Our former stats man, Curtis Woodward, (now employed by the Bulldogs) reports via Twitter:

Daine Laurie headed to Belmore? Hearing the off-contract Wests Tigers fullback and his manager just met with Gus over a drink at The Locker Room Bar at Olympic Park.

Kaeo Weekes and Ethan Sanders/Joey ONeil should be our top priorities now that all the decent established halves/fullbacks are off the table. We're one of the only clubs that can give these guys a shot at first grade in their preferred positions and have the money to entise them.

Sanders seems obvious with their halves lined up for half a decade. I would hope we had that lined up from the start.

People criticising POM like they have better mail.

There is honestly no incentive or reason to post inside mail on here if you have it. None. Even if your mail is right 90% of the time, you will get scolded for the other 10% where the club has been mislead by media/management or something has changed. Better to keep it to yourself, not worth it.

Be appreciative for what is/can be given.

It is interesting that most complain about the leaking of information by the club, but then also complaints that there is no credible information being shared. You can't have it both ways. Either you want nothing getting out or you want information.

Agree 100% and if I could like it more then once I would.

It's turned into a passing contest for some but not all.

I appreciate all the updatse regardless if they don't come through.

Agree with some of your points however spreading a false rumor a bloke is about to get fired from his job is poor form.

Some of us appreciate your bits of info please don’t let the knuckleheads stop you from sharing what you hear.
As I have said before I will decide if I am stupid enough to believe everything I read and not hold it against anyone else.

@CCTW is spot on. Everyone on here needs to grow some gonads & appreciate information when it is delivered.

They are rumours ffs & it's up to the reader to accept them as that. Shit if we didn't have people like @THE_POM & @CCTW this would be a very boring place. POM would have got his info from a source who he believed delivered legitimate info ... he/she can't control the source.

So everyone get over it & get on with it!

I genuinely don't understand the mentality behind this, it's a thread for rumours. Even if the mail isn't right a lot of the time, we have still been given plenty of exclusives.

Imagine how boring this thread would be without any inside information during the off-season - even if what we're fed is wrong, at least it gives us something to speculate about. Also consider that things can change in an instant.

Some people are acting like they're paying the pom to receive accurate information..

Yeh, agree. I don’t expect THE_POM to be right 100% every time either. I accept that, with our internal politics and warring boards that decisions they make will provide more twists and turns than a cheap garden hose and our future will remain fluid.

Likewise 90% of people take it for what it is and appreciate the info. Unfortunately the 10% of wankers make up 100% of the insults and nonsense.

Hear, hear. I struggle to understand the seeming need of attacking the messenger, especially ones that engage in answering when here.

I do though hope that your good self, along with others that post their information in good faith rather than pissing competitions, will continue to do so.

Most people are smart enough to ignore the small handful of idiots that criticise people when rumours don't come to fruition. This is the rumours page, those with rumours should feel free to post. Why this small number of newly signed up users continue to attack someone like the Pom is beyond comprehension.

Pointing out someone's mail was right or wrong is fair enough, but it should be left at that and not include any attacks on the individual. Any posts that do so or that keep harrassing the same point should be deleted.

It's a rumours thread. If someone wants to start a 100% factual thread, for club certitified mail then go ahead, but that will be very very dry.

No he wasn't - he did the dirty and signed with Melbourne without telling anyone. Admittedly we were asleep at the wheel with our CEO on holidays and told JAC we would get back to him.

Seems to be a reoccurring thing with our CEO but he continues and so does the mediocrity
