No need for him.

No need for him.

Well as a centre you don’t think he would be a better fit than Olam?

Six of one, half a dozen the other. Tracey is a couple years younger, so my maybe Tracey on age. It’s fish and chip wrapper though.

Didn't we just establish he wants to play fullback?

Yes we did, but we can't bag the club if that was the case, so we ignore that and bag the club anyway

No surprises there.

…and in other news, water is still wet.

Why has no one at the club gotten a clue and thought to make Dearden an offer. A much more realistic option.

I don't see him beingal a more realistic option at all. You don't get a QLD kid to Sydney. Also, your money goes a lot further in Nth Qld then it does in Sydney.

Besides, he is not the type of half we need. He has very little playmaking ability. We lack points, the last thing we need is a runner, no matter how wholehearted he is. We need players that can create space for others.

So every time you negotiate with someone let the fans know you didn’t get them . What if you’re negotiating with hundreds of people a year at various levels ? And you miss a high percentage , because there’s 16 other teams .
Your logic is beyond flawed . I’m not sure if you actually believe it , or are just refusing to accept that your initial thought was misguided , and it’s face saving time .
Transparent negotiations in a system geared towards skullduggery, would be a death sentence , not to mention a betrayal of trust for the person you’re negotiating with .

Realistically mate we talk to a handful of marquee players each off-season. I don’t think it’s as complicated as you make out.

If he stays with the Cowboys, sure. If he goes to the Dragons, questions should be asked.

That line is starting to get tiresome…the issues are always with the higher ups…doesn’t matter whose coach

What's the word bra?

Saw Brandy trying to stay staunch, saying he's contracted for 24 and he'll be a Panther in 24.

You don’t say.
