All I’m saying is every time a player wants to leave someone is quick to tell you we have a better junior coming through. If the plan is to build the club around the May’s and Fainu’s why haven’t they been extended.

Perhaps because the club needs to know how much money they are spending on Laui and Bula first to know how much they can offer the others. If both stay its likely some of the others cant
 
By 2028, if things keep trending as they are now, it could be argued Jerome has done his job for us. He was a culture signing. Heck, could almost be argued already. He hasnt delivered to the pay packet but sometimes a team needs a circuit breaker and shock culture change. Jerome has helped that immensely. Also helped with bringing additional recruits in.

Based on what? We finished last then he got here 13th, currently top 4?

The coach has done more to get them to that position than Luai has… he has only played in 2 winning games this season…

I don’t want this to turn into crapping on Luai ..but I don’t see how people can talk him up and diminish the coach

That’s bullshit. Only recently has that actually been a concept . And it’s not people saying they’re better, you’re just hearing what you want to hear , it’s people saying they can step up and fill the void . Eventually making the role thier own .
It’s not replacement . It’s evolution . You’re completely misinterpreting what people are saying to reinforce your own bias’. And like people have said 20 times to you. Romey was leaving at the end of 29 anyway as he will be 33.

Invest it wisely? Sure, gotta be smart with your money.

But do it so your grandkids never have to work? Absolutely not! That would create really weak entitled humans that would never go through adversity.

With AI and robotics, our grandkids will either never have the need; or more likely the opportunity to earn a crust and get ahead.

People doing it for a lot less money …I know a few guys with families that have lived over there

Most people with money in south Africa live in gated communities . Any sports star in the Middle East would 💯. Where ever things are polticlsly
Fragile and they have a prospering sports economy the players will live in gated communities . I really don’t get the issue .
The real issue would be the scale
Of patrols and level security . Ie. the higher the safe base the tighter the security . It might be jarring if there’s political unrest for whatever reason and they have to up the security to say , rolling patrols from armed personal , from existing perimeter security for example .

Wtf I have no bias towards anything. We just suck at retaining players. Someone mentioned Brookes for if Bula leaves when he hasn’t even moved up to cup yet.

The NRL team in Moresby will have Australian security …likely AFP as well… they are a potential political target for terrorists in a country with a leaky land border with Indonesia …

I would say the sooner Romey signs or signals his intent to sign the better . Because , we now know things finite and can build towards 2028 . My guess it will be a changing of the guard , and hopefully Latu can step up , or has already pushed AD to 14 / lock , and Andruws is dominating KOE to move into the 19 permanently . Heyward has also spent 2027 dominating KOE, and his body is ready for 27 rounds of nrl . We already know 2028 is Apis final year. Hopefully Heyward and him are 50/50 at this point .
People forget teams are built in cycles of 3-5 years

Which is why there’s levels of escalation . Called safe base . If you know this than not trying to patronise .
Alpha being no security and obviously it gets more and more hectic as you move down the alphabet . Bravo is the status quo in Aus . It’s moved to Charlie a few times over the years though .

Ah, that terrible media must have forced Jerome to travel to PNG during the season when we are going well

No they didn't, but the haters in the media like bulldog Ritchie, weidler, Crawley, who have an agenda against the tigers, will turn it into situation where players aren't happy here regardless of how good we are going

I feel sorry for you that you've had to keep your seething agenda to yourself for these past few weeks.
I really do. I can only begin to imagine the internal frustrations that it caused.
But now you have the remotest of long bows to connect something that may or may not lead to something which may or may not being a bad thing for WT . . . . into another HBG bash.
Puke, and then yawn

😂😂😂😂

Timeline:
- Jarome was ready to remove the clauses
- HBG sack the board
- Jarome meets with HBG
- Benji announcing that Jarome wouldnt be removing the clauses
- Jarome ends up in PNG a few months later exploring moving to another club

If they didnt blow the place up, Luai and Bula would be signed and sealed until the end of 2029.

I know you lot are incapable of acknowledging they could do any wrong. Its your fatal flaw.
