The Mick Potter and JT eras were farily horrible. One thing I give Pascoe much credut for is that before him we had thise 2 horrible coaches while since he has been CEO we have had Cleary and Madge who are a big step up in quality if coaches we have hired even if the Ivan piece didnt work out in the end.

Did Pascoe hire Jt?

Nope, but gave him an entire off season and then fired him after round 1 or 2. The players found out through the media and were pissed.

I thought the board (Marino Go) sacked him, Pascoe would of done that duty though?

No doubt the board would have been involved, but I remember specifically Pascoe in the press conference saying “we’re not going sit here and let the club drift”.

Yet four and a bit years later, drifting we are once again.

The guy who showed up to training hungover cares?

Probably why they're looking at trading him for Cotric (according to the 'grapevine')


Oh my god if that is a doable deal, make it happen.

Surely the dogs aren’t that stupid are they?

They promised Nic fullback then he wanted to be a centre and they're playing him on the wing.

Grass isn't as green as both parties thought.

AD and Cotric have been spending a lot of time together and a swap is on the cards.

???

A swap for who? AD for Cotric?

We would be insane...

Or you mean AD and Cotric want to play together (time togther) and we would swap another player for Cotric?

Nofo Cotric

Please let this be true....I would weep with joy...

Foetal position...weeping with joy...
 
Lomax would be an absolute coup for us, had a look at his contract, looks like he is long term at the Drags. Not going to be easy to get him out of that. Take it he may be on the outer with the playing group particularly for not signing that stat dec, which he shouldn't sign if they had more people at the party because that would be illegal! Cotric and Lomax, wow... made my day guys. Solid work

Well conveyed and understood then, as that is how I wrote it.

Seems like quite a stretch, as surely the NRL would be all over it if there is something fishy.

I'd be very surprised if this was true. At most someone putting 2 +2 =pineapple
 
Cotric is a definite upgrade over Nofa. Yes he hasn't impressed at the Dogs but Turbo would struggle to look good in that side.

Lomax is incredible.

With Gildart and Hastings coming in this backline will look good for once.

This is what we should do with our money, not throw it at lazy, inconsistent players like BJ 2.0 *cough* sorry TPJ

Pretty sure the Cotric thing is a gee up, Demps posted a picture of him, with him supposedly say, “I always wanted to be a tiger”, no player would do that (did Benji do it?) while still under contract?
 
I'd happily turf Nofo for Cotric, it would also be getting rid of someone whose attitude has changed since getting a new contract.

No
Benji always wanted to play union

Didn't Benji wear a Union jersey while still contracted to us
Or have I got that wrong
 
I believe the dgos have too many backs for next year and will prob let one go so I could believe Cotric wanting to leave somewhere he hasnt settled.

I dont believe they would want to swap for Nofa because they would still have 1 too many outside backs when their problem is forwards and spine. If they wanted Liddle that to me would make sense, if they wanted one of our young forwards that would make sense. What id really like is them wanting a super sub Moses Mbye

I think Hoppa will be the one to go, if any.

He's off to St Helens.

They still want another FG winger tho.
