Rumours and Stuff

[Glenneel]

After this year Moses' level of importance to the Parramatta side decreases.

The issue is with his new deal; financially he will be getting more (of our cap share) with a declining value as a contributor to the success of the team. This reduction in value will continue for the duration of his next contract.

Moses' kicking game accounts for a large chunk of his skillset that contributes positively to the team week in week out. As his kicking game decreases with age; the less positive impact he will have.

Do we really want to be investing more $$$ into a depreciating asset?

Offsetting that is better judgement, better team management and experience in general producing a better all round player. and

Do you really need a 7 when you have Burton? You just need a kicking game. The Storm and Sharks went alright with two five-eighths. Maybe because it adds up to ten-eighths, which is one-and-a-quarter.

So if we stacked our backline with forwards, we'd be laughing!

 

[lingard]

Hows Paul Carige these days? Us bulldog fans still love him.

Paul Caige was just a victim of Jason Smith's inability to shut the game down while we were cruising.

 

[Glenneel]

That’s been happening to me for over 20 years

Trouble is you plateaued at an extremely low level and the only way is up but at your age up is impossible.

 

[Glenneel]

You have the sums all wrong. I expect better from you.
I'm not angry about your work, just disappointed.


1/2 to 5/8 to 3/4 to Full.

The playmaker traditionally is the lower fraction. So the idea is to have a lower total number for greater playmaking.
That is why the traditional running 5/8 role was replaced with the desire for a second half (split halves) and the traditional backup fullback plays more like a 5/8 (second receiver)

A team with two 5/8s and a backup style fullback is 2 and a quarter.
That is poor.
The goal is two halves and a 5/8, or 1 and 5/8s.

Many teams get stuck with two 5/8s and a half. Some lucky teams get to three halves.

Who are you? f**kin' Einstein?

My doggies are soooo f**ked for a 7. Moses gone, we are screwed. f**k Kyle Flanagan for this tho. Good job on fighting Gus off, not many can do it.

Was he ever fighting Gus off or just milking parra for every cent he could.it worked

What does age have to do with kicking????

Sad but true

 

[Black Panther]

What do you mean "again"?

We came up against the best club side in a decade - nobody gave us a chance in hell.

Hardly choking to lose to Penrith.

Yeah, thats a fair call mate. Didn’t look at it that way.

I wouldn't believe media talk. My mail was he was never leaving and just sorting out what's a fair deal. But a mate does reckon he was seen with Gus and Cameron. Who knows what is true.
Gus also has a reputation of being lose with the axe. You'd imagine players would be slightly wary of him and his 5yr deals.

 

[hindy111]

Interesting the Dogs want to try Perham at Fullback. I felt he should of been used as a utility here in NRL.
They must see something in him. I felt he is a bit loose and will make costly errors at bad times. Unsure his defense will be good enough either. Attack wise he will be dangerous

Gus will never approach a player if he genuinely believes that player won’t leave his current club.

Bench utilities need to be able to defend in the forwards or what's the f**king point of them? To give one of the backs a rest?

Yeah we already had a utility. So Hayze was never a chance.

He did a solid job for us last season on the wing considering he wasn't a winger. He didn't drop a crucial bomb from memory. Suaalii making him step ladder in magic round wasn't hayze fault just Suaalii a special talent.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

A special talent or just tall? I've seen Jason Saab take bombs over shorter players as well.

Okonbour for my bulldogs has as well and he’s shit.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

And I'm not saying Suaalii isn't a special talent. Just that jumping over Hayze Perham doesn't prove anything. I'm deadset 5'3" and I reckon I could out jump him.
