I hate him. He lost me the day he was prancing around Wollongong in red speedos walking his dog while going through rape charges. Now I know that's not a crime, but any decent human going through a rape case wouldn't walk around the suburbs in just speedo's, it wasn't along the beach. Guy is a grub.

Why is it not a crime walking around Wollongong in red speedos? Unless he was on his way for a wax.

The fear is a team full of young elite players will get smashed most weeks, they won't cop that for long, because their development will stall. Theyll leave for a more successful side.
We have at least $2.5m to spend. Buy elite talent, everyone is off contract in the NRL nowadays.

I disagree with ur statement, while we have a decent pack and should we grab two decent young 1/2s , them getting to play with api and our pack next year will set them up for 2025 , but I also think we need two more experienced forwards , a lock and another prop , u started ur post with a team full young elite kids , bula is young but is playing well the only other kids would be the two half’s , just remember if ur good enough old enough, think back to players like brasher , teddy they were thrown in and they both played for aust
 
We have over $2m to spend next year. We were offering Moses $1.3m before we released Ofahengaue and now have Brooks off our books, probably closer to $3m. We can't aim for mid tier players, we HAVE to spend 90% of the Cap, you'd effectively be paying overs for mid tier players, we can't do that. You can pay overs for the elite. Fulton was appointed because he was a great "closer" so far.......He's delivered nothing.

Mate, if we don't buy 2-3 quality players for 2024, we have absolutely wasted our time buying Api in the first place. As if he'll stay for the 3rd year knowing he's going to run 15th at best.

There’s nothing out there mate, not much to have faith about. By the time anyone of note becomes available, our 2023 recruits will be sick of losing and ready for a change. Unless Fulton can work miracles it’s another few years of hurt at least.

Fulton has to answer to Pascoe and Lee. Its not on Fulton.

Yep that’s right , so we release players (Joe O) and lie ball others. Bright lot these leaders
 
At least they put up a fight, but I must be terribly one eyed.

One bomb by sharkys when every player was in front of the kicker, two of them interfered with Bula who dropped ball forward and wakeham picked it up, penalty given to sharks for tigers offside, they find touch score try.
And did anybody else think that last sharky try was not a try, or is it just my one sided view of the game.

I don't buy that. Every player in the Comp is off contract. Ofahengaue
Matterson
Maumalo
Weren't off contract but other Clubs took them early.

I think there is so much more to review than contentious calls. DS you are definitely one sided but loyal to a fault. And they did have a dip in the first half but that was it.
Our attacking options are literally non existent and can somebody please tell me why it always has to be a high kick on the 5th. Why not kick on the deck and hold defensively or a grubber kick for a repeat set.
As I’ve said before I’d love to go to a training session to see what and how they practice.
No depth in attack, reaction times slow, no real draw and pass. Every fundamental error in the book.
Now is that Tim or Benji or Robbie’s fault ?? Or are the players just too thick to get it.

The top two went to a top four club. Maumalo was and still is injured I think. Hasn’t been sighted.

Of course it happens but not much evidence it happens for us.

The Chairman and CEO went behind the Coach's back to appoint the Recruitment Guru, hoping he can make us semi competitive soon, before Bula,Da Silva and Pole leave us for a succesful side.

Do you think things would be rainbow and sunshine if they gave then prior notice?

Recruitment an issue and they done something about it I don't get this issue always being raised.

The one hynes scored I thought was a double movement. Ball carrying arm touched the ground he then reached out and placed over the line while still in motion I admit but if he didn’t promote he would of been short
I’m not sure on the rules in this area though

To me it was fine because motion took him over the line,if the arm was the only thing over the line it would have been a double movement imho
