rowers.Thompson was still on the horizon and our only other second rowers were Lane who at the time was underperforming and was moving from prop to lock to second row,and Gosiewski who we had picked up from the Bunnies(both were on bargain basement contracts).Frankie was weighing up an offer to move back to Japanese rugby,but chose to remain with us,250-300K is not that much for a starting second rower for a club with no other options...(the salary cap is 9 million dollars,an average starter in the NRL is on around 250K when you factor in the elite earners and basement contract players into the mix).Now we have Thompson,Sironen,Gosiewki is firing and Waddell as well(along with Olakau'atu and Schuster) and 250-300K now looks ridiculous.DCEs' contract looked ridiculous at the time,but now it seems par for the course.

Agree. I’m anaphylactic with penicillin which I learned the hard “or swollen” way so I know proven medicines can still cause bad reactions in some. The greater good prevails though and reading something like how his wife is going to Samoa etc. to spread anti-vax stuff she probably pulled from a Facebook post does my head in.

Wow spreading an anti vax message in a third world country will literally kill kids. Very sad.
 
Master release by Des, love it
Seriously if he was in our top 17, we would be in trouble.
One by one the dead wood will go a la 2006 and onward
Agreed and the TB squad will be dismantled
By 2021 top 4 should be a realistic target.

He avoided conviction, but yeah, a piece of **** thing to do. Would probably be looking at a longer stint on the sideline if it happened now.
 
Brian Kelly replaced by a player with more speed that was lacking from last season in Garrick

Winterstein replaced by the younger and much improved Corey

Amone replaced by the forwards that stepped up from the lower grades from last season

Walker (no one knows what is going behind the scenes with dispensations . Who knew about Frank going to Penrith ? No one )

Fainu is a footy star and a porno star . He is a stud on and off the field

Off course the pessimists can not see anything new about our era
I believe Garrick will be a better player than Kelly. I reckon he will be our buy of the year. I have high hopes of him
 
Thanks for your services winter.. next in line to go will hopefully be Hodko, Perrett, Parker, Sipley
