Can the Roar find another way to do the signings article, by mid year your scrolling for days to see recent posts and it really hinders conversation. I wonder if the filter is heavily used on this thread when compared to others…
2024 NRL Transfer Centre: Souths land Super League half, three-team trade confirmed
Geoff, ask Tony, apparently the Raiders and Eels has the same opportunity to sign Cronk as the Roosters, all they had to do was approach him.
I’m pretty sure the convo would of been something like….
Raiders: Hey Cronk how about joining the Raiders
Cronk: Is there a Fox gig for life after footy included in the $1 mil?
Raiders: Yeah we can’t offer that because the the bloke who runs Fox sports is a Roosters tragic.
Cronk: Well sorry fella’s I want media gig to look after me post footy so have to pass.
Raiders: No worries Cronk, we have heard this story before.
Two NRL coaches, 20 seasons between them - and bugger all to show for it
Besides Cronk making the statement ‘Want to go to Sydney’ upon announcing he was leaving the Storm, which made it pretty obvious they where not in the mix, did it prevent them having a go, perhaps not. That fact alone suggests they did not have the same ‘Opportunity’ as the Roosters.

Bwahahaha yeah right…
Raiders had the ‘Opportunity’ to sign Cronk, out of humorous curiosity, what real world circumstances did the Raiders have that where the same as the Roosters, beyond Cronk deciding to leave the Storm?
…that is a dead set laughable statement.

Yeah best replace them with a Sydney team… because that is what the fans would want, right?

Evidence would suggest the Raiders run over Mikes cat, rarely if ever has a nice word to say about them.
ANALYSIS: Raiders win ugly again to stay in top eight hunt - but playing like this, they won't last long in the Finals
Three game articles today… Storm and Penrith win ugly they are great. Raiders win ugly they are crap…

Geoff I really have to praise your patience with the Roar, like social media, posters on this place take almost every opportunity to bash the Raiders and you manage to politely correct them and offer an insight to the Raiders side.
Personally I’ve become so disenchanted with all the ingenious Ricky bashing posts and Raiders put downs that I rarely bother to come here anymore…
ANALYSIS: Raging Ricky 'lost for words' as Storm prove they're contenders by riding roughshod over 'crap' Raiders
‘If’ Wighton starts at 6 or 1 for that matter, without injuries forcing a positional change from Centre. Bunnies might have some questions to answer from NRL HQ regarding Jack’s value.
Part of the reason the deal was rubber stamped for reported 800k was the fact Jack was signed to play Centre and had retired from representative football, thus his ‘perceived’ value was less than a 5/8 with international representative credentials.
Modern Souths being the same as Roosters in terms of cap, a supposed ‘Glamour’ club and a Sydney team, there is a good chance this would all quietly go away even if they do play Jack 5/8 or fullback.
*Can someone explain why carriage returns don’t seem to work?!?*
Pressure Points: Wighton could be the last piece in Souths' jigsaw – or the albatross that will hang around their necks
