Is the new Brown one in the the top 3?Not all gloom and doom- WT escaped being mentioned in some of the worst NRL recent contracts. I know we sure have some contenders but it does put our recruitment and retention success or otherwise in a form of perspective. NOT ALL BAD. 🙂

What do you think was the worst deal?www.zerotackle.com
They wouldn't have to do much to match the output of the other two, and us such good value. As I said let's see what the other two produce at their new clubs before making assumptions that it was our club/coach impacting their form and not just that they aren't up to the money they were on.
To your point Steve, if that person existed, we would currently have a perfect system. The NFL pours billions into their sport and they have ended up with a salary cap...
Benji trying to illicit a response from him, a final straw kind of thing.

It's the media they nominate who they like with no idea of the reality of it and think it's gospel, we would question it, but some suckers out there with not much knowledge of NRL could believe it.
Well if it’s proven they aren’t up to the money they were on, that’s still this clubs fault.
Part of the mentality of why we are a loser club
So you think the club should’ve kept players who weren’t 100% committed to changing things?
Honestly, I know absolutely nothing about A.F.L, but they have it all over the N.R.L in terms of their draft system and how it incorporates their junior development players and their senior squad. Next EBA the fans need to en masse tell the N.R.L we want it and tell Clint Newton the same. Give the players something in return, make it a condition the players must agree to on every N.R.L contract, which if not agreed to prohibits the contract being registered by the N.R.L. We need a draft system bad. If anyone challenges it like Terry Hill, argue it's not a restraint of trade, the player has the ability to ply their trade in lower grades as well as Europe, America and Canada through their leagues. No one is entitled to be an N.R.L player it is a privilege, a privilege the players through the support of their families spend years working hard toward, but a privilege not a right non the less.
Open to any idea that keeps the teams more equal from season to season it's so boring seeing the same teams dominate and the others underperform.
Iv thought abit about what would happen if Benji needs to be tapped on the shoulder, if I was in fantasy land and running the joint my way, I'd say Benji you've had a white hot crack but atm the younger guys just need abit of an older head. I'd ask Benji to move to assistant coach for 3 years to gain more experience and bring in a new head coach. Once the new head coach does their 3 years I'd be open to giving Benji another shot in first grade, with an extra 3 years under his belt, plus the first year as an assistant and 2 years as the first grade coach, if he's not ready by then, then he just hasn't got it.

Wentworthville up 10-6 at HT, let’s see if Matamua can lead us to a come from behind win.
And the draft is a month long lead up in the media with all the behind the scenes deals, then the actual draft lasts a week of non stop televised trades. Plus all the interest the combines create for the juniors. It would be a massive money maker for the N.R.L in say mid November to mid December, right in the middle of the off-season. They could do it anytime really I just use that as an excuse.
There must be a reason why the NRL won't touch it but no reason why they couldn't come up with a hybrid variation, good job for an NRL think tank.
