Who you got at 5 and 6 ?
I hope it’s not Topou… can’t catch a high ball….needs to be given a go in the centres

Wheres his junior nursery this time? He had that luxury last time.
It sits between ours, Parramatta and St George.
Don’t be surprised to see him recruit from the surrounding territories slowly building out their junior catchment area.

if that happens to us… tell him to sod off and do the same to him,,,
Still nothing like what he had at the Panthers.

Ffs Madge will have Brooks , Talau and most likely Jackson Hastings in the run on and I’d say Moses Mbye if he wasnt already a qld player… I’ve never been so disappointed in a coaching appointment since Jason Taylor was signed for the Tigers at the start of the dark times, of Pascoe Empire

Sorry my typo…re-hired him… extending his contract after the mess he had made up to that point. That’s actually worse.

Gus once said the ‘Roosters’ were one of the best development clubs. This was based on the fact they steal others best local juniors and then ‘develop’ them. Bulldogs will do the same.
The thing is you can both develop juniors and try to build a team for today. It’s just our bunch of incompetent clowns wanted to convince us otherwise which in my mind was always just an excuse to fail for another 2-3 years and stay in a job.
It is very easy to see how you could come to that conclusion,our board redefined the meaning of both incompetent and inept

Hopefully no more shit like there are 3 things that are certain in life, death, taxes and the coach being here next year.
Don't know about anyone else but I've had enough of that shit and hopefully won't ever see it here again or at least any time soon.

He didn’t do that either. Taylor was sacked three games in to his third season. He was never extended.

I don’t see how that quote above suggests that I wasn’t implying that Benji should have full control in who comes in/out of the team?
Richo shouldn’t have much say in the players we bring into the club as Benji has a specific plan on what style of football he wants this team playing and there may be a disconnection there.
However, the financial side and how that deal gets done should be handled by the experts aka Shane Richardson and co.
I've got a challenge for you: show me a single example from any point over the past decade where Tigers management have said they're not trying to put a good team on the park at the present time and are only focused on the future. I bet you can't.
The club has done a crap job of building competitive rosters - that much is patently obvious. But at no stage has this been because the current roster is being sacrificed for some idea of future pay off. We've hardly produced and juniors of any quality since Moses and Tedesco, for one thing.
Tim Sheens said as much in his first interview when he took over as coach.
We have also released several players who would still be in our top 13 over the last few years only to end up signing no one. It’s always freeing up space for next year, but next year never came.
Hi All,
the mail has stayed the same with Jerome
dogs are looking to offload RFM and JAC to sign him and a middle
the relationships with ciraldo / critta / burton / kikau / salmon are all too strong especially when a longer deal is at play
still more to play out / no offer has been formally made by the dogs

They will go for him but there slary cap would be a mess. Gould might be a talker but like Des Hasler, his cap management is rubbish.
We’ll get JAC

Wouldn’t that mean Dogs would have to offload both RFM and JAC to even lodge an offer as they can’t make an offer without having the $ in the cap first - cause if that’s the case then that gives us a massive advantage.

The Dogs top 30 is actually full, so I'd guess this would have to do more with roster space than cap management.
