I very much doubt that he would think. Pretty sure he’d know either way. It’s been a formality for weeks now.

You're presuming that Richo has better information than forum members.
What would make you think that?

Hmm 🤔

No fan wouldn’t want an established coach at the helm.
Having said that, being our greatest son, Benji has the hearts of the fanbase, so if we had a choice to see growth and success under anyone, it would be him.
We are all gunning for you Benji!

You need to pace yourself for New Years @Todd Packer

 

[Flippedy]

I think they are out …. Just signed Volkman

Didn’t think they were ever in.

The most entertaining posts have been the Gould disciples who've bought into the Gould the recruitment guru/ genius mantra and peed themselves when he posted a photo a mystery dinner at a restaurant.
The recruitment genius who's signed every piece of recycled garbage from the country's junkyards plus one weak gutted dog. The Svengali who could convince Luai to backflip just with the offer of a plate of honey chicken.

I have very little expectation for 2024. However if Luai were to come early, that would change.

He knew what he was doing with that pic

Then there's the kiddies on here that think it's like kindergarten when you want to hang around with your best friends at little lunch. The Bulldogs have more of his friends than us so surely he wants to play there.
It's comedy gold.

Was not a fan of the Sheens/ Marshall appointments.
Am; however, now warming to it a little more with possible recruitment/ change in board.
Ingredients are in the bowl but proof is in the pudding. Willing to give him this year to see what happens. Would be very happy to see him and the club be more successful.

Unfortunately a new board won’t make tackles or score tries.
It’s up to Benji to try and extract the most from what he’s got, especially in the halves and other backs. Then it’s over to the players, as it always is.
I just hope they are really angry about the last 2 seasons and show some real starch and desire.
It really hasn’t been evident for a long time. As I heard Richo say last night, the big thing about footy is emotion, you just gotta have it .
My fingers are crossed in anticipation of some significant improvement in 24.

Hair of the dog this morning. Go hard son.

 

[Merlot]

it all means nought until he signs

 

[Flippedy]

I hope he signs anywhere but soon. Forum goes loopy when these things go too long.

That ship has already sailed!

My mantra for 24 and beyond if it goes arse up is that you don’t scold a toddler for asking for the car keys and then writing the car off as he’s pulling out of the driveway.

I'm willing to give Benji all of 2024 to prove himself (give the juniors good game time and don't finish last). By 2025, with hopefully a few quality signings we can finish near or in the 8

Richo is Santa Claus. He knows when you're sleeping, he knows when you're awake!

Lots of players also like to play the fans along... Gee ups, telling them what they wanna hear even when it's BS

 

[NT_Tiger]

Curtis Rona anyone?

But benji isn't a toddler. A better comparison would be asking a 38 year old that's never driven to drive a car.
They know the risks they are taking.

When you see your self as a professional athlete.
Do you really need to join your best mates so you’re motivated to do your job?

Not at all,

But environment and friends on the team certainly helps.
