Israel Folau target number one!
« on: July 03, 2008, 09:22:11 AM »
If there has ever been a player that we should target from another football code, its Israel Folau!!!!

19 years of age, 196cm tall 103 kg's, extremely fast, agile, has excellent hands and the hangtime he had in that grab he took last night in the state of origin was purely sensational! He can obviously already tackle so all we would need to do is teach him how to kick. I know he's heading to the Bronco's next year but as he's only 19, there's still plenty of time to try and poach him. I believe we should stop at nothing and I mean nothing to get this kid in the yellow and black. Let us be the first club ever to convert a rugby league player into an AFL superstar.

So who's with me???  :pray :pray

Billy??? Blah... where would you play that twirp?? I can't stand him.  :chuck Folau would make an excellent KPP! I say we pay for his commute from Brisbane in a gold plated learjet. Someone at least call his manager. He would be our version of Buddy if we could get him. Maybe even better!! As I said, all we'd have to do is teach him how to kick. That shouldn't be too hard for our coaching staff should it??

The reason the AFL are now offering 70 grand contracts to Queensland kids without even playing a game. Folau's a freak. Awesome specky last night  :clapping

I think we'd have to pay more than 70 grand MT to secure his services.  :lol

While watching the game last night I actually made the comment to the household after he took that grab that the kid would make a very good AFL player :thumbsup

Great! And I'll put in $35 which will give us $100. The exact amount a guy from Nigeria who emailed me recently said he needs to release 5 million dollars from a frozen account of which he will give us 50%!!  :rollin

We're on our way WP!! I'm just waiting on his email reply detailing the release of his money and the wire transfer of funds. When I get it, I'll call Israel's manager and offer him 2.5 million to come to Tigerland.  :rollin
