Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Really can’t see many players with kids ( young ones ) going there , having to live in a compound will not go down well with the wife’s , NO shopping ( that would kill them ) my be it will just be a fly in and then out
BP - the risk of acquiring malaria is very real. The threat from the Anopheles mosquito (female), the vector, is constant. Plasmodium Vivax, which is one of four types of malaria, results in symptoms reoccurring every 48 hrs - high fever, following by spine tingling shivering. You get to recognise the symptoms and anticipate the onset of an attack. The PNG Govt has a national malaria plan to eliminate malaria by 2030.
 
about half a dozen when Flanno was assistant at manly. Moses wanted Galvin to go to Parra, Galvin chose dogs

I’m very dubious Moses is making decisions to benefit an assistant coach …

I would say these moves were made in connection with Mestrov at the time ….and a lot of them were Moses dumping his unwanted players there
 
Shopping in PNG would kill you - literally.
Spent 3 yrs posted to Port Moresby. Yes, you have to be aware of your surroundings when out and about but there is a good, secure shopping mall with cinema, several supermarkets pretty secure and some good restaurants. Schools i no longer know about but there was a good, secure preschool at Ela Beach. At my time there primary and high school were not recommended for our mob but many people with kids that age had partner and kids live in Cairns for that and there are daily flights to and from there. The only real wary time was just before Xmas period when the rascals were trying to rob stuff to take back to their villages. I was surprised how readily I agreed to the 3rd year there when the 2nd was coming to a close. I have a soft spot for PNG and it's people. I hope the wantok system will slowly lessen as people become more educated and aspire to a better life. Places outside PMO are also more relaxed- Rabaul, Lae, Alatau, the highlands. Yes, we lived on a compound but it wasn't that bad. Would think there would be a mix of secure compound- probably Gateways apartments next to Jackson's international airport and something at Cairns where you certainly can relax more. I know when we went to Cairns it felt strange driving around with car doors unlocked and windows down. 😀
 
I’m not doubting your mail, but the casual approach from Bula does not fit Flannos high intensity.
I would be very, vey surprised if Flanno was wanting to spend 900k on Bula.
He’s desperate mate.
He made panic buys in Gutho & Cook, don’t want to go into it too much but he’s often on the nose with his poly players, and I think he’s under a bit of pressure this year
