Reynolds back to Bulldogs?

We have some smart people looking after recruitment these days ..

Sign all these young guys up and if we get a diamond or 2 out of them we will have the money to retain them in a few years when we lose JR, Packer, McQueen etc..

Yes and no Jonesy

You still need some hard heads who have been around the game to lead the youngers blokes around the field and potential pitfalls

Potential is still just that ...potential

Agree mate .. Nothing beats experience

Just the fact that there will be money in the kitty for a few special players that need bigger money is comforting.
Nothing hurts more than getting that young talent or the diamond in the rough & you don't have the money so they leave for another club with the funds...

i do now we have heard all this before so fingers crossed.

Some current players will probably get upgraded by that time as well so not as much as we may think but still a good amount.

Even for next year I’m sure some guys will be earning more than this year plus we will have to pay for BJ Leilua so we might not have as much as we think. Hopefully we can get one good player at least like JAC or Cotric.

G'day Josh: I'm not being disrespectful in any way to JAC, but is he a risk of going walkabout with his Brothers of his Mob and maybe doing the wrong thing again?

Gday mate - There definitely is, but hopefully he learns from his mistake during this pre season And Bellamy had a good go at him for stuffing up and risking the NRL return. Think he’ll be even more of a risk of stuffing up if he goes to Souths with all his mates as well. Think roosters will end up signing him to be honest

For me he’s good enough a player to take that risk on. It’s only been one incident so we have to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Getting in trouble at 16 is a lot different to getting in trouble while being a footy player, I’d say there’s plenty of other players who got in trouble as kids too. As a first grader I’ve only seen him stuff up with the camping incident nothing else.

Like I’ve been saying the whole time the camping incident was stupid. His other warnings were just for sitting in his car, Ive seen thousands of people do the same or similar. Not enough for me to not sign him but if you think different that’s okay. I’d really like to sign Nic Cotric for the wing if we don’t get JAC which seems likely.

Fair enough. IMO there is a LOT of evidence that JAC has issues that indicate he has an unstable and hazardous life off field. Add to the list the fact that he needs to leave the Storm because of a family break up with his daughters mother and that he needs to be back in Sydney to be with his daughter. Was his daughter up at Latrells? Its all conjecture of course but for mine there is more than enough evidence that signing JAC as top dollar for a winger is fraught with risk. IMO he has souffs written all over him.

Correct, that is why would I take Koroibate, Rona, Cotric or Tupou, and leave JAC to Mundine's off the field antics!

We have some smart people looking after recruitment these days ..

Sign all these young guys up and if we get a diamond or 2 out of them we will have the money to retain them in a few years when we lose JR, Packer, McQueen etc..

Yes and no Jonesy

You still need some hard heads who have been around the game to lead the youngers blokes around the field and potential pitfalls

Potential is still just that ...potential

Agree mate .. Nothing beats experience

Just the fact that there will be money in the kitty for a few special players that need bigger money is comforting.
Nothing hurts more than getting that young talent or the diamond in the rough & you don't have the money so they leave for another club with the funds...

i do now we have heard all this before so fingers crossed.

Some current players will probably get upgraded by that time as well so not as much as we may think but still a good amount.

Even for next year I’m sure some guys will be earning more than this year plus we will have to pay for BJ Leilua so we might not have as much as we think. Hopefully we can get one good player at least like JAC or Cotric.

G'day Josh: I'm not being disrespectful in any way to JAC, but is he a risk of going walkabout with his Brothers of his Mob and maybe doing the wrong thing again?

Correct, that is why would I take Koroibate, Rona, Cotric or Tupou, and leave JAC to Mundine's off the field antics!

You forgot Rankin. He’s on his way back to Aus apparently. Giddy Up!
