Is Jahrome our man ?
The Storm I think won't let him go without a fight.Is Jahrome our man ?
Blame Cookie for that . .... I still think he should be given another go ........In this case he was off contract. If only we'd signed Ilias to such a short deal.
I sincerely hope so.Is Jahrome our man ?
Possibly, they do have pezet ready to step up when hughes goes.Is Jahrome our man ?
It makes sense to me.That might be nice and possm would be happy with that, wouldn't you possm?
And as possm has been saying, we need a marquee prop forward as well - don't forget about that Flanno. One big, hard, tough no nonsense prop forward please sir.
People can’t seriously believe that we’d even be a minuscule of hope to sign Hughes. PleeeaassssseeeeeThere is no way we will get Hughes. He would never leave Melbourne. Especially to sign with our mess of a club.
Let's face it. Our options are limited. We will only be able to land someone old and desperate or really young and ambitious who is looking for minutes.
Player-coach role like the old daysMaybe Willie Peters- as halfback…?
I read an interview with Jack recently and was very impressed, he said that everything he does these days he relates it back to his football and how it will affect his performance. He actually said that he was very professional and from anyone else it may have sounded like a boast, but he was obviously sincere. Genuinely does appear he has learnt a lot from what happened.So JDB was the easy one to move. But I do believe there’s an element of wanting to clean up our PR and also not wanting his name against any records for the club. It’s sad as I think he regrets it but mud sticks. Noting our new CEO said in latest interview “ JDB has been good to the club and the club has also been good to JDB”. Says it all.
Man of Steel old WillieMaybe Willie Peters- as halfback…?
Not sure I would classify Douhie as a marquee signing..I don't think it will be DCE.
I don't think it will be Hughes, either.
I think we'll lean more towards an AD from the Tigers or SS from the Roosters.
I hope it isn’t with us but George Williams this week announced he is set to return to the NRLNot sure I would classify Douhie as a marquee signing..
I agree David Dragon. It was brutal but makes sense.In the Dragon Den Podcast, Tim Watsford highlighted that one important thing that he wants to see at the Dragons is improvement in the culture of the Club. Whether or not that means that while JDB has been good to the club and the club good to him, the club possibly doesn't see JDB fitting in with the culture they want to build for the future, maybe? and as JDB's contract ends at the end of this year, easy to just not renew it - sadly but from a business point of view, it would be necessary.
JDB did bring a lot of dramas to the club from late 2018 - 2021 and who knows, because of his actions and him still being kept at the Dragons, might have had a bearing on securing some "better" signings?!!
I really like Douiehi, but wondering if he is marquee? Sandon would be so goodI don't think it will be DCE.
I don't think it will be Hughes, either.
I think we'll lean more towards an AD from the Tigers or SS from the Roosters.
To be honest i wish we got him over Illias now at worst could play him at centre for SuliNot sure I would classify Douhie as a marquee signing..
