Said on Humberside he is the highest paid player at Brissy, 275,000 a year (dollars)
Would not come cheap, but then talent doesn't. Would be a surprise if you got him IMO

Highest paid player, or highest paid Prop?

Neither.
It was Forward

Ahh, couldnt see him being on more than Lockyer tbn,

that was gollom spouting rubbish again

£152,484 BPS at todays rates. I think it will depend on the length of the contract imo, if its over a three year period as i suspect it will be, then i believe the amount on offer, will work out less than what he is currently earning per annum.
If we are succesful in our attempt to sign him, it will be a major coup for the club as there is no doubting his ability, he is fast for a prop and aggresive too, it would make our pack very formidable indeed and help lay the platform for our relatively young but now more experienced back division.
Lets just hope it comes off.

yeah, your facts are correct mate, clinton is on a small fortune at the broncos..farcical really when you consider the value they have got from him...and the players they have released due to salary cap restraints ie:hannant,eastwood,berrigan etc since he was signed....but...when he signed from penrith to replace webcke, all in brissie was thinking he was the man, unfortunatly for whatever reason that hasnt materialised..lack of form and a change of management didnt help, but also filling the boots of a qld legend was probably the hardest thing to tackle....
still a quality operator and will fill a huge gap in your forward line in my opinion due to his style and size...
also abit of a looker for the ladies, so they new calendar will sell quite well no doubt..


the battle of clinton if he signs and o'meley will be fascinating to see in the derbys....may the best man win

Indeed....



If the deal come off, could Clinton and Vella be the fastest prop combo in history?

maybe clinton but vella isnt as fast as what he used to be...

Understatement of the year. The best looking player in the city by a country mile.

It wasn't too long ago that he was just a few metres from saving a breakaway try from Tom Briscoe though, was it.

You double clicking your mouse again???

TBF Tom isn't that athletic

radford nearly caught rangi chase last year at cas...he was sooooo near...








aboout 50 metres away...

Still, it was a good effort for a prop forward, being my point.

Don't forget speed demon Matt Sing too.

....and Kirk 'the snail' Yeaman

ask, that ginger winger you had on loan from saints..cant remeber his name..he got skinned about 3 times from the scrumbase play at training and morgan went beserk...

Ian Hardman.

Average on the wing, absolute quality at full back (or at least he was for the last few games of 2007). Lack of pace is why he is no longer in SL (at Fev now, via a stint at Widnes).

thats the fellow....a forward stripping a back tho infront of everyone at training followed by a ribbing then a spray from ya coach might not have done him the best....

What I meant was that it was not rubbish to say he was on 275,000 dollars a year.

no but it was rubbish to say he is the highest earning player at the broncos by gollom who should know better as RH's rugby league editor, surely he can't have forgot who darren lockyer plays for????

He should know better but he doesn't. We all know he gets a bit carried away when reporting on stories about Rovers.



Seriously though I think Clinton will be a good signing for Rovers if it comes off. He has clearly had some personal issues off the pitch as well as losing form on it and a spell in Super League will give him the chance to kick start his career.
