I would have Clint Gutherson in the top 5 fullbacks Parramatta has ever had. He's not in the same league as Thornett or Hayne but he's up there. I remember when he came to Parramatta from Manly, he started on the wing and played a couple of games there. I never thought he would go on to play over 200 games for the club, become the captain, become the 5th highest try scorer in the club history. He was the heart and soul of the team for many years and he will be missed.

I don't think that there is really much difference between Moses and Gutherson as captain. Both of them have the same temperament to me or attitude. At the moment I don't think we have any other candidates that are suitable for captain so Moses might be put as captain and Gutherson would be vice captain.

Melbourne 💯 knew about the salary cap breaches in terms of the players knowing. There was a few players including Cronk, Slater, Smith etc who all signed two contracts, one with a lower amount which was submitted to the NRL and the real contract they were on. Even if hypothetically they didn't know, you would still realise that you were getting paid more than what you signed on at the time.
@theparracavepodcast4 ай бұрын
Yes this is true that perhaps the players did know they were getting more then what they signed on for but what I was saying that Cronk for example wouldn’t have known what Smith was on as one would assume players wouldn’t divulge that info to each other.
