Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

How TF is Gus allowed 2 speak with Daniel Suluku
Fifita and let him tour the facilities when he's
still under contract until the end of 2025? He's
already freed up $2m with retiring Josh Jackson,
Tevita Pangai Jnr & getting rid of their old
captain Raymond Faitala Mariner. Not to 4get
they also got cap relief for Bailey Biondi-Odo
for last year as well & freeing up a roster spot
for him. Completely overhauled the top 30 in
the last few years, credit to him. Glad we have
new people running the show. The last CEO and
Football director seem even more incompetent
now than before they left. We need 2 keep making
these cutthroat moves we made with Nofa in
relation to the club & cap moving forward. Full stop

Jackson Topine has not been to pre season training someone was telling me the other day so maybe a trade

Who is
Daniel Suluku Fifita ?

Debuted for the Chooks a few years back, and was touted as a future star because of his size and athleticism, but he's had a rocky start to his career through poor on field discipline. I didn't really notice him for Souths this year.
He seems like a serviceable prop, with plenty of size and aggression, but needs to learn how to keep it in check before he can be of any use to a team. Very much a fringe 1st grader at this stage

I wonder how much of the dogs cap is absorbed in those terminations.

I don't rate their team compared to ours. Especially when we get luai next year. We're stronger on the park and stronger in depth. The only place they have our measure is the outside backs.

Agree.

And I think everyone expected CC and Gus to lift their players but it hasn’t been forthcoming.

Then I think Gus fired a few warning shots over ccs bow last season.

My bet is that cc regrets his decision not to join us.

It’s become a graveyard for marquee. Their fans are very upset.

I actually had a feeling that Gus might be talking to Taulmalolo on the qt ?

That's also because he went for the all or nothing play almost every time. As a player he was incapable of being a steady headed tactical oriented player. If there was a 1/100 play available to him he'd pass/kick the ball every time and turn over the ball cheaply just as often as he set up points

Horses for courses. Blake Green would not have elevated those Wests Tigers sides into finals contention.

They are at 30 out of 30. Most likely will sign him to Development contract so that the cap is in tact.
A complete top 30 turn over since 2021.
Is that a good thing, or a sign of a horrible state of a club over the past 3 years?

Zac Montgomery quit NRL so he's out of their 30.

Have heard a bunch of rumours that seem to suggest Jackson Topine is gone too.

So they're at 28 or 29.

Hmmm. Wait and see I guess.
Also wasn’t Topine part of the 2021 squad?

No idea man. I'm still trying 2 figure out how they
can take a player & talk/take 4 a tour who's under
contract until the end of November? Usually
you hear about a player being free 2 negotiate
from their club b4 anything. No idea, beats me

if the Bulldogs have a bad start to the season then expect to see Wayne Bennett having a Chinese meal with Gus

It’s a certainty, but since I was called to this great club, I don’t know any different.

All I’ve known is a slow and steady descent to the spoon, then flatline as we can’t fall and lower and harder.

And call me mad, but every trip, stumble and injury and has been worth it.

Following another club sucks, you long term tragics ( I admire and respect) you…you couldn’t understand it.

I’ve seen the faces of death in other colours.
