Almost as good as Paul Kent’s backflip into that tree
Underrated comment 😂
Roosters and Politis got rejected. Now they use their power in the media to slander the bloke who rejected them. Classic.
Don’t forget Braith speaks to his mentor Uncle Nick every day
"What new information came to light?" I'm gonna put a tinfoil hat on and suggest this: The Ponga saga. Fifita was being offered 200k less, so in order for Fifita's move to be worth it, third party deals had to have been a part of it. Once the NRL investigates Ponga's case, they also have to investigate Fifita's case because of an outlier change in his value. So Fifita stays at Titans and keeps quiet about the conditions of the move and take whatever criticism the public gives.
I concurr.
I think its more likely Hasler and David's family convinced him to stay and Roosters are embarrassed they got rejected and are trying to make it seem like it was their idea to pull the pin.
@@sando5517 yeah look i was just spewing some fan fictions for the entertainment. Your idea is way more plausible. Reminds me of a Linkin Park song
"To save face, how low can you go"
NRL approved the 3rd party deal, just that the 3rd party didn't pay on time
Haha what bullshit you are dribbling the nrl don’t investigate third parties they are the ones that sign off on them some people have no clue
I'm a Souths Supporter but gee it's good to see James Graham's face still around in our game he's a legend love him
Hoops saying Fifita's conduct was piss poor, coming from a garbage journo that's a compliment. And there's no way Roosters pulled the contract, they were rejected and are just trying to save face. It's good to see players rejecting the Roosters.
Did you listen to what Jammer said from his own experience with Des? He didn't just reject the Roosters, also Panthers and Dragons, he just backflipped on the Roosters. He rejected clubs where he had to improve his defence and and couldn't just score consolation tries off the bench
The NRL is a business, if any player was not preforming he would not get a contract, journalists need a or make up a story to sell themselves, I get annoyed with these never played in the NRL analysts
Penrith may be a powerhouse club but can Hoops please tell me the last player who was cherry-picked by the Panthers? They develop their own talent and buy those who not wanted by other clubs.
The ball washing these journalists give Politis every time his name is brought up is embarrassing.
Six weeks ago Rothfield wrote an article showing that the Roosters could not come close to fitting their roster under the salary cap. Former roosters player Braith "Nick Politis is my friend and mentor" Anasta got angry and insisted that everyone plays at the Roosters for less money. Since that time, Rothfield has done a 180 degree turn. When the Fifita story broke, Rothfield claimed that the Roosters now had a $4m war chest from 3 1/2 players (who played for peanuts of course) leaving. It's not hard to guess why Rothfield has folded like a silk hankie.
Ah ok are they allowed to play for unders ?
I remember when The Roosters were trying to sign Sonny Bill and the Eels were trying to sign Israel Folau !
Bloody Ian Schubert allowed the Roosters to sign Sonny Bill on big money and the Eels weren't allowed to sign Folau for unders as they didn't have a lot left in the cap and he was happy to play for the Eels for unders but Schubert said no ?
There you go that's Roosters privilege from a fellow Rooster 😂
Absolute rubbish journalism
Money, kids...
I think dave just realised roosters will probs be further from winning a comp next year than the titans and hed be on less money not that hard ro figure out.
Love it. Listen to these roosters apologists. The deal was dodgy. We are all tired of the joke that is the roosters salary cap.
David on his burner account
Fifita should spill the beans on what he was offered under the table.
Keep crying 😭 you’re clearly jealous and wish your club was anywhere near as good
Are you salty sook at home too or just on social media?
Get over yourself Russell
why is hoops so cranky, he didn't sign anything. Doesn't owe anything to any club
Hoops thinks hes so much more involved in stuff then he is lool
He's trying to be Kenty
@@DjDmt is he going to 180 into some tree now?
@@MusMasi We can always hope...
@@MusMasilmfao
Dodged a bullet on signing the next Dave Taylor.
Well played David!
What did Fifita do to Braith😳🤣 dude salty asf
Hahaha yeah Nick Politis with a net worth of over $2b was up all night worrying that someone wasn't coming to the Roosters 😅 throw me a freakin bone here. More like he's trying to save face because someone said no to him.
these journos really are sycophants, a player does anything, and i mean anything even wrestle a team mate its front page news but a Journo brawls in the street its dead silent from the media. And they are crying about the possible hurt feelings of a Billionaire like the sky is falling down. James Grayhams face is so funny when he listens to their bleating.

careful yt might delete your comments they did mine, seems they care about the feelings of billionaires as much as these Journos oh no, someone said no to him, the sky is falling down!!
100%
Nick Colitis was up all night with bowel issues.
They couldn't fit him under the SOMBRERO
😄😄😄
Watching James Graham's face as these face for radio Journos are spouting garbage is the best part of 360
He’s just as bad as them.
NRL 🌳60
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Well done fafita your team is building to something special under hasler,give it your all mate your a great player just play out of your skin for your team get them in the finals god bless you young man
Building to something special, lol.
Get them* he's not the best player in the team lol brimson is,
Anyone that actually thinks Uncle Nik pulled the pin on this deal has rocks in their head. It’s got all the hallmarks of someone cracking the nanas because they were reject.
Exactly. Anyone who thinks that the Roosters pulled their offer first are pulling themselves. NRL contract negotiations are a crap shoot. Sometimes you roll snake eyes.
Anyone who thinks he didn’t pull he’s offer has rocks in there head
Not a titans supporter but I’m happy they keep him. They have been showing some grit
Uncle Nick gave Braith and Hoops the call lmao. Roosters PR department in full force
I don’t know why the Panthers were mentioned on the same snatch n grab category as the Roosters.
looks like the roosters are losing their check book and ability to poach players. their not the club they used to be.
its hilarious watching the media try blame fifita, he has every right to not go to roosters they are just salty because they missed the player they wanted most and he turned them down.

Fifita just raised his price up with the Titans...He made a mockery out of the Roosters by backflipping.. H e always wanted to stay in Queensland.
*back flipping
As a roosters fan, for some reason, I just didn’t like it when I first read about Fifitas signing. Now I’m happy that he has backflipped.
People are allowed to change their minds
Fifita, you drop 10kgs, play centre, and you'll be the next Meninga!
Who the flip has the penrith run over the top of for signings hoops you flog
It'd be Roosters and then daylight as 1 and 2 on the poaching list
Yeah I was like what? Huh? You are using the Panthers as an example? Panthers Export players on a massive scale to other clubs, not poach em.
@@connorrose4560 yet roosters have more players in there squad who made there debut with the club then most other clubs in the nrl
I was about to say that as well, leave the Panthers out of that particular point 😅 flipping ridiculous
@@danielkelly4487but have the Roosters won 3 premierships in a row? Nope 😂
As a Roosters supporter I'm happy he changed his mind I couldn't understand the signing in the first place.
pissed of Crighton for nothing.
@@MusMasi Yep made him feel unwanted. I'd rather have Angus and SitilIi who love the Roosters than a bloke that is a could be.
Agreed.
He's lazy as
Elite talent, not an elite player
Like latrell
@@ryanhartin7377 He makes a couple tries out of nothing every game (either scoring them or setting them up), 12 points is 12 points. I don't know why dynamic gamebreakers are so undervalued just because they aren't meathead "work horses". Its such a dinosaur mentality. You need both for a truly powerful team.
Uncle Nick got to cocky and Des slipped under his guard. Good on the Titans! Great out come for the game. Don't forget DCE back flipped on the Titans. So the Titans knew how to counter this time around.
Would the news on the Kaylyn Ponga salary inquiry played a part in DF's final decision, I wonder?? Something is definitely off here.
More like they want Ponga instead
James Graham - "Most of us had hedged our bets and put 60-40% he would choose the panthers over the roosters" hahaha so roosters had a 60% chance also? 5:25
Hooper getting fired up when Mr Anastasakis laughs at him is piss funny
Clubs discard players like scraps of offal yet we’re meant to be concerned about how a club or their ceo feels about a player giving them the heave ho? Give me a break.
There is an NRL mandated 10 day cooling off period, there is no deal until the cooling off period has passed.
Nick and Dave know this.
There was no deal.
And it's not like that Fifita signed anything. Just the carry on by Captain Potato Head & Bulldog Ritchie, is quite laughable.
All these people who know the goings on at the Roosters. Should come forward with their evidence.
The evidence is their roster, which could not possibly be fitted in under the $11.65m salary cap.
Tedesco $1.1m (contract signed at the peal of his career.)
Tupou $0.4
Suallii $0.7m
Manu $0.9m
Dom Young $0.5m
Keary $0.9m
Walker $0.4m (recently said to be negotiating an upgrade to $1m per season)
Radley $0.7m
Creighton $0.7m
Collins $0.9m (just extended)
JHW $0.9m
Brandon Smith $0.9m
Spencer Leniu $0.7m
That is $9.7m in just 13 players, putting Sam Walker in at a low rate. That leaves $1.95m under the salary cap for 15 other players. The minimum figure under the salary cap from the RLPA is $130k, and 15 x $130k = $1.95m. Does anyone think players like the Butcher brothers, Connor Watson, Tupouniua and Billy Smith are ALL on the bare minimum? Of course they aren't, so the players in the table must be on much less, which would be way under their market value. If any Roosters supporter would like to show how they fit into a $11.65m salary cap with realistic salaries I'm all ears.
Uncle Nick ? Get off his knob Hooper … he didn’t get his way , big deal .. good on the Titans
Best slap to nick l’ve ever seen 😂😂. Well done Dave
He changed his mind, and early. Big deal. The way these guys are carrying on you'd think he cashed a cheque without doing the work.
Sydney centric as usual
He owes Nick nothing
He has a life
Stoked he stayed at Titans
It's better for the Competition
It's an uneven Comp as it is ...
The Rich Clubs shouldn't be Poaching the Star players from the less successful Clubs which they do often. Especially when their Team is already stacked with Talent !
If the Salary Cap isn't working like it should be then bring in a Draft !
Draft has been successfully challenged twice. How many ex Riff players at Tigers and Dogs, hardly top flight teams
@@maxfish4770 hardly top flight teams ? Mate with Mentality like that you must be a young Bloke 😂
Do you support a Corporate Team by chance ? 😂
@blackrose.9927 are you saying dogs and tigers are top flight, you must have dementia
He loves the lifestyle on the Gold Coast!!!!!
Sucked in Roosters😂
We literally don't need him, Angus is far better
@bencousins5488 yeah but you guys did him dirty, Angus will have the shits
No one is talking about the Crichton factor?
Have you ever seen more saltiness in one of these posts?
I'm about this, David showing loyalty to a struggling club, I'd like to see the Titans get some more players now on the back of this
I've got a feeling the management was doing something dodgy and trying to force him to the roosters
1. Jayden Campbell
2. Corey Oates (Sign) - 6"4
3. AJ Brimson
4. Brian Kelly
5. James Schiller (Sign) - 6"3
6. Kerian Foran
7. Ben Hunt
8. Moeaki Fotuaika
9. Sam Verrills
10. Tino Fa’asuamaleaui
11. David Fifta
12. Jaden Su'A (Sign)
13. Chris Randall
14. Tanah Boyd
15. Erin Clark
16. Keenan Palasia
17. Joe Ofahengaue (Sign)
Brimson been fire at full back.
@@MusMasiCampbell is better
Loyalty to his bank account more likely, not that there’s anything wrong with that. Just don’t go suggesting noble motives to his decision.
@@retroray58warby98 I believe his management were pushing to have him at the roosters, and he finally said no, he wanted to stay, we all know about Nick shaddy friendships with agency's
Cherry Evans did the same thing to the Titans years ago…old news
A jobs a job, you go for the big money and that's that he can do what he wants it's his body he puts on the line to play footy and don't forget he's a Queenslander Queenslander
Graham is great on 360
James Graham should go. I don't have the patience to try to understand him 😂
He was always going to backflip Titans are on the up ⚔️ 🤍💙💛
How many years have we been hearing that one. The Titans are Australia’s version of the NZ warriors, lol.
@@retroray58warby98 least warriors have made grand finals and got a minor premiership
Have all these roosters fans forgotten about when tedesco backlipped on the raiders for the roosters
probly feel like dolphins last year with that goose storm 5/8 who you manage braith
So he didn't actually back flip, the roosters pulled the offer after the manager called Politis
For all this fuss Fifita is too inconsistent to earn more than the average second row forward
Did hoops just say " It's a Billion-Dollar Game " Like as in NRL a Billion-Dollar game or ?, Because It F**KING ISN'T LMAO.
Im all for it sometimes things happen spare of the moment, i think he can do as he pleases he didnt sign
😢 poor roosters they are just so hard done. Give them extra 5 million towards their cap because they need all the help they can get
No one will treat anything that David Fifita says with any validity.
Good on ya dave; these guys need to just get over it.
once a qlder always a qlder 🤙
James Hooper has the business acumen equivalent to that of a piece of cardboard 😂 if the deal isn’t right it isn’t right. Never mind who is offended.
😂 ROOSTERS CAN'T GET EM ALL😂
Is it possible Fifita is dumb enough to be shook by Gus Gould saying he'll have to train harder at the roosters?
Mate of mine had it on good authority that Angus Crighton met with Ivan Cleary today, that's interesting. See what happens now, Roosters held off on talking to him because of guys like Fifita.
Source: Mate of mine
@@nekrominh131 he's a fanatical panthers supporter. He hears whatever is going on in panther town.
Heard from my mate...
Turn it up!
Thought he was going to rah rah, maybe for after the world cup?
Ah get your hand off it Hoops.
How dare a player change their mind for their own benefit, haha
I don't remember this vitriol from journos with Cherry-Evans. Amirite?
As a rooster 🐔...I guess Angus is good so Angus needs to sign a contract for us next season
I think its more a question of if he wants to more than he NEEDS to from his perspective, I mean its his choice I am sure he does, but its not like any other club wouldn't want him, they all would so he is spoilt for choice.
David Fifita can speak Greek?
Lol I was wondering that too, isn't he aboriginal?
Sometimes when people have brains, they learn an extra language or two
You guys wouldn’t know
@@billywonka4160why the insult? Wasn't haven't a go at the bloke, was a serious question
@@DjDmt Hes Tongan and Aboriginal but hey maybe he knows enough greek to have a basic conversation?
@@DjDmt Apologies mate was just some banter as I thought you and the OP were having some banter as well
Listening to this show is like reading a trashy newspaper like the Telegraph.No verified sources just s bunch of clowns rabbiting on about nothing.
Diamond Des.
Even what Fifita was going to get paid still couldn’t afford a house in the eastern suburbs of Sydney. Nothing else to it.
🤣🤣👍
Fifita is just a bigger unproven version of Latrell.
Fafita's glory-story ended when that Titan player didnt pass him the try-winning pass in that semi-final a few years back.
He found out he’d have to wait until 5 years after retiring to get his money from nick
That’s good roosters need buy new outside backs an new half since keary is going.
Poor nicky! Get rekt! 😂
Won't be surprised if they used his cousin (Jojo Fifita) as leverage.
Jojo is David's second cousin. Not brother
Good, now lock up Angus Crighton.
Bullshit. Fafita told them he doesn’t want to go. Nick didn’t jump the gun. Rejected
They've changed so many coaches but their overall leadership is still the same over the last 5yr isn't it? Owners & the team manager should go. They've almost sunk another gc team
Course he can clubs can get rid of players at there peril why can't players do the same they are a business as well
He was just testing the player market n every player is aloud to. What about Cherry Evans to titans years ago n he even bought a house on the coast didn't he? I feel sorry for the titans. It all starts at the top they say. Is meninga still "leading" the titans???
Go the Panthers 😂
Roosters are getting turned down by players left and right. I thought they were a power club and premiership contenders?
What players are they?
Its a blue by Fafita, Roosters look after there players post career.
This idiots going on about how it's a slap on face on Chooks and blaming Fifita for not taking the deal seriously. It's a management decision by the Rooster having seeing the Character and type of player Fifita is would not natural fall in the Roosters system and pull the rag under him before it become a disaster. Stick to Writing Paper yall not fit for panel discussion.
NRL 360 lads are doing themselves disservice by speculating over Fifita's negotiation. Let the man decide for himself which club he wants to join. Simple!
Hes following pangai junior to boxing 💥
Both have the brains for boxing 😂😂
Did you see his last fight, back to footy 💯
I wonder if Fafita is the person accused of Rape and that’s why it all got pulled.
Hang on hoops, when have Penrith "overpowered" for a signing. What planet do you live in
Who cares. As a Roosters supporter, this is the best news l heard. He's got talent to burn, but no desire to achieve greatness. We need backs not forwards
Tedesco did the same thing to the Raiders 8 days AFTER he signed with the club. Then the first game up against them he sprinted down the field at kick-off taking out Campese's legs when he went for the catch severely injuring him. Now that's what a call a real dog act.
This is such a nothing g burger story.
why are they calling it poor decision so what cry me a river leave fifita alone stuff your negative reaction for all I care.
Who cares..let him do what he wants.... You can't tell me people haven't reneged on deals before... Big whoop! Roosters will bounce back and sign someone else... Everything happens for a reason.... Resign angus
Who’s going to sign with when the titans lose again?
Dave was gonna do this, Dave was gonna do that. Did any of these "journos" actually talk to Dave? No.
Does any of nrl 360 panel realise how pathetic they sound with their take……simply because it’s uncle nick
The carry on by these clowns, especially Captain Potato Head & Bulldog Ritchie, was quite laughable.
if I am criton and tupouniua I am FILTHY . chooks binned two players for a bloke who ran 3 clubs around the bush only to piss everyone off and settle where he already is ....guy has done himself an image he wont soon recover from.
People on here a comical, roosters don’t need him. It worth the 825 when they have Crichton. Yes nick pulled the deal because he’s not waiting on someone who wasn’t committed . David’s manager as all managers these days try to increase their wage and creating drama from nothing. Roosters wouldn’t have been investigated for third party, value etc they have a very competent cfo that knows their job unlike other clubs.
Replace the roosters with a real team with a real salary cap like the bears
