Not sure how he sacked Taylor, when he wasn't even at the club at that stage? As for Potter, you have proof of this of course? It is my understanding that Potter's contract had expired and it wasn't renewed.
If you have facts (not rumours) of Farah's time with us, please share them.
It's also my opinion that he is past his best as a player
Regardless of what people think of Farah I wouldn’t go near him now that our season is over.Cleary ought to perservere with Liddle as he’s easily our only decent hooker in the club.Also Cleary shouldn’t ever allow Taylor near dummy half again.Don’t worry, Mario. These guys reckon Rob will carry us to the semis like all those times he did when he was here in the past lol.... Liddle is the man for the job and should be in the side now not plowing the paddocks in reserves.
Still Need a decent halfback more than anything.
Cleary can’t afford to make anymore recruitment blunders & needs to find players who will b assets next season & beyond which is another reason I’d forego bringing the egomaniac back albeit for the remainder of ‘18.
Well surely we won't be seeing McIlwrick again. Absolutely woeful.
Liddle out there on one leg, or ET are far better options.
Cleary is not without blame re this current farce @ Concord.Who in their right mind would sign Reynolds Packer Mbye on 4 ur deals on big money & matulino & taylor on 3 yr contracts on big money.None of these players have ever been or will ever be considered excellent players.Its bloody insane the contracts they were handed & was always fraught.The repercussions r huge re succession planning & trying to get this club to b competitive over the next few yrs coz it creates a predicament where a good chunk of our cap is tied up with non-performers/under achievers & hence restricts us from recruiting the necessary players to rectify the enormous deficiencies in our squad.The problem is that he knows this, he has stated this. He acknowledges the reason why most decent players won’t come here is because we are/were a shambles behind the scenes in regard to facilities.
It doesn’t help when boot heads like Anasta go on tv and publicly trash the joint because he had to pay for a bottle of gatorade.
You have to remember that teams like Melbourne and Roosters are two injuries away from wooden spoon territory as evidenced 2 or 3 years ago when the roosters had JWH and Pearce out for most of the year.

The last 9 rounds lame efforts by this squad in particular the appalling goal line defence, the impotent attack & the illogical selections are a blight on clearys coaching & along with the insane contracts issued on his watch give me no confidence in this smug halfwit being able to resurrect this one dimensional sub standard rabble.
Won’t ever b needing razor blades.Just calling it the way I see it although I so hope I’m wrong.Settle down, no need to reach for the razor blades yet.
When we signed Reynolds, and subsequently Packer & Matulino we absolutely NEEDED to make a few signings because our team was falling apart due to The Diminutive Three imploding the joint.
Of course, we had to make the terms of the contracts longer to make it appealing for players to come here, so their futures are more settled.
All signings were a bit of a gamble, but it had to be done. It's not like we had any other options.

Funny how the wheels fell off when he went off though, ET went straight back in to throwing passes behind the runner and generally taking poor options at DH. The only thing he offers at hooker is his defensive workrate.
Agreed, but MM's missed tackle for their try in the first half was dismal. Assume he got hooked because of that never to return? At least ET can defend.
Funny how we got carved up due to one player on the opposition, a dummy half. Imagine if we had one of those...
Without them we would of went into the season with players like Edwards and Lovett as our starting players. I know which I would prefer but each to their own I Guess.Cleary is not without blame re this current farce @ Concord.Who in their right mind would sign Reynolds Packer Mbye on 4 ur deals on big money & matulino & taylor on 3 yr contracts on big money.None of these players have ever been or will ever be considered excellent players.Its bloody insane the contracts they were handed & was always fraught.The repercussions r huge re succession planning & trying to get this club to b competitive over the next few yrs coz it creates a predicament where a good chunk of our cap is tied up with non-performers/under achievers & hence restricts us from recruiting the necessary players to rectify the enormous deficiencies in our squad.

I think no Marshal or Reynolds, Brooks still not a game manager.No, he did his ankle. And yeah it was a poor miss. Let's not forget ET grappling Peptide Paul's forearm as he crashed over the line last week with two other blokes hanging off him as well, was just as comical IMO.
I don't know what it is with us and not being able to capitalise against 12 men. They were f**king dreadful when Austin was off.
