I love my shuster.

Hartigan was an early convert too, but somehow we missed him.

Manly have a connection with the blacktown club.

Which bizarre when you think about the difference between the suburbs.

Has backfired for them culturally this season but have got a few decent pick ups out black town way.

Also Liverpool shu came from Westfields

Bit rich from Gildart. Been there five seconds, had three runs for SFA in 20 minutes and thinks he's a rockstar now. Stay there ya muppet, good luck padding out reggies at Easts next year when everyone is back on deck there.

Yeah, troubles out Manly way, he’s signed for a little while yet, but I understand he’s under siege.

When that kid is on jeez he’s on.

Sheens has been an unmitigated disaster by any account
Sacked the coach without a plan,humiliated the brand with a spurned approach to his sole coaching contender(after sharing all our secrets) ,lost 2 of our biggest forwards mid season then 2 of our most experienced backs "on loan"...got dictated to by Douhi on jersey number rather than make him earn it ..then worst of all appointed a totally unqualified and inexperienced coach with serious question marks about his abilities to look after the next 5 years..FIVE years !!
Hired nobody..& may lose one of Madges best hires
and almost certainly consolidated our first spoon
..all in 12 months!!
His job,just like Bellamy at Storm who faces smiiliar issues about motivating departing players,is to get all these players playing to their potential rather than run the white flag up on 2022I
Hes not working for Gus is he?
A disaster
Little wonder he got fired from his last 3 gigs

You are delusional. Sacked a coach: Yes, a coach who had lost the dressing sheds and we were going nowhere.

Humiliated the brand and sharing our secrets: I have no idea what you are talking about.

Lost our two biggest forwards: I guess you mean LL and Maca. LL obviously did not want to play for us as he dogged it in his last game. He very much needed releasing. Good riddance. As for Mc, in and out of first grade and no one on this forum thought he should be a regular in our first team.

Experienced backs on loan: This forum has been imploring staff to get rid of Gildart for months now and next to Brooks, Noffo has been kicked from pillar to post on this forum as the worst winger we have ever had, even though he holds the clubs try scoring record.

Losing Madges best hires: Papalli and his manager have stated (catch up) that Paps will be honouring his contract.

Hired nobody: That we know of. It's a long time between now and pre-season.

Inexperienced coach: Yes, but he will have one of the best coaches ever to guide him for the next two years. After that we will all be able to judge.

The rest of your diatribe is just gobblygook that no sane person could understand.

Enjoy watching all our good juniors coming through.

He's basically having a sook because he wants some Signing news.

A lot of babies throwing toys out of cot happening.
 
People have to realise that Lee is just chairman of a BOARD. How the rest of them escape accountability is beyond me. Lee tips in a tonne of his personal money, that's enough for me to have his back. Cant say the same for the rest of the cancerous mob.

They are the only common element left that has precided over the last decade ....

We have a fkn musician for god sake. What value does he offer besides give a reason for disrespect that we see from the players? It's a joke compared to other boards.

If that's a "musician" I'm an astronaut.
 
Besides API and Papi we still need min 3 top players to help us go forward , you can’t expect young guys to turn into champions straight away , Pole and other will need to be bred into the team each week , don’t crush them , get some strong help for 2 years
Klemmer / etc type players late 28 or so years old been around top grade last 5 / 7 years

Think it's a position issue. Think he's too large for 6.

Obviously unfit this year too

Yes, he’s been a bit slothful compared to years past.

He might have that Latrell metabolism issue where a single junior burger takes 16 hours to work off.

Then the stabbings and gay strikes etc, Des in decline, the flogging by the sharks, it can’t be a happy club.

My connection with Blacktown is a mates mum was a cleaner at the workers. Good kind of a person too.

I think we need at least 2 ferocious and seasoned forwards.

Mitchell Moses.

1 proper Utility.

2 backs, one marquee. Origin standard.

Still have Stefano to come back. In his prime, he was killing it.

I wonder if Alex will ever play again?

So at least 6 fresh cattle, but quality over quantity if we can manage it.

We need unless your blind freddy 2 more forwards and big guys the type where the opposition bounce off them not the other way around
We also need 2 Quality centers who are solid and elusive I think we have a number of wingers Nofo,Kenny, our best
So with these 4 recruits plus Api Papalii, and Steph and Blore and Twal
back fit to go with Jacko and Douehi Musgrove Pole Daino,Brooks,
That would be a good 17

If u wanna do personal attacks,the maybe you shld have gone to high school Col and wld have attained some sanity yrself..or some much need smarts rather than consign alternative viewpoints to goobledygook..whatever that is
Simply stating the facts.
Geez..some of u adoring fanboys need to wake up to reality that there may be a contrary viewpoint that is based on reality rather than hope and desire,
Wld like signing news like everybody..but some of us are looking for better operational process and accountability than what Sheens has provided
If those multi syllable words are too big for you,or the concept of accountabilty too lofty...just join the dots and color whats in between
Sheens so far has been rubbish..its that simple
Like us all..I hope things improve

Re madge yes he is a good guy yes things have got worse since he left
Yes our only 3 recruits in last year Papalii Api , Naden happened under his watch but 9th,11th, 13th and 15th ( when he left) says it all good guy or not that's a 4 year fail .
One other thing I thought the "tales from tiger town " was a failed attempt at self promotion . No other club aired their dirty laundry like that.
My big concern with the Sheens regime is the zero recruitment so far and I'm not convinced it's because tim is biding his time moreover its to do with the view of the market that tiger town is an undesirable location
