More low 180cm forwards?

Meanwhile, I'm watching a qualifying final where the standard height of forwards is about 190cm, and one each at 198cm and 200cm.

Then we have supporters saying WT are too small and weak and need better physical preparation. There's only so much you can do with a small frame and lack of leverage in a contact sport.

Or they’ll remind you of some player who played in a good side with lots of other good players about 20 years ago that got the job done…

Not 100% at all. Doueihi is on very little.

He knocked back a minimum wage deal - minimum wage is 150-180 and you’re only allowed to have 4 players on that amount
- I’m guaranteeing he’s not one of them next year….

Either way, depends how you look at it - AD has been on 600 or so his entire time here…
The output for that amount of money has been good business - hopefully we square up some next year.

@TSP
I’ve been there before, I remember going out Friday arvo to Sydney to party and we sitting at the window of a pub in the cross and brief cases started walking past. I turned to my mate Ape and said it could be Monday? He said the bloke at the bar just told him we got a new PM.
When they went to fine me I told them I was an alcoholic and I was very sick that weekend. Never heard from them again. My mate Ape paid the fine.

Yeah I’m going with that one, thanks Buttmeister.

I have to find a friend called Ape first!

happy for brooksy...

tho am weary of the dogs sniping galvin. can never trust gus.

Not sure if them losing was good for us -- they'll be looking to upgrade their roster next year.

I'd say dogs and roosters are our biggest threats with galvin. maybe even parra if moses leaves

anyway i hate the dogs so much.

If the Tigers held down the opposition as much as the dogs get away with , our whole team would be in the bin

The Dogs have been getting away with plenty this year, let's hope it's our turn to be the refs pet next year

Hetherington all but signed. Waiting on release from broncos

Who is the player that is being swapped?
The Courier-Mail Mail said the Broncos were expecting a player in return?

Who could they possibly want?

Now that the poodles have finished their 2024 season, isn't there a 2nd signing to tiger's that Mason mentioned on a podcast?

Naden or Sully 🤞

They have cheated their way all year. Atkins gave nearly every 50/50 call their way today just like every ref has. Forward pass by Manly for their 2nd try was the only call they got all game, admittedly it was a big call.

They have been helped by the ref all year. I'm not jealous of them. Neither am I jealous for Brooksy doing well. I hate it when teams play grubby and cheat. Storm used to be like that and Bulldogs were like that this year with their constant holding down and off the ball rubbish from Mahoney

He’s a friendly gorilla, and a Tiger, he’s your friend to.

F the Bulldogs

They'll come good again next year, but after storm they're my most hated team. Can't stand kikau. One of the biggest grubs in the game and barely gets mentioned

I would assume it is likely Chris Faagatu ?

My guess Faagutu

 

[JB9918]

They can have Faagutu, only on 1 year deal for 25. May turn out to be a champion but untested & we need Hethrington now.

Only other one could possibly be Sullivan. Broncos have very poor halves depth in Jock Madden, Rogers who filled in was ordinary. Reynolds is riddled with injury so hopefully they take Bud off our hands.

Most neutrals hate the bulldogs and their fans especially. They are the worst at the ground, getting to and from games, and in their own neighbourhoods. They act like they are the best fans when their stadiums are empty when they are doing badly, and all of a sudden their bandwagons show up packing out the joint when they're doing well

Who is your source?

Not sure if that's where he got it from but @Demps posted something from Facebook or Twitter which said almost exactly what was posted.

I think out of the Broncos review, they will want to get in a couple of experienced forward hard-heads. Losing Flegler & Capewell particularly hurt this year. That’s why I think they should seriously look at Bateman not Faagutu.

We couldn’t get that lucky, could we ?
