Yeah, I tend to agree. Like you said does he have the motor along with the size, power and toughness to handle the middle. I was watching Ruben Cotter play at first receiver and did a fair job, so I wonder if it’s that hard or important a position for a highly skilled player like AD. You don’t...

Commentators saying that 500k is too much haven’t seen much off Jerome’s on field performances over the past 18 months……and he seems to be getting worse. If he starts playing good now, it will annoy me, why wait until now? And we need to look to the future and he’d just be holding us back.

Yeah cool, I was giving Jerome a 'fairdinkum'

Well his ego is obviously quite large. How can he be surprised considering his form, does he think that he's worth more than what the Tigers have in stall for his wage. And he decided to leave, it was him who through the first stone. Fairdinkum?

How do you know that's the reason to why he was tears?

Not sure if 5/8s should have this style of play. They need to be able to throw good balls, it's the bread and butter of a good 5/8. And they need to run hard and straight to attract players to them, maybe with a step if they have the whole package, not jump around like a flea.

I don't think he's the villain, he's a hero as far as I'm concerned to make this decision and leave. I'm positive the Tigers would of been very happy that he decided to leave, and most of the players as well. Even though you like a bloke off the field it's what goes down on the field that...

Yeah you're right about Bula, he should be more involved, hanging around the ruck and causing trouble, bouncing out of tackles, like many other fullbacks.

This was posted back in March, plenty of blow back and not much agreement as well.......funny how things change.

I'm a little surpised by all the angst, what where people expecting? No doubt we make some really dumb errors which put us on the back foot straight away. And we make some important errors throughout the game but I'm going to be positive, I thought there was an effort tonight at least...

Yeah, good onya Benji. If Luai was playing like he is expected to, he may have kept him but he's not and never has really, so it's see you later, Tigers first.

I find this hard to believe because who would want him? And people thought he was the saviour? It was clear Penrith didn't want him and there was a reason why. He may have changed the attitude a bit in the club and maybe helped bring a player or two to the club but his perfomances have been sub...

And the Kiwi thing with Benji

No you're right it's not the only thing but in general, I would say that players would prefer to go to clubs with better support systems Also, the Bulldogs do not pay overs for players, like we do, so our recruitment and retention decisions are made harder.

It is without doubt our number one issue. We do not recieve enough resources from HBG and other revenue streams. We are at the bottom compared to other clubs. We probably will never get out of it, unless we afforded some more resources. Or a mircale happens and we have five junior guns...

Injuries obviously didn't help however....... Maybe we went harder, eariler then other teams. We were riding an emotional high because of the big off season build up. Playing above our capicity because we certainly do not have a top four roster.

I haven't seen the numbers but it sounds right. The Tigers make around 13M which is the lowest in the comp but is that money given to them by benefactors? AI says Brisbane holds a virtual corporate monopoly in a one-team city, they generate almost four times the commercial and sponsorship...

Disagree Our spine? Bula is one of the worst fullbacks in the comp, APi is old, Luai is average Backrowers. KPP is just average compared other backrowers, go through the teams. And Fanui has plenty to prove, still. The top 5 in the comp, no way. Bottom 5 Middle is a our strength. Pole can be a...

I don't think we had a top eight roster, even fully fit, if you look at it objectively I don't think we did, top ten/eleven. However, it was the hunger, the desparation that was to get us there, and it seems we have fallen down in this area. Why? Who knows?
