Roberton to Brisbane

[repta]

I have heard through the bush telegraph, Roberton has been up in Brisbane seeking somewhere to live.

He has told his management he is unhappy with what the Saints have offered and has indicated that Brisbane will come to the party.

NOo sure what happened to out war chest of available funds to protect someone that will run close to All Australian

[The Fireman]

Yeah, that sounds about right

[Trev from the Bush]

Yeah, being a Frankston boy who jumped at the chance to come home from WA he'd be looking to jump ship to Brisbane - what, with their premiership window wide open? Oh, that's just broken glass where the window used to be.

Given the absolute crap season he is having why would we want to keep him?

[Bernard Shakey]

Considering he came to us to be near he and his wife's family, I doubt he's moving to Brisbane.
He's a Seaford boy!

There is some absolute rubbish posted on this forum masquerading as rumour

[saintsRrising]

I have heard through the bush telegraph,

So was this "bush telegraph" after yesterday's 3AW rumour file? Or before.

PS: Many high income people buy investment properties in other states.

[Waltzing St Kilda]

Seem to be a lot of rumours spun by other clubs keen to make us panic and squander our
war chest on existing Saints.

[Stephen Theodore]

Absolute rubbish

Is the bush telegraph like the NBN?

Is the bush telegraph like the NBN?

No the bush telegraph is vastly superior to the NBN.
Even the bush telegraph's business plan was written on a piece of paper not on a drinks coaster.
When you use the bush telegraph you don't have to pay charges for virtual data and virtual bandwidth that don't exist because the real world data and bandwidth raises insufficient income.
And no-one has to wear red underpants on their head when you use the bush telegraph.
But most important of all the bush telegraph is more reliable, no fibre and no copper.

[Sainternist]

I hope this is merely a bulls*** rumour. We can ill-afford to lose him.

Nuthin wrong with the NBN Ace. I have got a radio link to my place and we are in seventh heaven. Previously, we couldn't even get standard ADSL and had to rely on a mobile device that gave us a whopping 8GB/mnth for $50 bucks. Try explaining the reason to a private school why you daughter can't download or submit her assignments online with the old mobile device! NBN is the best thing since electricity where I live. Now, if only I could make a mobile call from anywhere but the family room............

Investment property. Prices are better than MEL and you get to tax claim a trip north in winter. Gabba doesn't have a roof either.

[WellardSaint]

in breaking news, repta is revealed to be either BigMart or CityPest
come back to stir trouble again.

I heard this on the bush telegraph, by the way

[WellardSaint]

he's got 3 kids.
He was really keen to move to Melb from Perth
when he was a Docker, because he and his wife were homesick.

3 kids, living near wife's family, means you can spend quality time with extended family, all those important events
like birthdays, family celebrations, family bbq's

Move to Brisbane and you know nobody.
In a while, wifey gets despondent because she was "dragged all the way up north for your job"

Sounds like a brilliant plan.

My sister moved to Qld years ago, with hubby n 5 kids, and sometimes for Christmas,
my immediate family would pile into a couple of cars and do the big drive up the Newell Hwy
as a road trip, spend 3-4 weeks with them.

Yep, first we'll trade Billings for Goldstein and then we'll let Roberton walk to the Lions and coax Jesse White out of retirement on a big dollar offer..

More likely to be CityPest. BigMart didn't stir trouble.

I think Carlisle retired Jesse White.
He was going ok and then Carlisle wiped his career out in two short hours.

[samuraisaint]

He's a Seaford boy!

Karingal.

[bigred]

May as well shut up shop now if we let him walk after a season such as his.

Folly.

Is the pelican back in charge of list management?

Yeah, I have family who went to school with him, and still are very close. He's going nowhere!

Damian Barrett is in "stirring mode" yet again.

He thinks he's got a story based on a dream he had, or maybe someone who looks like Robbo was spotted in Brissy.
Robbo has that universal "boy next door" look about him, must have doppelgangers everywhere

You're joking right?
