Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[batboy]

Haven’t you heard? The 5 forward hit ups and a bomb play style was thrown overboard.

It's called learning how to play the game
getting in the grind
earning the right to spread the ball
- Pay attention, You'll hear all the successful coaches talking about it.
Something we have NEVER bothered to learn I might add...

Spent an entire generation playing Benji Ball - Throw it to Benji and something will happen...
Benji's old now, That don't work... Hasn't worked for 10 years or more.

I see everyone banging on about how excited they are to see "Some good attacking footy"
News flash - It ain't 2005 no more...

Has anyone actually seen the ability and mobility of middle forwards / Forwards these days?
Playing hot potato with a magic man out the back waiting for one of them to be caught or lazy...
Ain't gonna get us far in 2023 and beyond.
- and we don't even got no magic man.

Who gets 5 years these days?

Any updates?

Was a typo he ment weeks.

 

[liltiger]

happy to see the back of Musgrove. his application defensively is atrocious. hoping we can upgrade with a Klemmer or a Leniu, or both.

I know right, how many tries this year were conceded through the middle and on the replay you see the scorer run right next to Musgrove, only for Musgrove to turn around and watch them scoot away.

 

[liltiger]

We need aggressive & hard running forwards yet people want to release Musgrove & keep Seyfarth & Twal unbelievable.

Seyfarth can go but noone can replace Twals defence, that guy is a tackling machine. Twal might not bend the line on a hit up, but his defence more than makes up for it, he's a beast.

 

[liltiger]

Ciraldo was only intent on seeing our salary cap and our juniors position….he was never interested in signing with us

Or using us as a bargaining tool to get the Dogs to increase their bid.

No it doesn't...
Every other club has that Twal type player - And they do both....

I used to see the same crap here week after week about Elijah Taylor.
It's wrong!!
Wrong back then - And it's wrong now...

Alex has added absolutely nothing to his game - In years...

It's almost a myth.
His front on defence is more than fine....
But he doesn't cover anywhere near enough ground....
Players almost have to run right into him to get tackled...

If he's got to get to them - It rarely happens.

It's an acquired talent to read posts from one of the forum's greats

Depends on how many sherbets you have had yourself,the more you have the more sense it makes

Seyfarth hasn't got it. His enthusiasm & eagerness mask all of his deficiencies.

His attitude is top notch but sadly he does not have much more and has not improved

Whats the go with the other forum? seeing a lot of "former" posters from here saying they've come across as there's too much gibberish on here.
It seems like its a here or there choice no in between, find that slightly odd, I only knew of its existence a couple of weeks ago.
Also whats the reason the pom fellow only post's there, and the smoking muppet attention seeker seems to now only post there, JFYI i see no mention of the 7-10 days which im unsure of if thats expired or not now.

I really liked the kid and he is only 23 but he hasn't seemed to have kicked on.

seems so.

 

[cqtiger]

Don't forget our track record for people coming thru to look at the COE isn't 100% effective....CC comes to mind.

Ciraldo was never coming here. I heard his dad has worked for the Bulldogs for years.

His Identity may have been exposed here....
"Found Out" Somewhat...

I had heard there was already a Ciraldo at the Dogs.
I didn’t know it was Cameron’s dad though
