lol yeah fucking right, he's on $1.3m a year at the Knights, and Origin payments are like $30-40k per match.
He, at 26, is going to come and play for the Hurricanes for a max of less than $200k, and hope he makes the ABs to make, probably less than his Knights income? I'll believe it when i see it.

Maybe he gets some 3rd party deals which push his income up like Benji and I assume RTS. If you've dreamed of being an AB it's possible you'll take that kind of pay cut?

it is contract season and his manager would be stupid not to sound out different opportunities, but reality of this happening are zero to none.
Anyway going to the Canes is like going to the Tigers..maybe final contract for retirement

Rude. That’s a shocking comparison.
Who wouldn’t want to be a part of an upcoming backline that includes Roigard, Godfrey, Higgins, Love, Proctor, Barrett etc.
Don’t think it would happen though.

I just love it when league players rediscover those boyhood dreams of being an All Black when contract negotiations are a foot. Warms the heart aye.

@SBW1 it's amazing how many articles come out of one line by Beaver.
True or not, it's not a bad ploy by Beaver to get himself some free publicity.

He dis the same about George Bridge going to the Chiefs a couple of years ago too, which sparked a similar reaction.
-
He spends more time broken nowadays doesn't he.? Concussion and other issues. One hell of a talent but not sure how much longer his body will hold out.
-
If Nathan Brown can score a $13m contract with Newcastle, imagine the money Ponga could get. No way he switches to Union, especially to NZ.
-
If someone was paying Nathan Brown that money i might actually die of a heart attack.
It's bad enough the Knights are dumb enough to pay Dylan Brown that money
-
Look, Melbourne have made a success of the "spend all your money on your spine" but they pick the right players and have Bellamy to coach the rest.
The Knights and Dylan Brown and AOB is the same but like from Wish
