Not fussed if we don't get him. Will eat too much salary cap and is very risky given his inconsistency.

I'm fine with missing out on him as well.

We have to sign someone and he's by far and away the best available. He also addresses a couple of weaknesses (offloads and impact).

Going into next year with Gildart and Hastings as our major signings will be a complete disaster.

Here we go. People already turning on TPJ after weeks of saying “this could be one of the biggest things to happen to our club if we signed him”

Dogs are very close to getting Paul Vaughn as well on the cheap as no one else wants him.. Seem strange that other clubs have not tried..
Surely our luck has to changed soon... I feel the dogs have got TPJ and have a lot of momentum after all the signings and Gus.

meanwhile at Tigers its just silence and the new Football Manager is stuck in another country..

Vaughan is a bad influence on a playing group, causes a lot of drama and is towards the end of his career, only desperate clubs will chase him

 

[avocadoontoast]

only desperate clubs will chase him

That rules us out

We don't have a new football manager.

I think everyone should remember that the Broncos have got him, but don't want him.
I doubt it's only salary cap related. They are prioritising other back rowers ahead of him.

Oh please

If you seach deep within your soul you knew he was never coming, i dont know why it comes as a surprise. We can only attract youngsters looking for an opportunity or has beens.

What's up? His former coach literally came out and said he's not a leader. He intentionally broke lockdown rules twice and was also caught up in a sexting scandal, the bloke is an absolute moron and good teams won't want that at their club.

Performance Manager or Football manager - what ever the title is for Sheens. Its a similar role and hope his Zoom is working overdrive

 

[Sco77y]

I thought we weren't in play - POM mentioned that earlier in the thread. Something about the price, Hartigan wasn't happy and basically said no thanks? Unless something's changed since then.

Going by that, we didn't seem all that keen..

Wow you’re really far behind...

Must be, read this thread today for the first time again in around 2 weeks. When stuff drags on this long it usually doesn't happen.

 

[Moh]

Really depressing.

Is it though?

Yes.

 

[tigerballs]

@THE_POM @CCTW @tigerballs any updates?

Jayden Okunboor.

 

[innsaneink]

buys like laure is the way to go

Yeah simple

@THE_POM @CCTW @tigerballs any updates?

Jayden Okunboor.

We’re chasing him?

The attitude of "we have to sign someone" is exactly what got us in this salary cap mess. The club appears to have decided to take the patient approach, and Madge confirmed that when he said we will be not looking at a "quick fix, bandaid approach".

Titans still suck with Fifita and Tino. Bulldogs still suck with Thompson, Flanagan, Cotric, and Allan. Look at the top teams and how many "big name" signings they made in the prior few years.

Add, TPJ, Vaughn, Addo-Carr, Naden and Burton onto that list.

Salary cap is slim.
