Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Not gunna lie it puts a sour taste in the mouth, if it was all about the tv deal a simple ratchet clause would fix that. All this after the Stef clause, if you knew this about Luai why would you be so vocal around no more clauses makes us look stupid and incompetent.

surely this isnt true!! Richo went on about shonky contracts from the previous peeps and how he wouldnt have a bar of it!!

You do realise this guy has won the last four comps?! And the current origin winning five eighth!!

So someone who provides inside info, never thought to mention this in passing while providing all your other insights? 🤔

Go easy on Kade, we should be grateful for ANY inside info he provides…don’t push him away like the forum did to the others

I'm not too worried, if Luai was planning on bailing he wouldn't have tried to bring Taruva and May across.

Who’s pushing him away? My God, if you are that delicate where you can’t handle constructive criticism, on an internet forum, it probably isn’t the place for you.

He will go with Galvin to the Rorters in a package deal...

Oh man I can’t wait to see that happen, this place will be awesome lmfao….

You compared an actual successful rugby league administrator with the paddle pop lion who ran our club into the dumpster. Not sure you’re being that constructive.

For months I heard how contract clauses were the devil, now they are being applauded.

I think the clauses you’re referring to were based around origin selection and making finals.

If we’re not winning in two years the forum will be calling for Luai’s arse anyway. Chill.

I’ll take that bet.

Pretty poor that it is has taken 12 months to come out to the fans

It's just disrespectful to us ......all I ask for as a fan is honesty ......Richo and Benji didn't even think we deserved that

 

[Tucker]

lol no way

Galvin is a goat

Latu is a talent but has less drive, heart, humility, aggression, fitness, hunger, obsession for the game, and confidence than galvin

Trust me.

What galvin did this year - no other player has even done at his age. Even Gus agrees. And Joey, thurston, smith and slater all fan boying over his performance at Leichhardt.

Dude you’re dreaming if you think Latu is better.

Silkier yes.

All round greatness no.

LOL what a ridiculous load of shit.

Given our current attempts to bump off 4yr contracted players Sullivan and Bateman a bit rich to get all flustered about an elite player making sure he is looking after his own best interests..

 

[Tucker]

The bloke before him had us cheering for Wakeham and Laurie in the halves. 👏

and Brooks…that was you as well yeah?

 

[Camel2281]

Why not just sack him then?

You quite often can't. Protections in place quite often favour underperforming employees over employers. What you can do is either performance manage them to either perform or leave themselves

Anyone seen that Simpsons episode Marge v Monorail when Marge meets the engineer who tells her how shoddy the monorails are that Lyle Lanley builds are and tells her”you better have a damn good conductor”, cut to Homer trying to open the drivers door with a coat hanger cos he locked his keys inside? That’s how I feel about us now. “We better have a damn good coach”. Cut to Benji.

This is the bloke that defended Jason Taylor uphill and down dale, so his judgement is very questionable

[Camel2281]

Why was he a muppet? Was one of the reasons for signing ridiculous clauses?

He gave Luke Brooks a contract which paid his $1.1 million in 2023. After years of proof he couldn't be 'The Guy' at halfback. That's a muppet move
