The Cronulla Sharks are set to offer Bronson Xerri a massive five-year deal in hope he will commit to the club and fight off interest from the Sydney Roosters, according to The Daily Telegraph.
The Roosters are looking to replace Latrell Mitchell after he departed for South Sydney last week and have earmarked Xerri.
The reigning back-to-back premiers plan to throw the kitchen sink at Xerri next season with Brett Morris, Ryan Hall and Mitchell Aubusson all coming out of contract.
The Daily Telegraph reports that the Sharks aren't happy with the Roosters approach to a possible switch as Xerri is contracted until the end of 2021.
NRL rules state clubs are not allowed to talk or approach Xerri until November 1.
Cronulla want to finalize a deal with Xerri prior to the anti-tampering deadline and plan on taking action against any club attempting to encourage the 19 year-old to break his current deal at the end of the season with a year still to run.
of course DRUGNULLA of course
The team of the decade, and 3 time premiership winners in 7 years do not need Xerri
The young Billy Smith under the tutelage of Robinson and Fitzgibbon will be a gun, full of heart and one hell of a soul.
Hopefully we can keep him off Nana Glennโs farm… we all know whatโs in those paper lunch bags rusty hands out
If you donโt know yet, have a look at the new car Little Inglis fat Papa is driving around.
Bit rich when Gooster supporters whinge about paper bags and salary cap cheating….
How does Souths become part of this article? Obviously you guy’s or one guy, simply can’t handle your jealous rage about Souths out of your system, grow up or get theraphy.
Would be wise of Sharks try to lock him down with a long term 300-350k a season offer kid has alot of potential and is lightning quick, what ramifications are there for the anti tampering policy all clubs know the policy but still don’t seem deterred by it “Shock.”
Thats right penso, “jealous rage”
The roosters will never deal with Latrell going home to his beloved Rabbitohs.
BTW, Xerri doesnt like soy lattes.
the cheating sombreros no chance getting him especially when he sees 2 premierships stripped as confirmation how they did it.
If true, & If/When time comes, f xerri doesnt accept the offer, just like “Bubba Mitchell” didnt, then just like the roosters did, Sharks should withdraw their offer & invest elsewhere.
Lane if Mitchell is a gun what will you say?
Well said Mole!….bronson who?
The Chooks DONโT need him – Billy Smith and Joey Leilua will carve it up in the centres for Easts this year. Should be upgrading young Billy soon….he has all the qualities to be a Rooster for life – LOYALTY being his best attribute.
Go the Mighty Roosters for the hatrick this season. ๐๐๐
Ah crap, apologies (was reading another article)….Joey Manu….not Leilua….but still, another great ex chook!
Good boy Brosnon don’t even think about those steggles chickens….
I said this yesterday, it’s worth repeating to these mongs, i.e Penso & the deluded 21/SHADOW (same clown who I call cut & PASTE)… Souffs supporters are the spoilt brat child in the NRL. Race Card, don’t want to sing, Cap exemptions …. you know what I mean…

Penso are your serious? ..
sooky Surgess gets belted in a couple of games, sees no future for any blingโฆ pulls the pin, a week or so later heโs carrying a woman around on his (sore) shoulder in Mexico.
Our wonderful ambassador for our Indigenous folk gets done for speeding whilst under the influence of alcohol (DUI) โฆ loses the Australian captaincy (reluctantly as he and big Mal thought there was no case to answer), meanwhile GI gets fat, blames everything for his โconditionโ โฆ.. both these boofheads saved Souffs a ton in salary cap relief and the NRL bought it..
Really Penso, you think Souffs arenโt getting special treatment? โฆ are you serious?
VALE Mark Harris – Warrior and Legend…..rest in peace brother.
Donโt worry Chookstir, the vermin can get ALL the special treatment they like from the NRL…theyโll STILL CHOKE, and weโll still smash โem this year (as will every other team, in the forwards).
Theyโre trying to play the โweโre THE indigenous teamโ card…but itโs gonna backfire big time – too many egos and too much bad attitude in one team….Seriously, they have anfony โthe thick headโ mundine recommending players for them…thereโs only one way thatโs ever gonna pan out for soufs ๐๐คฃ๐๐คฃ
I just love the censorship around here. Why only me?

I just love the censorship around here. Why only me?
poor shnookems, you’re starting to sound like a Souffs supporter
Off topic not about rabbits or Roosters
Just happy to hear Titans can free up some of Latus 500k to Warrington, Reports have Thompson not staying on with Saints after 2020 I hope Holbrook is negotiating an early release would be good to see him at Titans this season. I know no one cares about Titans or Warriors just ask channel 9
chookstir, poor shnookems my foot. Just goes to show the hypocrisy of this site. I will never, ever, support the Rabbitohs.
Yeah panthers18….if you post something they donโt like you saying about soufs, you just get blocked. Yet there are some who post on here and can get away with saying anything they like.
I was having a go at Brennan.Lane, yet his carry on, and that of others, are allowed, The Great Northern Rooster, so you’re right.
Cant blame him for wanting to go to a good club.
If he wants to further his career he goes.
The censorship on this site is idiotic, you can use the word r0rter, you can use the word D.R.U.G., you can’t use the word sh0nky. I sat there for 15 minutes looking at a post that refused to be post basically changing every word until it went through. The site should be called Zero Credibility given it allows toxic culture to thrive here and yet allows puerile cr@p posts form the same 3 or 4 people hijacking every thread.
Isdon when was that announced ?
Brissybunny I posted the link about Latu for you on Flashes story made more sense to put it there
Xerri will be staying at Cronulla & Smith will miss the season at the Nuggets.
Everyone knows what this will mean. It means the Nuggets will definitely be out on a centreโs collection drive. It was a halves collection last season. When they were desperately seeking to replace Cronk.
Centres this year!
All good is don woke up this morning and saw the story.
Have the Sharkies borrowed the salary sombrero from the Bondi boys.?
Johnson, Moylan, Graham , Fifita, Woods, Ramien, Morris and now Xerri on big $.
Are they going to โself report โ again this year?
