Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3090844, member: 9052"] Pretty sure Fifita would be on holidays... he's basically been in rep teams since the season finished and I think it's a requirement of the RLPA that players get a minimum of 4 weeks off after the season finishes. I suspect Fifi probably won't be back at training until January. We would be talking with his manager who would also be talking to Fifi, but I don't think he'll sign until he's back. I believe the club is also looking to sort out a long term deal (4-5 year extension), so the negotiations could take awhile. I think he'll end up with $700-800k per year, which I think is about par with what the big clubs in Sydney would be willing to pay for a 2nd rower as well... the only risks are if one of them get desperate and throw $1m plus at him or if GC throw $1m at him, but their cap is in a mess and I don't see a legitimate premiership team throwing that kind of money. I also think the figures from NZ are bogus.. they can't have the cash to throw a million at everyone so I half suspect the media quote the warriors contracts in NZ dollars to give it a higher sense of value... kind of joking, but also wouldnt be surprised if it were true.
