This reminds me to get on the terps early today. Good times.

We proved it was correct

Come on mate. This is ridiculous. We won in 2005. We won the whole thing.

You failed to answer my question ..what club won a premiership and then missed the semis the 5 years following

 

[Lee's fedora]

We won but we failed to set ourselves up for long term success

The 2023 premiership winners.

The 2023 premiership winners.

Remember " white men can't jump" sometimes when you win ...you lose ...sometimes when you lose you actually win ....sometimes you can win and neither win or lose ....one of life's hard truths

Parra after 86.

Dogs and Redcliffe have pulled out of the Moses race its just us and parra now

Worst part they sack sheens then lost most of the juniors that would of set up the future if they did it right by sprinkling experience just like Sheens is doing now.

You changed the measuring stick

8 team semi finals system ...not 5

Ah right. Didn't read the fine print. Its the type of thread you skip through.

Parra after 86.

Based on a Top 8 ...7th in 87 ....8th in 89 .....8th in 90

Which means the dogs have probably got him.
Typical Gould, we’ve pulled out of the race then announce a signing

But But But - weren't we going to be the Manchester United of the rugby league world?

I hope that our forward pack can in fact "compete with the best of them" because i think whilst it is brilliant compared to last year's pack it's still a long way off being a top tier NRL pack.

That's hard to judge, but it looks very good to me. I can't see a weakness. Still the halves and the backs, especially a couple of game changers like Munster, Lui, Manu etc needed, to complete the package. We are about 80% up the mountain, another year to the top, but i'm an optimist !

 

[Goldust]

A lack of depth in the Halves is a huge concern.
Maybe will smith will take up that last spot ? Even NSW cup has no true half.
Brooks goes down we’re cooked .
A Wakeham,Falls or Frawley type signing is almost necessary for next season

 

[cktiger]

I think it’s sweet how some are still sticking up for Maguire.

Also find it laughable people think Sheens is the messiah before we've even played one game.
Oh, and Brooks will suddenly become a halfback.

Brooks again,,! can't leave him alone? O C D.

Well documented that Adam Hartigan was largely involved in recruitment.

It was a committee of people doing the recruiting. Pascoe, Lee, Madge and Hartigan. Madge couldn't recruit who he wanted without running it last the committee

Gents if you haven't noticed the gutter journalist are already death riding us and promoting their usual. Unfortunately this is where most of Australia go to get their information. We don't need the in house flighting the media already keen to rip us apart.

Most of these hacks seem to work for one particular newspaper. They've currently got their team of talentless dopes working through each team's 2023 prospects and you can bet ours, when it appears, will be chock full of their usual negative garbage

Might not be the messiah, time will tell. He is genuinely making positive inroads into this side which really weren't there before. He is trying to fast-track success and been bold in the process. Wants to set success up for Benj who in his own right will have better player pulling power than any coach before him. We do need to see results on the field though which I think will come in 2023 and more so in '24.

 

[crazycat]

Yeh I'm sure he'll do what's best 4 him but you really see better opportunities outside WT for him?

This is about Seyfarth...

Look let him goto reggie's for a bit, as long as he is still a cheapie.. 2022 sucked and sucked for the entire team. We have a good pack but could benefit from depth in the front row. People get injured and we may have an origin bolter this year.
