Iam sure the Dogs would have put some special clauses in his contract. Also coming down hard on him early might be the way to go rather than the softly softly approach. Be interesting to see where he is in 12 months time
I got it wrong about the clubs decision to offload Suli - and happy to admit it.
However the impression I had of him was based on the club media when he was signed - level headed kid with good people around him etc
Either things went very bad quickly after he was signed, or it was a riduclous decision to begin with. There was a story at the time that suggested that some of the senior players in the squad were none to happy about the deal.
Still think he could be anything, but sounds like he is his own worst enemy.

Magnesium Happy, it's great for combating cramps. I use an oil spray that I picked up from Alstonville on my calf muscles regularly- stops em dead in their tracks! FYI it's called Byron Bay Healthy Salt Co Pure Magnesium Oil Spray. I'm sure you can pick it up at any health store.

Coaches are supposed to do exactly that. If he's not going to listen to Ivan Cleary when taken aside one on one, then either Cleary's a hopeless coach or this kid's just not teachable. May not be a lot of purpose bringing in a counsellor to repeat what the coach already told them.

Leaches = New South Welshmen
Magnesium actually makes them worse Spud for some reason
Diet Lime juice mixed in small amounts with water helps a bit , unfortunately living where we do doesn't help very much , high humidity is probably the biggest problem
That issue might change very shortly , but not for the right reasons 😢

I don't think you can blame the salary. There are plenty of young guys on good NRL contracts who work bloody hard, and plenty of total dumbarses bludging away on next to nothing. Personally I strongly suspect lazy rich people would be lazy poor people under different circumstances.

The rest of the squad were happy when he signed. You want to play with good players and you don't want to see your club losing their best young players to other clubs. He had had a very strong off season and impressed the squad and coaches enough to come from nowhere to get a first grade spot.
Of course some journeymen on low pay, espeically in the same position, may get miffed that some teenager can come from nowhere and earn 4 times as much as they do despite them being more experienced and proven

I didn’t see anyone complaining when he was named ahead of Rankin last year. There’s a million legitimate reasons people have to bag Taylor. You don’t need to make up reasons.

I think its more an example of where Jason Taylor got it wrong rather than something that is Taylors fault. He talked club culture but failed to really understand it .
Going all in on Moses Suli while talented and full of potential was not a good use of salary cap if the number one priority you yourself identified was club culture.
A Cooper Cronk wasnt going to fall from the sky and magically change the culture, you had to go and actively recruit it and prioritise it in your salary cap.
