The Hoppa Poll . Change vote option activated

[Chunky]

At this stage, not close to 1st grade. Can't defend on a wing and as slow as a wet week.

Ain't seen much to get excited about with AH.
Needs to get a few extra gears if he wants to play first grade.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Personally I haven’t seen anything from him yet which screams future star

Been ordinary today so far. That bloke a few posts above who said he was building up to something is an idiot.

 

[mickqld]

Minimum contract at best.

 

[robbiea]

Whats the difference between Albert and his dad John ??

One puts finger in ,other needs to pull the finger out.

 

[pt73]

ABC radio said the Bulldogs are after him, good.

 

[Woodsie]

I have just activated the change your vote option .. feel free to update your opinion

 

[Ranga]

4 games into his 1st grade career and not even a glimpse of the reputation that preceded him. I would honour the 250k but if another club wanted to pay more, I’m happy for them to take that risk.

 

[XV-1]

Will any team want Hoppa after his first 3 weeks in FG?

is the 250k off still valid from Manly?

I changed to 150k.

 

[The Who]

Hoppa Jnr just played himself either out of a contract entirely or a $150,000 a season salary reduction.

Played himself into a Woy Woy jersey.

 

[Captain Moondog]

Bullfrogs can have him

300K a season for me on a three year deal, Albert is a class player.

I get that he has not performed in his games as well as he should, he has improved in a couple.

He has class and great skill, a natural footy player and I hope we get to see him at Manly for a long time.

 

[Tomay]

Let him go. Minimum wage prove it contract for a season if he wants to.

This is a joke right?

 

[Waz13]

He’s young yes but I’ve honestly seen nothing to get excited about. He’s not tall and rangy nor short and explosive. He looked as slow as Jorge on sone of those raids today and still barely going in looking for work. Seriously this kid right now is not even in the same league as Elliot, Garrick and co. I hope he works hard over the offseason and improved into next year.

 

[BOZO]

This is a classic example about how the next step up in grade can expose players ability
Hoppa was all class playing at lower grades but at NRL level he cant keep up with the pace

 

[Dion Johnson]

This is a joke right?

No mate, from what I have seen of him Albert in his career that’s what I would do.

I do get that he ha looked ordinary in first grade, though he has a lot of talent.

Even the best can look ordinary, Turbo had a shocker today.

My thought Alberts a keeper and a future representative player, I would look to sign him for three years around 300K.

 

[ManlyTragic]

Gees this thread makes an interesting read. There are a few people on here that were pissed off at Des letting him go to the warriors that have now changed their tune!

if nothing else it provedDes was right.... the kid is not ready....he hasn’t played footy for 2 years and that’s not even NRL level.

just sayin

 

[Scorpio]

I would look to sign him for three years around 300K.

If his performances so far warrant $300k per season then I wonder what kind of player we expect to get for around $100k (minimum wage).
