Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Jersey sales explode minus the Brydens logo.

And we use a better manufacturer than Steedan....

I seriously think our jerseys aren't helping our performance on the field. It reminds me of a Seinfeld episode

They were ahead, needed to win by a certain margin to make the finals. Had a penalty advantage so he took the shot because if he missed they'd get the pen but he nailed it. They won the game but didn't make the finals as a result.

yeah thx, that was the story - old age has made it a bit blurry for me
lol

I thought it was because they needed to score a try for a bonus point.

Well we should have some answers Monday about players as next lot return to training. Stains, Jake Simpkins,

They would be allow to train if no contract I believe but could be wrong

Staines is gone. His player profile has been removed

Noticed they put Lachlan Galvin as a backrower also.

Only two wingers listed

The only explanation for Staines is that he must still be struggling with that bowel injury. He’s too good of a player not to have a contract at this time of year. It’s not like he’s Brandon Wakeham.

 

[Flippedy]

Last. They do factor in other things besides the cattle as well. 🙂

Appointing Sheens was the like asking Harold Holt to govern the country effectively after his swim.

The jury is out on Benji. I wish him every success and there are some positive reports with how he gets on with the players. I am still to be convinced.

Funniest thing I’ve heard in a while 🤣 and sadly true!

Hard ro predict flanno or hasler would do any better.

Is the root cause of our issues coaching?

Be interesting to see how Flanno goes with the rabble at St George.

Just speculation on my part but maybe that injury he sustained has caused some long term damage that no one is talking about. I honestly can’t think of any other reason why we wouldn’t have re-signed him and the silence about his future is quite weird.

 

[Todd Packer]

Staines was listed as released on one of the websites listing gains and losses.

Theres no other logical reason.

 

[KingRobbie]

I reckon he’s staying and we’re just waiting to release a player to fit him in the 30.

Otherwise I’d think another club would’ve snapped him up by now.

Don’t know how it works with his contract/pay + training in the meantime though.

Yeah sorry I missed seeing your post above that alluded to this before posting my ‘speculation’. It’s a damn shame if we’re right about it as I believed he had a great future ahead of him as a player. If we’re wrong about it and we’ve just stupidly released him so another team snaps him up, then shame on us. Preferring Kepaoa and Nofo over Staines would just be another blunder in a long line of blunders from our club.

Anyone on here know the guy so we could get some answers and end all the speculation.

Would be nice to get some sort of clarification about his injury and future prospects.

Hard to believe he isn't getting offers from somewhere unless, as it has been alluded to, that there have been complications that are preventing him from training and playing.

You would think that the media or the club would have released some sort of update on him, it's not like he is a complete unknown.

Personally I have been thinking along the lines of what @KingRobbie has mentioned above and the club is saying nothing hoping to keep him under the radar until we are in a position to offer him something.

They took him off the website though. For whatever reason, he’s gone.

And none of them are great, very troublesome situation in the outside backs.

Might just be cause he’s no longer officially in the 30.

I just have a suspicion that he’ll be straight into the 30 once we free up a spot.

Don’t understand why he wouldn’t be at another club otherwise.

Should get a better idea if he shows up or doesn’t show up for training next week.

Only the top 30 are currently listed.
