almost sold me on AR there snake ,almost buddy

Reynolds has two seasons in him easily ..at this moment the club has no Goal kicker ..No general kicker ..No organising 7..No leader in the backline .Adam Reynolds covers ALL bases , but lets just complain ever week about how bad this team is!

This x 1000

I’d go all in for Reynolds . Give him a 3 year million dollar a year contract. Tell Brooks he is no longer required and will pay reggies if he doesn’t find another club. We will also have packers money to use. Reynolds knows madge and has worked with him before . We need a half who can kick and can manage our team around.

And just like magic the club is in a bigger mess until we unwind this contract.

The no 1 rule the Tigers need to follow now is not to overpay players near the end of the careers.

Reynolds on 300k is a straight up great buy. Reynolds on 3 million is a club killer.

Dude his goalkicking has to be worth 150 -200 k alone ...500 k for 2 years with a year in our option if he is still playing well

Reynolds would be a good pick up

But if you are then looking at Brooks as a running 5/8 ...Brooks need to find that speed he lost from a couple of years ago and if given the choice between Brooks and Douehi I'd take Douehi

Doueihi needs time at 6. I'd give Brooks and AD the halves roles all season.

If Brooks is our halfback all year we don’t play finals and more then likely will get our first wooden spoon.

He has been there previously and we haven't gotten the spoon. I think our team is looking stronger.

All you are doing is stating this is the worst team we've had in years and I personally don't see that.

Can you show me where I’ve stated this is the worst team we’ve had in years? I actually think this is the strongest roster we have had in ages. Players like Laurie, Douie, talau, bore, Stefano and the simpkins get me very excited.

Our achiles heel is our halfback and there are no more excuses. I don’t hate him but he has run out of excuses. No Farah to blame, no Benji to blame and we finally have a decent forward pack. When expert halves like fitlerand John’s are telling us that Brooks kicking game is killing us and leading to these second half blow outs because of the field position we keep feeding our opponents then I’m happy to listen to them. Time to move on otherwise we will be fighting it out with the bottom four due to not having a proper halfback running our team.


You do realise he’s only played 2 games with no benji and Farah in this new team with A decent forward pack. He’s played 1 game with the new spine, give him time before you go on about all the excuses blah blah. He’s barely had a consistent spine in his career let alone a single coach for a lengthy period.

He obviously had a bad game on sat but so did the whole team. He at least tried. I think we need to give both brooks and douiehi proper time Together. Maybe up to round 10.

If we are looking for halves on the market, I would prefer a gun halfback or young. I agree reynolds is a big risk. Hastings for cheap would be alright, the attacking lock sounds interesting especially the way Connor Watson plays.

I also realise he has played 150 games and I can probably count on one hand the number of games he has won for us. He just doesn’t have it. Time to cut our losses and move on from him.

Lol getting Reynolds now is another Mbye/Reynolds/Packer signing.

Last contract and on the decline.

No thank you.

Mbye wasn't on the decline when we got him. He was killing it at fullback for the Dogs.

He was killing it at fullback for us in 2018 too

Until the last match round 25 of the season 2018 against South’s. It was all downhill from there.
 
Do we really need an aging, injury prone, a one clubman who doesn't want to leave that club just so he can have season or two (Braith, Grub, Craigie, Hill, Hoppa, Field, etc). Like the Roosters, the Bunnies only release players they don't want or are on the decline, and to get him we'd have to pay top dollar, how's the old saying "get em on the up, never on the down".

At the moment on the right contract you'd definitely take him. It'd be like a Tamou signing. Maybe the situation will change during the year. It's not a change for this season anyway.
 
I wonder if Benji’s signing was designed as a bluff to save on Reynolds re-signing?
I honestly can’t see Reynolds going anywhere. There are one club players who sometimes go back to their junior club pre retirement. I think Reynolds is that sort of player, he’s there already. Looked what happened with Alex Johnson? LM is only now on what he was offered 2 seasons ago with chooks. Gagai has offered to take a pay cut to keep Reynolds.

Killing it’s a bit of a stretch, I don’t think Mbye has ever killed it in any game, but you’re right he was playing better back then.

I cant remember Mbye killing it with us or at the Bulldogs. They could not wait to get rid of him and they bent over backwards when they saw us coming.

We were desperate to get him, he was in great form at fullback and we had Lolohea at fullback who refused to get himself fit or put his body on the line.
 
How good is Reynolds kicking game. Short..long..bombs. all executed perfectly... unfortunately our halfback can't execute. His poor execution gases our forwards...

But but he's old and we don't need him according to some people on here. He's an excellent halfback

He is the genuine half we need for a young developing team.

Yes from me .... Unlikely he leaves souths as i think its just his Manager making noise to get the extra year
 
The news on fox is that Reynolds has been approached by Cowboys.

Now, I don't think the Rabbits would let him go, but it would be unforgivable if we didn't make a play for basically the next best halfback going around.

Yep, that sounds like it’ll work out just fine

If we are paying Brooks $750k, Packer $750k, mbye $850k, paying $1m for a rep halfback who has won his team a comp is peanuts.

So your solution to fixing past mistakes is...to do the exact same thing we’ve done in the past?

Reynolds is not even close to worth 1 million

Rep player is a bit of a stretch too. He’s as much of a rep player as Josh Reynolds was when we signed him. Hasn’t played origin since 2016

We haven’t had a decent halfback since prince. It’s the one thing lacking in our team. Brooks needs to go. **We either go on experience with Reynolds or a junior like volkman or whatever his name is.**

Nothing quite like a well researched thought out and informative post.

No I'm not. I'm pretty rubbish actually. But I'd never say to just sign some bloke that I don't even know the name of that's done nothing outside of maybe a decent trial.
 
Why in the world would Reynolds be a top buy.? A good kicking game obviously, but he is not an attacking half, he does not organise the attack, Walker and the hooker do that, he is 30 and injury prone, what a rediculous buy for $700,000 on a 3 or even 2 yr contract. Only Boozer Buzz can make sense out of it !
