The suggested number is $1mill/year for 6 years. Cows definitely needed something. They weren't going anywhere with the squad they had this year.

Very true but I still think it’s a bit of a risk both for the length of contract and the value of it. It shows how desperate North Queensland are

[Clogiron]

With a shiny new ground the Cowboys needed a big name signing to help fill it. They will be hoping it provides the same boost as Parramattas did to their fortunes.

Penrith have signed Cronulla utility Kurt Capewell, with the 26-year-old joining the club on a two-year deal.

Good news for Titans fans as A J Brimson has re-signed with them until the end of the 2022 seaso,

Talk is that he'll pull the full back jersey on.

Handy pick up

Todd Greenberg has confirmed the golden point system may receive a shake-up next season with a competition point given to the losing team.

But Greenberg was adamant that the under fire golden point concept would not be scrapped, saying he was no fan of games finishing in a draw.

Quite a turnaround for Michael, really pleased for him. It looked like his career was heading for the oblivion like Uate but he’s dug in and deserves the new deal. He was excellent for Tonga recently too

Why didn't we buy Capewell? I hope we at least spoke to him.

Brisbane board member Darren Lockyer has confirmed to Nine News that Melbourne halfback Brodie Croft will join the Broncos on a three-year deal.

Croft has played 39 games for the Storm across his four-year career, and is set to be released from the Storm’s roster in order to join Brisbane.

“It’s been talked about for a little while now. It’s signed, sealed and delivered – Brodie is coming for three years and I think he’s going to be a great addition to the squad,” Lockyer told Nine News.

[Graham]

Former Storm five-eighth Ryley Jacks has been handed a lifeline from his old side as a potential replacement for Broncos bound Brodie Croft.

According to NRL.com, Jacks is back training with Melbourne and has been handed a train and trial deal.

The 27-year old spent two seasons at the Storm from 2017-18 before crossing to the Gold Coast Titans this year.

He played 13 NRL games for the Titans before departing at the end of the season where he has since been without a contract.

11 home games plus 1 game at Magic Weekend at Suncorp = Sharks complete quota of home games for the year.

I assume they are doing work at Caltex/Endeavour/Woolooware/Shark Park.

Fortunately he has the huge brain of Anthony Mundine guiding him so Swinton and Rochdale are probably still a chance.

Is Mundine his agent or just a freeloader ?
