Potter wasn't sacked..Voldamort bailed..so it's only 1 in the 6 years..


You'll never get a gig as a journo champion Geo - you have standards, report facts and lack agendas.

I dunno ...
He’s got plenty of fluff articles on Brooks up his sleeve ?

Don't you mean wall

How the hell did you acquire a picture of @Geo s bedroom ?

ET has announced he won't play in 2021. More cap space for JAC.

There's no additional cap space as ET wasn't signed beyond this season. Extra cap space will come if we can offload a contracted player who we don't need - aka Reynolds or Packer...

That is only true if his money has been allocated elsewhere

Elijah Taylor on 9 news said he's been told to look for another club

Wasn’t he told this many months ago and he’s off contract? Playing his heart out to get one and he will get one somewhere

He was off contract anyway. No extra cap

 

[jrtiger]

watch Griffin re-sign Hunt and Norman and they continue to languish in 13th. stupid move, can't coach to save his life.

Media will turn this ET not getting another offer into another media beat up on the tigers.
All we hear from them is we need a full on roster overhaul... But when Madge starts doing it they complain and say we should be keeping these players etc.... You cannot win

There is currently 7 other teams below us on the ladder with most of them with better rosters than us but WE are there focus... Not Dogs who sit on bottom with 2 wins, Not Broncos who have been shot all year with 3 wins and a squad of rep players, Not Cows with 4 wins.....But us because we help them sell papers... Bunch of idiots

Honestly I would have at least made ET a small offer. He's good for the squad and doesn't shy away from work at all.

I reckon he’s really trying to make it work. Cut out the penalties. Slows the play the ball and a smart footballer. He’s just not a big guy.

I agree and what I have noticed this year compare to last year is that he actually tries to make running metres. He gives 110% every week for effort and a lot could learn from him..

Yeah I wouldn't have complained.

Conversely it's a good opportunity to promote youth in his place.

Not Broncos who have been shot all year with 3 wins and a squad of rep players

TBF if you haven’t seen media reporting on the Broncos’ woes this year you must have been living on Mars.

Get your upset with media attention but cmon - the Broncos have copped it all over the place for months & so have some other clubs from the media.

The leaks from the club are driving the media, but it all started after Benji being told he isn’t wanted which was always going to get media attention.

It’s the same teams that cop negative press every year - mainly us, Dogs, Sharks, Manly & St George. Broncos have been added this year because let’s face it, it’s hard to ignore their fall from grace and the media seem to hate Seibold because he’s not Wayne Bennett who they usually fawn all over. Very rarely see anything negative written or spoken about any of the other teams. The Cowboys have played like busteds for much of the season, but barely a murmur.

But if we don't resign ET, then who is going to give all our penalties away?

We also need to remember we are NOT in a position to pick and choose... Like many clubs on the bottom you sometimes need to pay overs but need to be smart on who we do this on though.. JAC is not old and finished up looking for a retirement package so its a YES from me.

problem is 30 going to 28, plus we have some deadwood for a few years and we need to improve roster.

Gotta make the tough calls unfortunately

And all clubs are in the same boat - 30 becoming reduced to 28.
There's going to be tears.

Woods was described by a Sharks' fan as the Matt Moylan of props.

Trent Barrett should 'reconsider' Canterbury Bulldogs job, says Phil Gould

WRITTEN BYTOM NAGHTEN

Incoming Bulldogs coach Trent Barrett should think about backflipping on his deal given the backroom drama currently at the club.

That's the opinion of rugby league heavyweight Phil Gould as warring factions in the football and leagues clubs continue to butt heads

Former Manly coach Barrett signed a three-year deal to coach Canterbury to start following the 2020 season.


_______________

Could this help us land a couple of Penrith players
Gould's comments could damage Bulldogs chances of landing Panthers players

With reported problems (infighting) at the Bulldogs back room, you would hope we might be in the box seat to snare a signature or two over the dogs

Also may help with the Addo-Carr Signing

Im honestly a bit saddened at ET leaving i've really admired the way hes worn the tigers jersey while he's been here.

He has been really solid the last few weeks. In fact one of our better players whenever he is on the field.
He seems to have gotten rid of his penalties, He's a workhorse, and a model professional. its nice to have players like that in a squad.
