He's slot straight in at 13. Just put a contract for him for 2026. He won't stay in Brisbane if he's playing less minutes.That’s a shame, he won’t be getting much game time there but I wouldn’t expect Madge to do us any favours anyway

Yeah me too. If he can’t be bothered playing for the rorters, then how the hell is he gunna wanna play for a team getting flogged most weeks? We lose a few games in a row and then down 20 in 20mins of the next, and he’d be under the goal posts picking daisies for his bracelet and necklace combo.Can't see Terrell May coming here, hope so but just can't see it. Ciraldo has a connection with the family and the Bulldogs have more to offer in terms of finals football, etc.
Oh no.He's coming .. signed .. sealed and will be delivered in another 48 hrs .. 🤣 🤣
Oh come on, you can't possibly not understand this, can you? The Roosters are finding it easy to offload May because other clubs want him. The Tigers can't gtet rid of Sullivan, Naden and Bateman because there is no interest in taking them, or at least not for anything like what their contracts are paying them. It's got nothing to do with the Roosters being "hard nosed", it's because they are shedding an in demand asset.Yet to see it at our club.
All we have managed is sacking 2 for turning up for training late. IMO we are clutching at straws there for any excuse possible
We have told other players they are free to leave, they dug their heels in and want to see out their lucrative contracts
Roosters told May he is free to leave, he is leaving. Thats how you piss players off your roster.
I ain’t believing the Richo hard nose approach at our club till I see those tough decisions from him.
To me, and I could be well off the mark, Richo is making decisions in Benjis name.
He hasn’t stamped his authority at the CEO of the club. He has a lot more experience than Benji, shouldn’t think twice about telling Benji who is boss.
We don’t want another spoon, we want strong leadership.
All Benji is delivering is smiles at training.
He is our favourite son and I love him to bits for what he did as a player but it’s time to get serious
?back to the drawing board for a 13 it seems. sigh.
If we re-sign him now we have no space for anyone else (ie May or Hetherington). I'm fairly sure he's been promised a top 30 contract and asked to sit tight until we get the roster spots.Can somebody explain to me why we haven't resigned Sione yet
His brothers are here for 3 more years nothing adds up.?
Lol yeah well I don’t think the May family are renowned for their intelligence so yes he might just come here after all. Who knows we could end up with all of them!Terrell May would have to have a brain the size of a cumquat to end up at Concord
There might be hope yet ...
Are some of you guys that addicted to your misery ? You’re not being realists . There’s literally zero reason logically to support this club with the recent history , if not optimism and hope .I honestly can't tell if their genuine or sarcastic.
Heck with our current performance, maybe they’re optimistic.
wouldn’t surprise me if we still sign him for 2026 but still doesn’t fix it in the short term.
Doggies have King, Curran, Hughes, Sutton and Amone. They have got Preston, Kikau and Toupouniua in the back row.Can't see Terrell May coming here, hope so but just can't see it. Ciraldo has a connection with the family and the Bulldogs have more to offer in terms of finals football, etc.
What a difference a year makes . Most of those guys were considered reserve graders a year ago .Doggies have King, Curran, Hughes, Sutton and Amone. They have got Preston, Kikau and Toupouniua in the back row.
Bailey, Mann and Salmon playing lock.
90% of that pack would be a walk up starter at WT as for Terrell, he is a carbon copy of Josh Curran.
What they go need is a damaging prop which is why they got Amone "wait and see" If I was Ciraldo, I would be pushing Kikau into that role sooner than later and spend the Addo-carr $$ on a fullback.
I just call it as I see it.Who knows if the guy can coach .
If Benji and it’s an if , he did coach 1/2 of 23 and all of 24 he has not done very well , just my opinion , Richo can’t say anything but I’m 100% behind Benji and he can’t sack him now as he will look as bad as the previous management , I would expect Richo to step in if we are on the bottom 3 , 1/2 way into 25 , I expect more after 3 spoons ,Who knows . We don’t even know if Benji is a bad coach . We don’t even really know how much Benji coached in 2023 . We know sweet FA . Yet somehow people on here have fully formed opinions based on these unknowns .
It’s crazy to me . Who knows if Benji is the shittest bloke ever ,can’t coach for shit , and is the demon of all things wests tigers and the Antichrist that will cause the tigers ultimate destruction . lol
But you know what we do know , if he wins we all win . So I do not understand the wrist cutting and death riding going on at the moment . It’s beyond crazy talk .
I’ll reserve my judgement until pre- season . Because the bloke who does have a clue . Who would piss Benji off in a heart beat , is the bloke running the club . And he hasn’t sung anything like that tune yet .
Yet you keep reading...Are some of you guys that addicted to your misery ? You’re not being realists . There’s literally zero reason logically to support this club with the recent history , if not optimism and hope .
Like I’ve said previously it’s masochistic . Or like the saying goes misery loves company. So you’re happy in your misery because everyone else is ?
All the concerns are there . Everyone has them . But Jesus Christ it’s November , and we just signed the current NSW 6 , who lead his team to a GF. It’s ok to be optimistic .
If you can’t see reason to change your perspective , then you should literally walk away and find something else . Because reading some of the comments on here is like a looking glass into depression . Find something positive in your life to replace the misery is my point . It’s unhealthy to have that type of attachment.
Yes that’s 11 players for 5 spots , plus there is others pushing for spotsDoggies have King, Curran, Hughes, Sutton and Amone. They have got Preston, Kikau and Toupouniua in the back row.
Bailey, Mann and Salmon playing lock.
90% of that pack would be a walk up starter at WT as for Terrell, he is a carbon copy of Josh Curran. If they got rid of say, Salmon and Sutton, "for Terrell" they would have a mobile, hardworking, big minute front row.
What they go need is a damaging prop which is why they got Amone "wait and see" If I was Ciraldo, I would be pushing Kikau into that role sooner than later and spend the Addo-carr $$ on a fullback.
One of the things I find myself repeating over and over is that this club puts way to much emphasis on the future, and virtually nothing on the present. And you wonder why they are on a treadmill.I just call it as I see it.
He put his hand up to do the job with the roster available.
I see others including Benji himself excusing his failures
Benji: "I'm not coaching for results I'm coaching for the future"
Others here: "He doesn't have the roster, he doesn't have leaders, half the squad is kids"
It's just buying more time it's all this club ever seems to do... While every other club is fighting for a premiership next year we're still looking to the future.... We rarely get that far though as its a results driven business and people (coaches) get the flick
Our good players take off elsewhere and who, can blame them... The cycle then repeats.
Give credit when it's due and if they prove us all wrong next year I'll be first saying we'll done...
Agreed . I’m just as much to blame . You’re rightYet you keep reading...
It's like people complaining about 360.....YOU also have a choice
Bird has to play 13. We’re idiots if it’s anyone elsewouldn’t surprise me if we still sign him for 2026 but still doesn’t fix it in the short term.
