Darius Boyd to follow Bennett to Knights

I know from october 2010 that the player must negotiate with his manger if there is another club wanting to sign him while under contract, still a bit suspicious about Boyd agreeing to the knights being valid

Yeah I know right? Your instincts are a marvel and I suspect you're right about this thing again. You got any other news we should be worried about? I'll copy them down and we can tell them we told them so when it happens.
 
I can tell you that the information I have right in front of me states " Boyd has accepted a 4 year deal to join the Newcastle Knights as of November 2010. This I should add has come from the same source that alerted me to the Wayne Bennett signing . She goes on to say that the Knights will announce this by the end of this week .
You mean 2011, right?
If so, that makes a lot more sense! Thanks for the info!

What are you talking about? Boyd has a get out clause in his contract if Bennett leaves, and since Bennett will no longer coach the Dragons next year, Boyd's 4th year at the club is now optional. He can either play out the last year of his contract at the Dragons or opt out of it and hit the open market, which is what he's done.

Same thing happened with Blake Ferguson at Cronulla. He had a get out clause in his contract if Ricky Stuart left and when he did he decided to bail and Canberra pounced on him.

So yeah I was being sarcastic. I thought I could egg you on for a bit, but...no...i can't be bothered. I'm just going to say you're wrong. Thank you for trying.

where is this mystrerious get out clause, when boyd only signed a 3 year deal not this magical 4 year deal with a get out clause


luke with souths when he ws trying to stay with souths, agreed to Souths without his manager and the nrl will not allowed it until his manager is part of the negations

If you're right about this then we promise to never hound you again. If you're wrong, which you are, please shut up and never speak again. You're kind of retarded.
 
So alot of people are saying Boyd has until tomorrow to make a decision, Carbon said yesterday we'll announce he's signed this week, we know nothing gets revealed on weekends so if I don't hear good news by 3pm tomorrow I'm going to be extremely disappointed at those giving false hope lol I personally cant see anything being announced this soon, Im expecting it to be next week if anything but I'll trust my fellow Knights fan's word and hope they're right and these inside scoops aren't fictional.
 
i suspect we will have a little while to soak up the attention of the Snowden signing, then unveil Boyd's signing, should it happen.

yeah it would take away a bit from the signing of snowy...
but then again it would be nice just to have both the signings in one week,to get them over and done with...
