We would implode

From constipation most likely. On a serious note, I don't think we would offer him enough to play for us.

Especially not after the comments he made last week. When asked about his future he said it would be very hard to leave the success of Melb for a club like Dogs, Tigers and one other that escapes me. There was more said but that was the general conversation.

Fans were upset about a guy like Elliot possible signing...

Wonder if it'd be the same reaction with this guy....

Cheese is a thousand times better as a player at least. Questionable choice in friends and offseason activities but gun player.

Yeah, lol.
Narrative suits when it suits usually.

If the player is a gun, turn a blind eye.
If they're average, no chance!!

All for a redemption story though
 
Unless we release players, we only have room for one of Taylor, Sims, Elliot, Scott.

We've got to be careful too. We could sign Taylor, Elliot and Scott for the same price as just Sims. But that certainly doesn't mean we should! We can only afford to gamble on so many unknowns...

Ideally we'd release Tamou.

The review would have to had said that Tamou was a failure. He was signed to be the leader the team lacks, yet he did and said very little. When we needed someone to rally the squad he was quiet as a mouse. He may be a professional trainer, but that's not enough to be captain, or even in the 17. He's got to earn it.

There's about 4 or 5 roster spots available. Say for argument sake there's 4 then you have room for 3 of those you mentioned keeping 1 free for a possible mid season switch or upgrading of a lower tier contract.

the game needs characters. Brandon Smith, onfield and off-field, is a character. I don't think he'd entertain a switch to WT, but he would be unbelievable for us from a marketing and sponsorship perspective. I don't necessarily condone what he got up to on Mad Monday, but he's a player you can't help but love. his image has deservedly suffered from recent events but he'll be ok in the long run.

We have heaps of money. We have to be aiming much higher than these rejects. Throw coin at players available in 2023 and get them early, pay a fee if you have to. We've got more money than almost anyone else. Time to go hard. Hammer, Grant, Ponga, Brown, Leniu, Manu, who knows. Aim high and be aggressive.

Yeah I don't necessarily condone his actions however the game has far worse playing atm. I feel he's the sort of character team-mates love to be around and play alongside. Would be a huge asset to any team on and off the field.

Before last weeks game I posted that Smith was as an injury waiting to happen the way he plays- Storm probably win with him on the field . Whoever signs him for big money is taking a big risk.

absolutely. this year was his first full year in the top grade in his favoured position and he managed to keep a generational talent (Grant) out of the starting side and won hooker of the year. he's a million dollar player in waiting. whether or not he takes a cut to stay at Melbourne or gets the payday he deserves elsewhere remains to be seen.
 
weve got 3 or 4 haves already,so surely dont need a proven dud like Taylor...?No improvement on what we have.Its not really a position of need
Sims too old and too lazy..never turns up for Dragons.Nup..not him surely
Elliot useful,but weve got a lot of young backrowers already.A senior voice in the pack though..
We desperately need a centre,but Scott??Really ...he wld have to go off the booze ..permanently to consider him.Serial idiot.
Lunai from Panthers has potental,but yet another young prop..?Not exactly what we need atm
So Im hoping its none of the above...
