Can we pump the brakes on the AD hate.... he’s a very good player who came off his 2nd ACL injury and arguably was one of our best players and only one who could create for us - yeah his defence was sketchy but he’s the type to be able to work on that with a full pre season 100% and he’ll come back with vengeance next season

Take it from someone coming off an ACL injury very recently, it’s incredibly difficult to return and make an impact straight away

Anyone to compare him to a Corey Allan is just taking it overboard

Mate I think most of the vitriol aimed at AD is because he has put a price tag of 900,000 a year on himself...why would anyone pay him that with him coming back from as you say his second ACL injury,demanding to play at 6 when he isnt really known as as 6...To me he is a centre and fullback...
If he has 2 fantastic seasons 23/24 then maybe people will lay off him,but he has to prove to all and sundry his asking price,,

Buzz literally makes stuff up

Said last week that the bulldogs would entice Moses with the club captaincy .

Has anybody ever signed or stayed with a club because of captaincy ?

all the luke Brooks rubbish from Buzz re Newcastle him and Read along with Hooper are pathetic. They made Brooks salary Udall last year so making up AD salary doesn't suprise

I think the emphasis on bolstering the pack is a good thing, as our forwards have been pushovers for many years now. If Bateman ends up coming I can’t see us being pushovers anymore with the likes of him, Klemmer, Papalii, Ofengaue & Blore in the pack.

i also think the acquisition of Koroisau alone will change this team for the better. My only real concern recruitment wise is the halves. Throwing all the eggs in the Brooks basket, with little back up yet again, doesn’t fill me with much confidence, but who knows he might actually be able to achieve something behind a pack that is not dominated every week.

Their information is decent.

I'm of the belief the AD asking price thing could be true... it just isn't confirmed.

I also read something his former manager leaked it to make him look greedy.

Does anyone honestly think that this click bait is anywhere close to the truth.

Sad thing is people here run with it and next thing its basically fact

Too much BS is allowed to perpetuate here these days...it wasnt always like this

It's no surprise though that a fair few of the people bashing AD and taking that asking price as gospel, are the exact same people that defend Luke Brooks and say that the media are lying about his supposed salary.

There's some massive hypocrites on this forum

so you were one who believed the bs rothfield was peddling about Brooks all year, but now the narrative around douhie can't be true ?
I have said all along the media around Brooks was bs and the douhie salary is likely bs too
