Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 3481663, member: 8814"] Really happy we didn't sign fifita. Dodged a massive bullet, just like the contract he is currently on. What people don't factor in is his attitude is shocking. That's infectious, especially when half the team are your mates. I dont know the guy but i cant imagine that if the Titans started losing and then he'd be the one yelling "just focus on defence guys" or "trust the process, stick to the gameplan" and unfortunately for him he has put himself in that paypacket that when things go wrong people will be looking to him. The ironic thing is that haas and carrigan look likely to make far more in their careers then fifita will. Regulars in origin side alone mean 45,000 a year, likely more sponsorship, but then on top of it all, now their contracts are going up and his are going down and will continue too depending on how much the cap changes. I do hope we use this money widely. Schneider, sexton or Clifford as a back up option to madden. A couple really experienced hard-nosed forwards in the middle and edge (frizzell, sione Maituatai, Curtis sironen, Josh King, Scott Sorensen etc), and an experienced back to replace everyone of arthus, j pereria and/or quai ward we lose (Daniel tupou would be huge for us I reckon on a 1 year deal to recapture the metres we lose with farnworth and teach mariner if he's willing, a strong back 5 to unload forwards is the future Penrith have shown. If not, a legitimate option if Mariner doesn't work out and pressure on all 5 to perform like arthurs is). We don't need a hooker, Walters and paix are good enough that we don't need to rush mozer YET, but he should be ready next year anyway and looks legit). I know the media will make out we lost him haha.. I get the feeling they already knew and used it to drive the broncos in crisis narrative despite beating the back to back premiers at home ffs haha. Btw, Imagine 2 of our players did what luai and salmon did? Or what Mitchell and wighton did? Haha it's a fucking joke. But tbh, we really, really did dodge a bullet here, stacking your salray cap with an overpriced forward pack gets you bottom 8. Spine, spine, spine with hard nosed players around them with a couple leaders. No matter the era, that's what wins you games... [/QUOTE]
