Set to sign new one-year deal
Michael Crocker’s manager says the South Sydney Rabbitohs’ co-captain is so close to extending his contract at Redfern that he might have re-signed this week had his home not been burgled five days ago.
The 32-year-old enters tomorrow night’s preliminary final against Canterbury-Bankstown at ANZ Stadium a free agent for next season but in the kind of form that justifies South Sydney’s desire to retain him.
The club tabled a one-year offer to Crocker, a former Queensland and Australian back-rower and grand final winner at Melbourne, but it has remained untouched for seven weeks.
Crocker’s agent says they are comfortable with a one-year extension. ”We’ll definitely re-visit it early in the week,” Purcell said.
Hes still playing good footy at his age and deserves another year or two at souffs
agreed
And to think, 2 years ago he was on his way to Hull FC…
He almost retired back in 07-08 and was looking down a poor barrel in ’10. I hope he resigns for another year, he’s an inspiration to South Sydney and the NRL.
I think south Sydney can win the comp
You would be wrong. Even if they beat the dogs Melbourne have already proven they are classes above Souths already.
the look on madge’s face when we lost reynolds he knew we were gone no playmaker no kicker and no foresight and we were all over the dogs at the 25 min mark when reynolds did his hammy.
The dogs went straight through the middle of the rabbitohs. Reynolds defending outwide wouldnt have stopped that. They were always going to lose and always will.
If Souths don’t sign you crock cum to the Eagles
time to retire when you become so frustrated you give away too many penalties! SS better off with a young gun instead.
@paulie thats why doggies were behind and bunnies were dominating posession and field positioning until reyno got injured.. Doggies could barely reach their own half after luke scored .. Im not even a rabbitoh supporter and i could see that .. Always going to lose and always will “? Stupidest most arrogant thing i have ever heard !!
Dumbest thing iv heard is you. Ill repeat it for you Reynolds defends out wide and they went through the middle. He wouldnt have helped. Souths will always lose because they cant win the big one.
