What are you talking about, it's the first consideration. Watch the Bulldogs shit-show play out, to show us again the decisions Tigers need to avoid making.

A team with Moses Mbye, Aaron Woods, Moses Suli, Andrew McCullough and Billy Burns have won double the amount of games than us. I don't want to hear about oUr roster anymore haha.. Griffin is a footy technician, our guy can't get even get his bench/selections right cmon...

I'm not against Madge going, never have been, but I would like to know who the replacement is going to be.

I don’t think people have realised how Hastings operates yet, he’s a tyre pumper. He pumps the tyres of team mates and coach to try and get the best out of them. He’s always been confident over confident and he is trying to spread that around like a culture if you will.
Having said that I don’t think he’ll be following around Madge for the rest of his career like a dog ala Benett and Boyd. Yes I’m sure he appreciates the opportunity but that came from the club in collaboration with Madge not solely due to Madge.
Yes if Madge goes I’m sure he’ll be disappointed I doubt very much he’ll down tools or request a release, he may even sign an extension who knows.

They've been terrible for us meter wise.
I understand bringing Uto back slowly...

The manly game will be Madge’s grand final
You forgot the current origin players like Ben Hunt, Tariq Sims, Jaydn Sua, former origin players like Jack Bird,
Josh Maguire, Jack DeBelin,
Up and comers like Lomax….
Seriously?
Most of their squad are rep players!!
Should have won 6 more games than us

And his coaching expertise should be considered why? From results he achieved where?

Did you watch Sharks the past 5 weeks? Scraped past Warriors and Titans, beat by Broncos, belted by Raiders and Roosters.
Sharks have only beaten 1 Top 8 side in 12 rounds and have faced Bottom 8 sides 8 times in that same period.
Sharks have a pretty sweet run in 2022 - the only current Top 8 side they face twice is Storm. I think they are in great danger of being shown up (again) when they are dabbling about the bottom of the Top 8 and come up against serious competition.
Exactly - who knows…
But you can’t deny they have developed a close relationship - very quickly…
Some personalities are drawn to each other, but if Madge has gone - Jacko won’t be short of other options… without the relationship with the coach to consider, he may well explore those options more so than if the coach was here… then he leaves - and takes the air out of everyone’s tires with him

Gotta start somewhere
With the next SuperCoach and all those signings they popped us on, to go with an almost top 8 roster they already had

I'll give you Ben Hunt and Sims,
Others haven't been selected for origin in years, most been out for a while/have had injuries: Jaydn Su'a, Jack Bird and sex pest DeBelin missed a whole year. It's Griffens first year mind you.. He got rid of a few players and has bought shrewdly too, this is my opinion anyway.

IMO Finucane is a bust; it's only going to get worse over 4 years. Moylan is a passenger. Hynes is a good footballer, yet to be seen if he can carry a team for a whole season.
McInnes tries hard but is not big enough or dynamic enough (has to be one or the other) to be a long-term lock.
Lots of injury concerns - e.g. lack of depth in the centres with Ramien down, having to play Connor Tracey and Talakai. They are still fielding Tolman, Fifita and Wade Graham who are all very well past their best.
They are comfortably a better side than the Tigers but I think they are a country mile of the top couple of sides, and I think their 2022 draw has flattered them. Like I said - 1 win from 4 attempts against Top 8 sides, plus two losses to Canberra inside 12 rounds.
I watch Sharks very closely every week because a mate of mine is a mad Sharks supporter. He is not overly optimistic that Sharks are going to the next level.
Sua played origin last year - and in the grand final.
