Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Heard a few things yesterday, mainly Jacko and AD wanting out. Filthy on Madge getting the punt and don't like Noddy. Ciraldo is the only prospect to have been shown around the COE so I guess they've got no other options lined up yet.
I got to the COE just as the team was finishing on the field. There's no team harmony whatsoever. Kelma was sitting by himself taking his boots off in one corner of the pitch when Stefano walked over to him and gave him a gobful. AD, Jacko and 3 or 4 others having a bit of a laugh together but mostly little groups of 3 or 4 just not really enjoying themselves. Bad vibe all round.

Did you expect a good vibe when we need a complete clean out?

Heard a few weeks ago that Kelma has fallen out with a lot of the boys.

This makes sense.

Wonder what Stef said to him 😂

Nice work dropping just about every pass on the weekend, the one where you dived into your own teammates arse then bounced it was my favourite.

Something like that.

It would not surprise me if all of this is close to the mark.I have long held the view we have idiots running the club

Sheens isn’t an idiot and has identified our roster is putrid. We’re going through the stage where it’s every man for himself.

Yes -: it's not like we have a list of players lining up to join the club to choose from. Are they not reading the room - our club can't attract players so make sure you look after the good ones that you have got, or they will have options.

It’s a short list, need to build around Stef, Twal, Jacko and AD. Ken can stay.

At least lock those guys up.

Clearly you have a lot more faith in our club than me. Wouldn’t surprise if they both walk.

The club is imo making good choices. I have no knowledge of Hastings' intentions but after WTs brought him back from banishment in the UK when no other club wanted him, you would expect some loyalty. As for Doueihi, I hope he stays as he is a junior, but we'll be okay if he leaves.

I've always been on the side of positivity but can't see any upside with what's happening around football matters. They have shat all over the FG squad this season with their decision making and if morale is low it rests soley with the blokes in charge of the direction of the club. How anyone can back them seeing the state we are in is beyond my understanding. Throwing everything at an unproven coach is not going to change anything if the we don't have the players to compete. Players want to play with other quality players and unless we recruit and retain them any decent ones will move on.

If no other club wanted him why is he on close to half a mill? Players are in it for themselves and careers die here.

I hope one day your faith in the club is rewarded paws.

In my opinion the players who signed here for an easy payday need to wear part of the blame too.

Hastings was a pariah, rightly or wrongly after the Roosters and Manly issues. He appears to have changed but WTs offered him the opportunity back in the NRL. Some loyalty is due, perhaps I'm just old fashioned.
 
I would love to flick all the forwards who have signed elsewhere because I suspect their mind not on job .So far Mikhalae already playing super league and Luciano gone to cowboys . Kelma playing like he wants early release to Manly and Garner who was doing OK had his worst game last start against Dogs and looking forward to Penrith and why not!
The problem we should be able to move up KOEcup forwards but they are hopeless Someone explain how our cup side can go from 1st prior to covid shut-down to all but last now ? I guess when we pay a 9 year half Munster like money than not much wriggle room .Sheens give us a decent roster and some depth !!! URGENT

Not saying he doesn’t owe it to WT but I’m sure his manager will direct him to look out for himself. Winning helps careers and here it doesn’t happen. Let’s hope we are near or at rock bottom.

Loyalty is dead in the NRL. Wish it wasn't but the sport is pretty rotten and only fluffed up by good marketing and advertisements.

Sadly, I don't think we've hit the bottom yet. Don't know what exactly the bottom looks like but we'll probably know when we get there. I can believe Hastings getting itchy feet but would be surprised if AD feels the same way. I think the next kick in the guts for us could be getting knock backs from a couple of coaches.
