@ said: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.
Taylor had the right idea, just failed miserably trying to implement it. It’s easy now in hindsight to criticise Suli’s contract, but the fact 10 clubs were chasing him gave you an idea of the kids potential. Had we missed the boat and he became a superstar somewhere else, we would never have heard the end of it. Least now he’s gone and we aren’t paying him a cent. We free up half a million in the cap, the Dogs sign a lemon, everyone wins.
