Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

He also has a superior roster to us yes.
We got most of the recruits Benji wanted too.

He’s had awhile to get those.

JL isn’t the player he was at the Panthers either. Somethings gone wrong there.

We had a mid season review and things have got worse. Most of the players are still available, yet few are playing at optimum, let alone the whole side.

I’d love to see Benji turn the corner, but it seems unlikely.

No doubt it works both ways.
A wise man once told me the sign of a very good team is when the worst player in the squad is just as motivated as the best player in the squad.
I think someone needs to explain this to Benji.
Pity it can't be bottled we could feed it to him over the off season, I would do anything for him to succeed.
 
Richo inherited zBenji and will give him 100 % support
..until he doesnt
He’s full Benji, the decision won’t be his ( or he won’t own up to it).

He’s a great storyteller, everyone feels better listening to him, but we at the end of the day, we ain’t winning many games.

No amount of spin is going to justify this car crash of a season so far ( gogomobil)

There's been too much disruption in the halves this season to judge, in fact the spine suffers with Bula out as well

As for recruits the roster needs more punch in the forwards Sam out this week watch how this affects the team.

JL is evolving into a big issue
He brings qualities which you'd expect from a 4 time premiership winner....but not the play-acting you'd ressonably expect particularly at his price tag
He must be frustrated too
I think he will give notice at season end and go to Perth

..
 
Not even that.

Us members aren’t very high on the list of priorities, especially at the moment.

If you disagree with them, they tend to send you to Coventry!

Knocking back sponsorship enquiries is a new low!

I’m going to send an email to another club and see how they go compared to us.
Isn't there a dedicated sponsorship area? I thought Skandalis was responsible for that?

Sorry
That's play making..and he's here next year regardless

Yes.

He’s not pulling his weight where it really counts. Something is amiss. If he goes, we can buy a couple of elite forwards. It won’t be the end of the world.

I know that’s pretty savage and I’ll be shot at here, but fair is fair, Benji and Richo shouldn’t bear the criticism alone.

I don’t know, they won’t return my email.

I’m going to run the test with another club and post the results up.

if they are slack too, we know it’s industry practice. So it’s less grumpiness at our ugly lot.
That link I gave you is specific for sponsorships even though it shows up.on here as just contact us. Otherwise Skandalis is on Linkedin. Maybe he answers direct
 
well i know the 1st player im resigning to put on that list on a 2 year deal is charlie staines
AD now i wouldnt go anywhere near but we will need a new backup half thats not now owned by moses

also benji doesnt seem to like kit so thats a wasted spot
Kit is not ready for first grade yet. Next yr he will fire. Benji may be protecting him with limited first grade exposure.
 
HBG certainly do want to own a successful football team… only problem is that it’s Western Suburbs Magpies and not WestsTigers.
The funny thing about this post that once again sought to re-ignite hatred of the Magpies and revive the Balmain v Magpies debate unprovoked, is that if you read Magpies supporter group posts on other social media platforms they are convinced of exactly the opposite, that HBG wants to revive Balmain.
The simple reason for that is that this poster is writing from a polarised Balmain point of view, just like the Magpies supporter groups.

Even more interesting is that the post was liked by one of the podcasters who protest their impartiality, once again representing his polarised view of the world by liking a divisive , unnecessary post.
