Not missing, just tired of defending my position. Notice you didn’t jump on anyone else saying the same thing the last few pages.

I give it to Tucker, I give it to you. Do you want to support the club or not? I'm working as I browse the forum I haven't got the time to see every comment.

Last years roster lol. definitely no room then for the 6 new players we’ve brought in. Every one of them walk straight into the team.

Is that what I said?
As you missed the point, let me spell it out for you....

He had a better Roster than the few coaches before him - And it wasn't an excuse for them...
Why is it an excuse for him?

Mate your negativity has no limits. Sezer came from the Super League and Sullivan was a fringe first grader at a bottom club. Were you expecting a miracle? I don't expect you to respond because every time someone refutes your point you go missing in action.

Sezar didn't fill my head with enthusiasm when we signed him, but he did jag us some wins annoying that someone with his experience couldn't stay out of the sinbin. Sullivan didn't like the signing on the nose at dragons and stupid money but when your desperate it clouds judgement.

Gunners is right,
They were both highly touted signings here by plenty.

There was plenty getting hammered on here for predicting Sezer
(Who wasn't even that good in his NRL Prime) would be a bust coming back after 5 seasons abroad.
and that Bud had done nothing to hail the fanfare he was getting - except tear the wooden spooners apart once.

I didn't see any apologies when those naysayers were proven right.

Everyone knows Sezar was nothing more than a gap solution. Signed for one year at the backbend of his career - there was no delusions about him being a long-term solution.

Pretty sure we had an option, We'd have probably taken if we didn't land Luai.
He was still touted as the saviour here - by plenty.

As predicted by the rest - He was dogshit.

Embarrassment tends to make you clam up don't want to eat humble pie.

He performed one of the most unsportsmanlike acts I have ever seen. Was after an Origin game when Qld won on the bell, and he walked straight off, ignoring opposition handshakes cos he was too busy having a sulk.

Yeah right. I’ve never seen that side of him, but nothing surprises me.

Think Cogger was the over option, oops did an edit contract option was CO obviously didn't want him.

I don't recall him ever being touted a saviour - more like a band aid much like Sullivan - one with possible potential, one at the backend of his career - both no longer required

Revisionist history to say that enthusiasm wasn’t sky high last off season. It is every off season.

there wasn't much to Richardson's SEN interview, but I found one part particularly interesting.

by saying that it's been the best pre-season preparation he's had in the last 30 years, he is putting pressure on Marshall to deliver. he's planting the seeds now to ensure there can be no excuses.

To state the obvious, Benji would know he is under the pump to get results with the players available.
Know one else to blame at the moment!
I expect him to pick the best players in their best positions and return us to happier days------with minimal criticism, which will not stop some as they are addicted to negativity.

Dare I say it the only season where I felt this accountability was genuine , was the Cleary one . As much as we don’t talk about Voldemort .

The reason I was angry that Ivan left is because he was actually really good. Had he seen his contract out, we may not have needed all these spoons to affect change and set the correct course, allowing this club to turn around.

It was a 100/1 but if we could have landed his son, he would not have defected to riff we might have been a top 4 side by now.
