[BossleyPanther]

SOS sucks look elsewhere

Clifford?

 

[BossleyPanther]

Get rid of the dead wood that have been here for a few yrs and can't crack 1st grade.And the ones that have had a few games of 1st grade and haven't really impressed.Example eisenhuth laurie riki geyer etc

Only off contract on that list that would be somewhat realistic I'd like are Paix, Pearce-Paul, Tevaga and Bullemor.

Afoa unrealistic?

 

[Chins]

Clifford?

Far more talented but not mentally stable

I've always liked Bullemor

 

[Hamstring awareness]

Well Guys, we had Hands and Smith, we didn't need to look for another Hooker, we just chose the wrong ones to keep.

And Egan before that

 

[Hamstring awareness]

Sliding doors moment years ago when Jeremy Marshall King was off-contract. Wouldn't have been on big coin.

Bennett turned him into a very dangerous dummy-half at the Dolphins.

TBF he was already very good when he left the Bulldogs

 

[age.s]

Clifford?

Sucks worse than SOS.

 

[age.s]

TBF he was already very good when he left the Bulldogs

Iirc he wasn't rated when he signed with the Fins, but really stepped up in the subequent months. Pretty good spot from Skeletor in the end tbf.

Didn’t realise Jenkins was off contract, hopefully the club are addressing that

No love for Davy Moale?

As much of a basket case he is, there's always a part of me that thinks we could be the ones to tame simplest Jack.

Also, someone elsewhere mentioned Israel Leota. Would be a low cost punt. He's young and a real unit.

Id be all for having Hethro back. He used to do some funny shit, I love watching loose units.

Yeah he did show a bit at the end of his tenure there. 2023 I'd call his breakout season though.

 

[BossleyPanther]

I've always liked Bullemor

He is a worker, Ivan type

 

[BossleyPanther]

Sucks worse than SOS.

SOS barks orders during games. He does a good Job during Origin, if Sexton wasn't a week in week out NRL player, I'd go him.

While misremembering is my superpower, from memory he wasn't rated prior to 2022. Started the year improved, but just ok. Signed with the Fins in May. Then played very very well for the rest of the year, and ended up the Dogs best player in a very miserable year. Could be wrong though.

Hes another hooker that blossomed reasonably late, a la Cook. Worth remembering when we have discussions about Sommerton, who's played a similar number of NRL games as Cook had at his age.

I'd prefer Sitaleki Akauola.

 

[Fangs]

And bring back Leilani Latu.

Griffin sure had a lot of loose units in the front row.

 

[Black Panther]

To’a and Bullemore both re signed recently.
