What a load of Rubbish from Tedesco…contradicts himself by saying he would not have stayed had we offered $2m, the breason he is leaving is to play in a winning team where he will flourish as a player, then to "backflip' that by saying had the "whisperer" stayed he would have signed...what a load of rubbish....
Hello Teddesco, you are the best FB in the game and you became this while playing for the WT....how much higher do you want to go?..

This has the sniff of an article written to get on the front foot to prevent reputational damage. If that is the intent, it has failed miserably and Tedesco's reputation has been further sullied.

They will need a few sessions with the whisperer to get over the feedback they receive.
If it is true that they all would have signed had 'Wehbe' not been told to bugger off, I want to give whoever made that decision a big kiss.
We are better of without them and this has been shown in the last few days what makes them really tick.
I think the club has not been in a better position to be honest, I dont see all the doom and gloom that the media is talking. But then again, they are puppets for the managers, grubs and those wishing to push their barrow.
I look at it like this. Everyone, in media and outside rate Cleary as a coach, no doubt about that. So if the club is such a basket case, and there is no doubt, no doubt whatsoever that Cleary would have done his due diligence…..why did he sign on as coach?

Like I said earlier, the losers are not Tigers fans the losers are the players themselves.
Their reputations have taken a hit and whether they admit it or not that will hurt them.
Even Fittler and Johns were having a go at them this morning.
A grub manager, a horse whisperer and a complete lack of class.
Goodbye and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

What a load of tripe from this guy, he's really digging the knife in now im guessing to leverage a move away early. Guess what James I wish you would leave too and take your other boofhead mates with you. Ive not seen our supporter base so united on anything we're all sick of this crap, when you look on social media the majority of supporters are with the club on this one. We will see the other side and move on and this will all be a distant memory.

Fittler was highly critical of Woods' coffee shop meeting with Bulldogs players in the week before the game. I can't recall his exact words but highly unacceptable would probably cover it.
Paul Gallen had also offered the view the WTs would be in a better position to start with the salary cap available and good players on the market.

This place is about as grown up as a year 1 KINDY class
Grow Up,
if you dont like them, Dont watch them play.
If you do like them , then enjoy watching them at their new club, and enjoy the football,
You will probably see some football from Teddy that he could never get the chance to produce here simply of the players around him,
as well . enjoy watching whoever takes their place here. Theyre going, no matter how many dummies you spit out , so make the most of it

Agree.
Decision made we have to move on, lets hope we learn from the last few years and transform this place into the right business model that enables success.

I'm shocked that players who barely rate as bench players at this stage suddenly think they are worth a massive pay increase.

Ava is in talks with the Storm, but that he wants out is wrong.
Im a big fan of Ava, I think he is our most effective prop. His metres arent massive but he sets up flow in our sets almost entirely the opposite to how Woods stifles it. His metres are a reflection of his game time, which is unfortunately due to the rotation being Woods centric.
Im probably Ava's biggest fanboy on here, but Smoking Gun can tell you that even though he is our best traditional prop, there are plenty of others out there who could be more cost effective and more than capable of replicating his output. I would like to see him stay, but Cleary seems more than capable of identifying not only talent at a respectable pricetag, but also compliments the rest of the squad. So if he is let go, I have more than enough faith its because we had identified another prospect in replacement. Really hope the big unit stays though, Storm arent known for throwing big dollars out there for pigs, so we should be able to match them.

I also think Ava is our best prop. Heaps better than Woods.

"Wants to play for a successful club"
2 premierships since 1975
Missed the finals 7 times since 2005
Finished last and second last twice in last 7 years.

Sure they have had some good seasons that's because they make moves like they did getting Tedesco but there's a lot of dark times between the good as well there.
