Adam Doueihi #227

With matching Saints offer just to retain Doueihi?

Circumstances have proven that the clowns saying we needed to increase our offer to match the Dragons - were ignorant- reactive and wrong!

He didn't stay for less due to loyalty either way he now spins it - it is for a familiar security blanket and soft-hand that he would not have at the Dragons!

And being a live-at-home kidult from a wealthy family - with no partner or kids - he can financially afford the $100-150K offset compared to the commutes to Wollongong for training...

This is a win for sanity as the squad develops - and Adam will face increasing pressure to hold any of the stop-gap positions he currently fills!

The most significant takeaway for the Doueihi fans is that zero other NRL clubs showed any interest - even with Moses seeking offers on his behalf....

We could have kept him for even less - if Flanno hadn't stalked him.

Flanno also just got a further 2 years for achieving nothing and never getting his recruitment targets over the line - while the dopes here are calling for Benji's head when he started from a much lower base.

YES - 100%

And many here also wanted us to outbid Saints - let alone match their over-inflated offer!

It was a 2-horse race!

NIL other NRL teams wanted anything to doohey with Doueihi!

He's been a free-agent for 2026 since 1st November 2024 FFS!

Get that into your thick skulls!

Do you think we should drop him for the Sea Eagles game, or keep him at 7 and see how he goes ?

No - I wouldn't change a winning team.

And Latu will be best utilised off the bench against his forrmer teammates.

The following week is another matter - but that's in Adam's hands too

You may be only as good as your last game - but for observers recency bias is not your friend!

The broader sample size depicts reality!

I don't think even you wanted him to stay at 7 after the Parra debacle..... try to enhance your neuroplasticity

He was top 3 - best game I've seen from him.

BUT - just as many flaws and forgettable moments as the big ones that fell in his lap!

Serious question. If I was sitting next to you on a train while you type messages like this, would you like you are laughing? Angry? No emotion?

I agree with your post by the way but i am curious
