Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Garrick improved as a player when he went to Manly - playing outside some quality players. Not sure where Laurie's future lies, but we have done very little as a club to develop any players in recent times yet plenty leave and hold positions in other more successful clubs.

Don't remember Garrick before Manly, but don't doubt you on his improvement. Laurie had a good first season at the tigers before falling out of favour and subsequently being usurped by a kid playing his first game who has imo already shown himself at least a far better investment, if not simply a better fullback.

You can't change the past, you can't change the present and as it stands currently - whatever circumstances or mitigating factors there may be for Laurie - there is simply no comparison between the two.

But that's just my opinion. One of the interesting things about sport is differing views and favourite players; people just like how certain players go and aren't keen on others. I'm not a fan of Laurie, don't see much in Sam Walker either. Never liked DCE, but big fan of Jake T....

Had a chat with an insider on the coaching staff (yes Tito has his sources - believe it or not). Said the Fainu brothers are coming. Brooks is gone. Fulton is a knob and will destroy the club.

Two out of three ain’t bad? The Fulton comment is a worry. If he’s a problem Lee and Justin will also have to go.

Sometimes change agents aren't liked.

Would be curious to know what there is to destroy at the club?
We are coming off the back of a wooden spoon that the club actively tried to win and are struggling to keep above 17th with an imploding Dragons side this season.

Depends who the comment came from I guess. There are definitely 2 factions in the club, so if it came from someone who was in the Warren camp then it's meaningless, but if it's someone impartial then it's a worry. The Fulton's have always been nobs though. Bob was the rudest most arrogant person you could ever meet. Completely rude to everyone.

The club is not already destroyed?

The only names of possible recruits linked to Fulton are Manly players !
Is that the extent of his recruitment market place ?

Hate to see what the destruction of our club becomes given how things have already been.

If he annoys the head honchos he will be moved on quickly.

He's got a low bar to reach if he's going to destroy the club. Where is Brooks gone to finding that out is harder than finding Wally.

Fulton will destroy the club for those who like to see it coming last.
Our board are a bunch of nuffies who seem to not care one bit about the footy team
and if Fulton has his way in bringing in good players and lifting us off the bottom , it just means the board will have more work to do and , my guess is that they wont be too happy.

The DT is reporting that Ben Hunt will finalise a release with the Dragons early next week with the intention of joining the Broncos for the last 4 months of the season. Important to note that this would only be a cameo and they CAN'T afford him from 2024 and beyond (then joining the Titans). The reports also states that no formal offer or negotiations have taken place but they reportedly WILL contact the club on Sunday to discuss an immediate transfer.

Fun if Hunt has a repeat of 2015 GF.

Have to back you there mate , my late father worked over the north side in the clubs and he said Bozzo was an arrogant person and thought he was better than most , it’s a shame but a lot of players get this way , I can remember heading to Parra leagues when sterlo was a gun and he had a group of guys surround him all the time pushing people out the way so he could cruise in , I get they are great players but some take it way to far with out probably knowing it , these 2 mentioned are only the tip of a big list

 

[Fainu Brothers]

Cant really tear apart the club when we are looking at Back to back wooden spoons and havent made finals since 2011. Might be great for the club, let see who else he can add to the roster

 

[The Chad]

Am I the only person amazed we are not linked to Zak Fulton yet?

“Destroy the club”….😂😂😂…that will only Happen if he doesn’t do his job and recruit quality players….relax…everything Fulton decides on is ratified by a committee which includes board members…..

That's not really reassuring.
