JAC (the fox) to maybe leave the storm

[40 nil]

Assume he is going to Wests Tigers. If we had sufficient $$$ + cap room, would love to have him at Manly. What do others think?

Foxx on the run: Storm ‘explore options’ to release star winger Josh Addo-Carr — on strict conditions

Pretty much all other teams when receiving a request for compassionate bye bye - Immediate grant given.

The storm: Only after one more season (2020) and only if they get just as good a player in return. (smh)

So as mentioned elsewhere... the fox wants out.

Now I'm not fully against the storm not wanting to be out of pocket here.... but I just can't remember another club denying the request for 12 months. He's also an Aust winger...so just what player would they accept in return? ($$$)

I see some parts of the media are trying to link the situation with the afl process, if only the games and rules were the same, they may have a point. It doesn't sound as compassionate as it's being made out to be.

Anyway...there you go.


edit: Sorry @40 nil . I was trying to merge my thread into yours, stuffed it up, dunno how to split 2 threads (that's something smart like @Jethro would know) and so I tried to remember what your thread title was. Just in case you're like wtf happened to my title? Plus it's late.

So the storm want: a player of equal value, or salary cap relief, or a transfer fee. How exactly would salary cap relief work??

 

[HappilyManly]

Swap out Latrell and the two rorters even themselves out

Sorry @40 nil .

No problem @globaleagle - thread title very similar to mine.

Don't know who the Storm would want as a like replacement, expect it would be SOO or international standard three quarter.

Dunno, maybe the Rorters can provide some consultancy given they have such a long term and detailed knowledge of how the salary cap works.

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

I'd take him over taufua because hes better... yet id rather jorge stay because hes manly. Does this make sense to anyone but me?

 

[Peter C]

What's the bet he goes to Souffs, who will they medically retire and then long term re employ this time to accommodate him?

This’ll test V’landys out. It’s the number one gripe in the game atm. Players breaking contracts at will. Ryan Matterson is a good example.
As much as I hate the Storm, the trend needs to stop. Im not saying JAC is not genuine in his request. But player agents are pond scum, and would sink to any depths to get their player (and themselves) a better deal.

 

[niccipops]

I like his personality. Quite a character. If he wants out of the storm, can't blame him.

I like that line.

What I hate is that players want to go on "compassionate grounds" yet they also always get a better contract.

Bring in a rule that says you can't accept a contract for a greater value than the one you have for the length remaining on that contract. How many would want to move then?

True, but the new club would just work their magic with third party payments or alternatively what we know as 'the roosters way of doing business.'

I reckon the NRL integrity unit has them covered in the pond scum stakes .....

Gold ... GreenTurd
Silver .... Integrity Unit
Bronze ... Players Agents ...

The system is well and truly ****ed isn’t it , Rort upon Rort for “ the favs”.

 

[Jabuh]

Souths are shopping gagai around apparently so wouldn't surprise to see a swap happening

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

So Souths about to get Arrow, Mitchell and Addo-Carr? Sounds fair.

Rorters get JAC to complement their Blues core side plus thet get to flick another Mitchell
