We all change employers every now and then, I wish Woods stayed but not at the dollars he was asking for.
We will struggle next season, We saw it on Sat against a very poor sharks team.
Now I hope he is back in time for the Blues.
@ said:Ha, so he really does just rate himself very highly and thinks our team (the other players) sucks.. Ah, it really would be sweet to see us make the finals next year and for the Bulldogs to collapse at the bottom of the ladder..
@ said:What he is now saying…I have been told to pull my head in and go into damage control, but come October when my contract expires than I can start dumping on the Tigers again.
The man is a total fool
@ said:@ said:Just watched the NRL 360 segment. Poor Aaron. In five years time he is going to realise how badly he was advised in all this.
His brand is dead.
He is all over the shop. "I didnt really mean it when I said I was leaving to play semi-finals football because that, I have now realised, might be disrespectful of my current teammates" is basically what he said. Really? You are now only just realising this.
It beggars belief that this guy thinks he is qualified to comment on anything. I have never seen anyone more dimwitted regularly appear on TV.
I have never wished ill will on any footy player but gee I hope his time at the Dogs is a complete disaster.
Joe Wehbe is not doing a very good job of whispering in Aaron's head space of late that's for sure….

with the eels at 15 and the roosters at 14.
@ said:You have to ask, why isn't his manager, friends or family telling him what a goose he has made of himself. I have said it a million time, they were all free agents and were free to up and leave for what even reason and they did not have to justify it to anyone, that just the way it is in pro sport, but they did have a obligation to show some respect to their present employer, the fan base, sponsors and most importantly their team mates, and Woods has dumped on them,Moses has shown what a pratt he is by tanking it after not getting his own way and Teddy has been pretty good and kept his mouth shut.
Come 2018 all this drama will have blown away and the club will probably be in its best position since day one of the JV to really build some success, but one thing that will not be forgotten is the way Woods has handled himself over the past few months
@ said:I think underlying Wood's actions / performance in the media over this whole drama has been his need to be liked by everyone.
My personal opinion is that Woods, along with the other two wanted a miracle cure to everything, never really stopping to consider how much their own performances were playing a part in the club looking messy. Once they realised there was no quick miracle cure, even with the changes made by the club (including the coach) they wanted out. And here is where it all went to hell for Woods, he felt he needed to justify his actions to leave the club and still remain the good guy, but instead made a mess of the whole thing and ironically has made himself very unpopular.
**I also think his move to the dogs was motivated by his need to be near his good mates, again, ironically he doesn't look too happy to me.**
I'm no longer a fan of Woods, but i do feel sorry for him, his own psychology has played a huge part in his decisions and comments, and i don't think he's smart enough to see through all the rubbish and see the bigger picture.
oh well, just another chapter in being a supporter.
@ said:Hilarious how dogs fans at the Kennel are defending Woods LOL!!!
@ said:He just keeps digging himself in further and further…...
Outgoing captain Aaron Woods wants peace - not war - with Wests Tigers as he looks to lead the troubled joint venture outfit to the NRL finals for the first time since 2011.
>
While he admits there is no turning back after agreeing to a four-year deal with Canterbury from 2018, Woods is desperate to leave the Tigers on a high.
>
The popular local junior was booed when he led the Tigers onto Leichhardt Oval on Saturday night against Cronulla, ahead of his much-publicised move being confirmed the following day.
>
Things went from bad to worse for Woods when he tore his hamstring during the 22-16 loss. The injury all but rules him out of the State of Origin opener in Brisbane on May 31 and, in a worst-case scenario, he could also miss the second game in Sydney on June 21.
>
The star front-rower will be sidelined for up to eight weeks but he hopes to end his time at the club on a positive note.
>
"I don't want to make a war: Aaron Woods versus the Tigers," he said on Fox Sports's NRL 360.
>
"I love the club. It's my junior club and a club I love being a part of.
>
"It is what it is."
>
With endless focus on the future of the Tigers's so-called big four, Woods said had done enough talking this season without needing to explain his reason for leaving for the Bulldogs.
>
"I'm not going to go into it fully at the moment because I'm with the Wests Tigers until the end of the year," he said.
>
"I don't want to disrespect my teammates, I just want to enjoy my footy with Wests Tigers.
>
"When it does come to the Bulldogs time, that's when I'll talk about it.
>
**"I didn't say I wanted to go the Bulldogs to play semi-finals.** First and foremost when I spoke to (coach) Ivan (Cleary) I said I wanted to play semi-finals this year.
>
"That's the job I'm looking forward to doing. I want to get the Wests Tigers on the front foot and playing semi-finals, starting this year, because I've missed it the last five years."
>
The 26-year-old Origin and Test star said he would have stayed with the Tigers in an ideal world.
>
"There'a a lot of 'coulda, shoulda, woulda'," he said.
>
"It's what's happened at the club. So the club's moved on, I've moved on. I just want to rip in for the Tigers for the rest of the year and play the best footy I can."
Like Ink said, this man is nothing but a fool.

How's this for a theory?????
His manager tried to hold the club to ransom by negotiating deals to have all 4 of his players off contract at the same time. Said manager tells the club, "I'll give you all 4 players on a platter if you sign a certain coach I am representing." Manager thinks that he will get a cut out of inflated contracts for all 4 players PLUS a certain coach he is representing. Thinking his coach is a shoe in as he believes Ivan Cleary wouldnt have a bar of this place, our friend the manager is greedly rubbing his hands and calculating his cut.
Alas! Ivan Cleary arrives and immediately pulls a contract to concentrate on two other players. Just to be spiteful, our friend the manager talks his players into leaving the club to show the club that he is smarter than everyone else. Manager uses Jedi mind tricks on poor old thick Woodsy and has him believe that he will be better at another club. Poor old thick Woodsy didnt stand a chance. He had no choice but to leave and was left to his own devices to explain why. I dont think Woodsy even knows what his motivation is for leaving. All he knows is that our friend the manager told him to and thick Woodsy haplessly agreed.
