Welsby being offered big bucks would be bizarre, he hasn't earnt it yet.

The dogs have Laundy money, we have Hagipentalis' money. What's the difference? Two super rich guys

I’m not completely sure but I don’t think a club sponsor (eg; Laundy or Lee H) can provide any TPA’s.
The NRL wouldn’t allow Harry T to give any TPA’s as he was too close to the Tigers.
 
Moses and his Manager meet with the Tigers hierarchy yesterday for 2 hours. Our best and final offer was tabled, they are going away to consider, we were told to expect a decision next week. It's still a 3-way battle...the rumor that Souffs made a late pitch for MM is not true.

Why is this BT, what's the rule there?
I believe clubs can't provide the TPA, so that's probably what your referring to.
 
We need to make sure we get Moses if we’re really committed to being a top 8 team - we need a halfback more than anything and you can argue Moses will be the best 7 that’s deemed gettable in the whole competition right now

We can’t afford to miss out on him, especially to let him go to the bulldogs too

Dogs fans have become the most unearnt arrogant in the comp. They won 3 more games then us who literally had 18 of our top 30 on the sidelines towards the end of the year yet somehow think they had a great year and are acting like Panthers fans.

Api is easily better than Mahoney, that’s not even a contest. Hell JMK was better than Mahoney this year. Kikau had a great end of 2022 season, however prior to this has been a massive spud with as many bone headed plays as good plays. At the panthers they could cover for his mistakes, he won’t get that at the Dogs. Papalli reportedly cost us $200k less. I have no doubt if you asked fans of other who they’d prefer the majorly would take Ice.

A bloke who ended up coming off the bench for Newtown is better than Klemmer? 😂 Seriously get off the paint thinners. Maybe Pele will reach the great heights that Mavoni Taifua did. Remember this time last year when you were all saying you got one over us by signing him haha.

Burton has become insanely over rated. The bloke has a massive boot and an ok running game. He doesn’t set up his backs and has shown no organizational skills. He still hasn’t proven anything as a 5/8, the bloke is still a centre IMO. If the dogs really pay $900k for him then I would piss myself laughing at them. He’s basically Jack Wighton from Wish.

Hi Kennell, I know this post will make its way to you. I don’t wish you any luck and I hope you crash and burn in 2023 😘

Yeah they are ridiculous.
They got hyped up for a slow reindeer named Corey Allen. They get hyped up for Burton who is just a centre who can bomb (dogs fans love bombs in general) they thought Duffy was the next Slater and that Flanagan would be the next George Williams. That TPJ wouldnt be lazy all of a sudden and that Lichaa was better than Cook.

Why is everyone so negative on the dogs?

They’ve suffered like we have for a long period - have shown us an example of how to get better - even though we’re not doing it as well at the moment.

Good luck to them.

We should stop being jealous and try and emulate…. Or just try and poach Gus after he has some success their.

Let the pile on begin.

I think all the old school clubs should stick together. We should target fake plastic clubs like the titans and the (no region) Dolphins.

Timmy has offered the same MM deal, which isn't quite a million, to Jack Welsby. It comes with massive transfer and compensation payments but it's apparently way over what he's on at St Helens and he's very interested. The initial approach was pre world cup. The dogs were always front runners for MM pre grand final, Gus's first task when he got the job at the dogs was to get a half and he singled out MM. I think the Laundy money will land him.

This is interesting i didnt know. The one we should be lookin at is Johnny Lomax, he would start ahead of George Williams in the cup if he didnt get injured.

This isnt quite true, because Moses/manager met Eels earlier and it was a negative one. Eels are out.

me?
I am not Nasheed, just because we are both lebanese.
That is a weird connection to make, me and a dogs fan. Ive been here for a while.

Im just friends with the Moses family which I have literally proved.

Dolphins are legit. They've got decades of history on the Redcliffe peninsula and a really strong, grass roots culture in North Brisbane. They're fine.

Titans, and the gold coast in general on the other hand, is a graveyard.

I would rather he goes to the dogs so he can poison them

Both cities have their advantages and disadvantages I think. Canberra there is no traffic and a lot more bush and wildlife.

So much traffic everywhere in Sydney and so much road rage. Took me 1 hr to get from Leichhardt to Lane cove recently. Cbr is like 15 mins everywhere.

Eating out is expensive in Canberra and quality of food is no where near the standard of Shitney. Can’t find good Banh mi or Bankstown standard Pho or any good Lebanese food here in cbr. No Eljanah or Fat fish in Annandale. No Frangos.

If you’re looking for quiet then cbr but if you’re looking for liveliness then Sydney.

Everyone seems like they have their PhD here in canberra . A lot of people I work with and met in canberra are very very well educated which was a bit of a shock.
