Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

What is all this death riding ? Pages and pages of diatribes of the same negativity black holes , who were by and large pretty much non existent most of this season / shouted off the forum . Is it going to be the same 5 or 6 dudes constantly reposting the same shit over and over in a feedback loop of shit , until the trials in February ?
Go get a life man …. Seriously ! The footy is over . The team went alright , about as expected . Certain players will be pushed down the pecking order like Toa , Seyfarth and co , and the team is clicking . Next year will be a real litmus to where the club is at. Until then , go get yourselves to the beach , go for a walk , check out the waterfalls all around Sydney up and down the coast , go to the many festivals going on , maybe watch some cricket ( I won’t - not my jam ) , and just live up the summer . Get yourselves heads clear of this joint . Especially right now . Misery likes company , and there’s some seriously miserable people here looking for a companion to wallow in shit with .
I haven’t read a single post from the usual suspects which isn’t. Repost of someone else’s misery , but rephrased . It’s almost like they’re copy and pasting to ChatGPT and saying “rephrase in another way” .

The ignore button brings bliss.

Would not call it death riding, people are just giving their thoughts on our sides chances next year. Some are positive, some are in the middle and some don’t see a top eight finish. Iam in the last group, yes I did see some real improvement this season, but I think we lack another hard man up front and we lack a game breaker. It’s all crystal ball stuff now, so we are all guessing.

Issue is teams can give players job's off the field within the current rules.

And those salaries could be anything.

Hence Roosters and Broncos have the most funds to do this. They aren't magically getting players to play for less under the cap, they are handing out high paying "jobs" to keep and bring in players.

Your 100% correct. For example the Roosters hooker is a full time academy coach at the Roosters outside of her playing role. The value of that role is decided by the Roosters so it could be any amount really. They have multiple players doing these roles and couple of them are full time ambassadors for the chooks. Clubs who have deep pockets can generate these particular roles. I think the Dogs will improve their roster as they have plenty of coin. I also think the Warriors will attract a few kiwis to go back home but unless our new coach can work miracles or our club wins powerball I can’t see our Nrlw team improving. I hope I am wrong.

I think Dragons are really building something.
2 X Couchman, Egan, Stewart, Halangahu are all going to have very good careers and is the making of a very strong pack in the future. Theres a few more highly regarded young forwards following them but it remains to be seen if they kick on should they reach first grade.

Who?

I mean sure, I have heard of Egan and Couchman... But meh.

It's the Eels that I suspect will build stronger. Though who knows...

I like Dragons young forwards, they could very well be the best crop of junior forwards coming through but Flanno is a shit coach IMO

2016 was a fluke

Probably an unpopular opinion. But I'd take Daine Laurie back on low wages, apparently doesn't have a contract for next year. He's an ideal 14/Cup backup. He'd be one hell of an ungrade on Heath Mason

This feels like a double whammy of overrating Laurie and underrating Mason. 6 years between and 75 first grade games between em dude.

I think the wool has been pulled back on Flanno.

James Maloney "I learned nothing from Flanagan". Which really shocked me, as here is someone who won a premiership with him. Heck, till I heard that I honestly thought he would be a good coach.

Flanno was kicked from the Dogs and Dragons because he is a bit of an asshole. He is back in the red/white because they are desperate.

Laurie was very good for us in his first year, and generally good until Bula leapfrogged him.

I don't see Mason making it to 75 first grade games. Laurie is a big upgrade on Mason, and I'm not really a fan of Laurie after the Panthers fangirling antics when he was here.

I disagree. Just as we seemed to turn a corner vs Bulldogs late in the season. We lose 3 in a row including two bad losses vs cowboys and titans. Plenty of scoreless halves, choking big leads, massive losing streaks, shooting ourselves in the foot, still somehow can't win 3 in a row. We still don't have a consistent regular halfback in the NRL. AD has had a breakout season and is in a contract year. He will be good for us again but we can't rely on him solely. Luai can never step up whether he is at 6 or 7. Latu is still very green and has a lot of improvement but needs an experienced 7 to learn from. I think we finish bottom 4

Many WT fans find an excuse when we win against nearly anyone, like "But the opposition did not have.....so our win does not really count?? ". But for some reason, they never offer the same excuse for the WT??
Are they the WT fans, or ..?🤔
