Tell me if it isn't the better team?
Cmon now... don't lie.

Whether it is or it isn’t, it’s still a bottom 4 side.

9th.

Building on the present.

Man I am hoping we don't sign Elliot.. Yeah, not too bad of a player - but would you really want to play with someone who will try to cut your grass at team functions lol?

How likely do you think that is to happen?
Lol, surely lightning won't hit twice.


For the record, he tried it on former team mate Michael Lichaas Mrs.
Not sure who was at fault, both, just him or just her.... their business.

The recent news I believe she is a single lady.

End of the day, not a serious crime.
Days of our lives stuff.
Don't even care to hear about it tbh.

Well from what it was reported is that Lichaa decided to go to bed early, woke up and seen his missus wasnt next to him, went out the back and seen them making out LOL, i'd crack the bloke and tell my missus to piss off aswell.

Secondly, this shouldnt have happened twice - obviously Elliot has a kid and missus and decided to do the deed again..

I thought we were building a culture in our club not only just on the field performances (If any).

Im un-decided if it will be good signing or not.. great player, someone we need - but has he cut out all the crap OFF the field is what I'd like to see.

Wouldn't even make news if it was Barry from Woy Woy Roosters...

Tell him to get his stuff together and focus on the career, one strike and you're out clause in the contract. Any club doesn't need that publicity.

Elliot is a footballer, as I've said. Always has a crack. Yeah, the Bulldogs aren't that good but he always has a dig.

I'd take him but yeah no dramas, don't want that embarrassment and neither should he.
Peter Vlandys likes him and spoke glowingly of him with regards to what he does off field for charity and community, such as indigenous welfare, youth, etc.

There's a good person in there some where and also a good footballer too.
He could help us and we could also help him, with our current links to Awakbal and the like.

It's a good match and will be much more beneficial for all, compared to BJ, Roberts.

It all comes down to Adam Elliot.
He needs to pull his head in and do the right thing off the field and by himself, his family and his future club.

Yep, I'll take him with a clause if he stuffs up he's gone.

Unsure on whether to take him on or not, though pre-season isn't far away and we need to fill some holes.

It sounds like he's our man then!

Nice! ????

would much rather Heilum Luki than Adam Elliott if we're looking at off-contract back rowers. there was whispers that we had approached him, anyone know if it's progressed any further?

Would much prefer Luki over Elliott, Luki has been pretty impressive in the Cows games I watched. You would think the Cows have seen enough promise there and will lock him up if he is happy to stay in Townsville though.

Peachey is 30 and not looking to join another struggling club in a rebuild. He will not come to us

That’s when it’s a question of money. If he is a worthwhile player that you’ve identified to fill a lot of issues you end up paying more money.

Save the money. Him on 4-500 (probably more since it’s us) will not improve this squad by any means.

I'd be OK with Peachey coming but he is NOT a player to splash good money on. Will end up Mbye 2.0.

Still Adam D to come back in also. ?

Indeed, king Adam...
I think he, Talau and Simpkin miss the first few rounds. Other wise it'd look different.

Whats up with Simpkin i heard he went off injured in the last game but i didnt see it. Im pretty sure i was off somewhere putting my fist through a wall

Did not say ‘splash the money’ I mean if he has a few options and we have (and this is all dependent on whether he is identified this way) identified him as a necessary piece; being more than a capable utility and being an indigenous Australian he would fit into our program we are building at the club.
Than you would make sure you offer the highest in a bidding war to get him.

he's a local junior up there, but money talks. he looks a prospect.

Yes he's progressed into a gas.

Raiders now looking at Peachy , I hope our mob don’t sit on there hands for to long , Simms and Peachy I would be chasing now , whomever is the coach can just cop it if we get them , both are in our current 17 no problem

Going on our club's record we will miss out on anybody another club is also chasing. They should call the club "Sleepy Tigers".

Unless there's offers currently on the table it might no be a matter of what he wants.

I’m not sure why we’re not looking at Peachey. We don’t have anyone who can play the lock in the modern game.


The fact motor mouth Lee has said nothing does not mean anything.He only seems to like being associated with the BIG names

He seems to have a huge ego problem.

We leak like a sieve though. Everyone knows the players we're talking to.

Problem is Demps is that he's bog average. He's not even as good as Blore Luciano or Garner.

I disagree My man.
Luciano struggles with 80.
Elliot has a good tank.
I don't rate Garner.
Hoping he's off to Manly.

I generally have an aversion to these cast offs. I dont see them as the way forward but I can see some merit in Scott (with all the necessary contract clauses), Sims and possibly Peachey.

Avoid at all costs Woods and Elliott

Thank you.........STOP bringing up Sharron.......... opportunity to be a respected clubman has long gone DONT need more retirement villages
