Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Halbrowne61]

Just watching 100% footy and noted 2 things.
1. Laurie supposedly set to sign with the Panthers for 12 months and,
2. Nice Uncle Gus visited the Fainu elder in prison for an hour and an half, after a catch up with the other 2 brothers. Mentoring not signing is what he said. Smooth as silk that man, watch out he doesn’t Trump, who is a convicted Rapist and Felon the Phins and us in signing them.

2- I think its more likely they sign with the Dogs than the Dolphins personally

We have the last few weeks. Sione Fainu suddenly getting a start in NSW Cup.

I think that is blatantly obvious though and I'm sure they won't forget he was 18th man for NSW Cup earlier in the year.

Again, just shows there is no plan.

Gould is a snake, liar who will do anything to benefit himself and it is blatantly obvious that’s what he is doing now. Did he visit any other inmates, no, bcoz no others have brothers he might be able to sign.
I would subtlety remind them we have developed their brother from an 18th man to the run-on side playing better than he ever has, and that Phil is only making prison visits to not so subtlety get his foot in the door to a party he’s late for.
This was my take on it the first time I heard Phil went for a prison visit. You don’t go to a prison for fun friendly chats, they are not a very nice place to be at for any reason.
Hopefully the Fainu Family can see through Phil too.

Well yes, that’s his job and he is doing it well.
Why would he speak with other inmates?
Have you ever visited a prison? You can’t just hang around chatting to whoever you want to all arvo. Your point is stupid to be honest and it’s drowning in bitterness.

They want to stay in Sydney

Hard to fathom why the Bulldogs would want the Fainu brothers given that the Bulldogs signed Sexton and Oloapu this year plus have Burton and several other promising halves coming thru in the lower grades, hence why the Tigers were able to sign Iverson Matai from the Dogs recently so no need for the Dogs to sign another promising half (not short of backrowers either).

Prehaps Fainu is an upgrade on Matai?

Problem is if there's infighting and he wants to but Sheens and Benji say no go get us player so and so he really can't do anything, he's hamstrung.

Problem is none of us know who is the problem

More crap dribble from sucker, you gunna try and fat shame me again?
Yes sucker I have been to prisons and the only one drowning in his own bitterness is you Champ.
This oughta set you off for a few days then hey???

Most of the time yes.
As much as I dislike Phil I wish he was workin it for the Tigers.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Gus goes and visits Fainu in prison, no mention of his cell mate Hayne plane, so anyone thinking this was an act of compassion think again.
Gould might not be looking to sign the kids in this instance watch out next contract, when inevitably he'll mention remember when i visited your bro in prison i have your best interests at heart.
He's a self serving snake of the highest order, shouldnt be allowed on TV to spin his rubbish each week.

He most definitely is.

Iverson has some potential. Latu has buckets more.

Karlos is a lock, Burton a centre. you put Latu at 6 and they look incredibly dangerous across the park.

Given the way the media can portray anyone in a bad light if they want to- there has to be some element somewhere that Gould might actually be...just doing a good thing.

I have no doubt he's very self serving. But he has a lot of connections in the game & a lot of people do look up to him.

I'm still mildly confused as to how Blake Taaffe is going to fit in there.

Oloapu has played mostly in the halves but if the Dogs want to switch him to lock given he is 94kgs and could add more size that is a possibility.

Oloapu was unhappy at the Broncos because, from memory, he was playing hooker.

Left to play in the halves at the Bulldogs.

Now moving into lock?

I predict an unhappy camper down the road.

[jrtiger]

You forgot Burtons price tag....
he's not getting paid that amount to play centre - Ever!!
Of that I can assure you....

well if Latu ends up there he will be moved. watch.

 

[Don Kershane]

I thought the the only crims Gould was interested in were the one armed bandits.
