Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

As you said ..winning games would increase home crowds ( and memberships) ..

That should be their primary motivation …. Not making an extra $100-200k by selling home games to the opposition clubs

I don't agree with taking the home game there but it would be much sweeter than $100-$200k for the club.

I’ve seen him play 7 and he sucks. He’s useless.

Can he play 9 .. ?? .. his body shape could make him a back up 9 .. ??

Jesus Christ that is grim news. Mason is truly an awful player.

Shocking contact in defence, poor positions, terrible hands and woeful under the high ball. Got an average running game at best and can’t pass.

What are we doing wasting a spot on him.

100%

Sukkar over Mason.
AND bring back Conti!

Conti resigned with dogs a few weeks ago

Bring at Large but he just extended Manly

If you look at stats,
Then Latu's stats show up pretty badly in friday nights game playing in a winning team of 36 to nil.

But then look at Luai's effort in A team winning by over 60 points, and his stats look a lot similar to Latu's, and they only kicked 5 from 13 shots so the score could have been closer to 80, so to me Luai's effort was bad for a half in a walkover like that.

26 who we know of officially.

I’d be pretty confident Sukkar is another but no confirmation. Don’t know what contracts Taupau-Moors & Godinet are upgraded to next season either (ideally Development).

Neither had top 30 contracts as part of their original contracts. Neither have impressed enough nor are remotely close to top 30 and hopefully haven't been upgraded

I think both were on dev contracts next year

i hear closer to 500k

samuela has ratchet and origin clauses also, i heard yonks ago it was a long term deal, so interested to see its now 2

the boys love benji

If they love him like they say they do, then hopefully they start playing for him.
Otherwise he's a goner. The players sure played like they hated Benji this season.

Having players linking they're contracts to the coach with the best odds of being sacked is not a good thing.
