Richo is rock hard though....he will do what it takes to she dead wood

That is true but ONLY if our club let's him do it.Unfortunately there have been far to many times in the past where our club has taken the soft option and backed the players when the pressure comes back from them

I never said I want them passing out , I would like to see them break into a sweat , or is it cold down south , been 30 deg days up hear so could be the difference , maybe

It’s been warm enough to sweat, that’s for sure.

I’m sure when the time is right they will get kms in the legs. Benji has already been quoted as saying that all players were expected to return in better condition, so it’s not as though they aren’t aware of it.

I think a large part of our problem isn’t necessarily fitness, it’s the fact we have a lot of young guys who just don’t have the 3-4 years of NRL standard training to build on. We are at least one step further down the road in that regard.

Please god may you be talking about Football 😉

Seriously, I don't think Richo is rock hard. I think he is competent, but no wrecking ball.

Gould, Jason Ryles, Jason Taylor... Wrecking balls. Tough guys who will fire half the club to make it competitive. Flanno seems to be of the same ilk.


Richo will fire people. He is no Gould, for better and worse.

15k offers from Albania

Did you share this in the right place?

Would be great except he's managed by Isaac Moses. Would Moses swap his own players?

I guess it depends of the future deal offered by both clubs. If Bullemor was to attract a 2-3year deal as opposed to a 1 year extension with Manly you would think Issac would be happy.
Are we willing to offer a deal as long?

Speaking of cheating… a landscape gardener friend of mine seen Benny Hunt eying out property at Bronte… maybe an investment opportunity 🤔 😊

Brontë? That’s in Queensland!

I’m hopeful that two things may occur.

1- our forwards are better because our outside backs will actually do some dirty work
2- Richo still has a couple of recruitment cards to play.

Given that, Benji might not be fully cooked.

So nothing to do with coaching then? You’re hoping these new outside backs and possible new forwards save him….why?

Why don’t you ? Him being saved = the tigers winning.
Why do some of you want a never ending cycle of drama . I’d absolutely love it if Benji became successful . Not because it’s Benji . But because I could take my kids to the games and they could be proud to say they go for the tigers . Not be laughed at by thier mates .

Can somebody explain to me why we haven't resigned Sione yet
His brothers are here for 3 more years nothing adds up.?

Roster spot (lack of) is the issue

Then why didn't they sign him before Hunt

 

[ancient_magpie]

I'll find out tomorrow I'm going to bed goodnight all

 

[cochise]

Because the decision was made that Hunt would add more to the squad than Sione.

Anyway we could fit in Bula, Luai, Api, Galvin and Latu as our spine.. with TDS coming off the bench ? Pretty good attack wise ..

Our forwards won’t be better because of our backs. We still need to be going forward to utalise our backs. Panther forwards give them go forward allowing the backs to shine. We need 1-2 big forward signings. They are priority for this season.

Hope your right about 2.

Havea is still in primary school. He might end up 155kg and built like the Vegas Dome by the time he's 20.

Um, he's 16...?

But he's currently also quite small, will need to keep growing to help withstand playing against men down the track
