Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[DUCK]

The talent is there, but the club desperately needs some continuity.

Benji will have ups and downs as coach, particularly next year, but if they jump off him after 18 months after saying he had the backing for at least 3 years, then the 5 year plan just starts again...

Benji will go the distance if he can :
1. Increase the 2024 season wins to a minimum of 8 and make the finals from 2025.
2. Add some steel to the team and have the players playing with pride for the black, gold and white jersey and supporters.

Your issues. Please be specific. Otherwise - when you said Jackass I thought Joe Cocker.

All things being relatively equal, local juniors must be prioritised. Else the club abandons its roots.

Especially since there are few quality options right now in the player market.

Brisbane did well, Penrith, Newcastle, New Zealand -

Would the fans have approved signing Johnson or Reynolds.?

They took risks with their signings.

The fans took what they got. Did you pay any for Johnson or Reynolds? Did it hit your hip pocket. Or in another region - deep pocket. So to answer your question. No. You are righ. Hence the Magpie Magic.

I have little to no idea on who is available and have not watched a single non WT match for a month or more.

Hopefully the club is able to shift a couple more top 30 spots from our books for the coming year, similar to last. Whilst also signing some more consistent players and/or positional upgrades as replacements.

Hope doesn't pay.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

Makes a good movie though.

Brooks was here. He gone.

 

[Tom Shines]

Eddie Jones will be available for WT to sign after the world cup.

Is he a center or wing?

Noticed eels did good in SG ball and Flegg wonder how involved O'Neil was with that.

 

[Holman Barnes #1 Fan]

Didn't they all? You put that jersey on. Its magic. We tried. One day - we will have the right coach. Spare a thought for Ciraldo and Gould. They be doing it tough out there in Canterbury.

I would never feel sorry for the Dogs. Would much rather see them get the spoon than us!

Craig Field was released from prison last year.

Les Mara and John Elias might be available as well.

Absolute dribble on here now

Good find.....it seemed to slip through the cracks a couple of weeks ago. Interesting that Galvin was the only name Benji mentioned and said he could be the "next big thing".

Speaks so well Benji. That was an exciting remark he made about Galvin. Sounds like Lachlan & Latu could be special projects for him.

Must stand out.

I watched a couple of games at SG level last, which was early in the season, and he didn't standout so much there. Will still have to be careful with his development.

I'm even more confused by which position they choose for his pathway.
