He's not a bad guy deep down and a bit of a desperate merkin which is evident because he supports the same team as all of us, but I just need to remind him when he's being mischievous.
Fortunately I have no desire in delving into his psyche, I judge him on how he conducts himself on this site, will go no further than that, safe to say I find him highly offensive on multiple levels, but I’m guessing a couple of his minions are the only acquaintances he may have, hence being on here 20 yrs give or take…..I won’t b wasting anymore breath on the troll !!!!

Well no i don't blame him and competing with Brisbane is impossible really on a TPA level for most Sydney clubs.

I still reckon our front office ain't doing enough with big corporates in Parramatta and figured out a system yet that clubs like Roosters, Broncos have setup to facilitate TPAs for players at arms length with business lined up ready to go.

Like we have the 2nd biggest CBD in Sydney for goodness sake and big business are moving into Parramatta. With a world class stadium one of the best in the game.
We are still light years from competing with the top clubs.

We've got money. We just don't have the resource of rich fans helping us be dodgy with 'arms length' TPAs.
Source??? Our club has no wealthy fans willing to help with TPA's ?? Again spouting your BS opinions as fact.

This coming from the bloke who has barely been right about anything. The forum walking contradiction.

Must’ve just been coincidence
Talagi was as good as gone in March 2024 and the reason was a combination of BA not having a clue as to how to play him and Dylan Brown blocking his pathway.

When BA was sacked he was already halfway out the door because he and his management were completely frustrated by a coach that they didn’t think could develop him and they had no faith in the club.

For balance, we must remember that it was the same management that didn’t want Galvin coached by Benji. But I can tell you that Blaize did not want BA coaching him.

Mitchell had the same management but had a personal connection with BA - yet even Mitchell has since conceded privately and somewhat publicly that there was something missing under BA

Pou will disagree but these are not my opinions, these are things I have been told by people extremely close to it, so it matters not a jot what bullshit Pou spins.

On pezet, I think the players themselves aren’t sure but they trust Ryles.

He is obviously better than any of our other options at 6. What's so hard to understand about that? His superior ability more than makes up for any intangible 'combinations'. I mean, if combinations are so important, why didn't the Broncos bring him in for 2026?
I’m not really seeing a strong ‘combination’ with this post and the post it quoted but obviously Brisbane couldn’t afford him for next year because they currently have 3 premiership winning Origin halves.

He was on 650k at the Storm and played 18 games, he isn't coming for a pay cut. I fail to see how we got him cheap. More BS and spin. We offered a multi year deal and anything is is PR spin to try and save face. We got cucked, embarrassingly so.
If he was on 650 at Scum then he analed them.

Till Pezet activated his get out clause. Then they offered 3 years. Then Pezet chose Brisbane.


But Anasta followed up by, he wasn't sure why anyone was upset as that was the plan and the only change was instead of going back to the Storm he is going to the Broncos.

If we threw 3 years at him in that 1 weeks window between him activating his release and the Broncos jumping on them it makes the club look stupid especially when they keep saying we are going to prioritise our juniors...

If we had these 'genuine' TPA providers, why did we get busted paying people to redirect funds to players in 2016? Where were the wealthy fans doing it behind the scenes on our behalf?

So all the players we missed out on (including Galvin) are because of BA but all the ones we signed are because of Ryles? Do you read your shit before you hit post?
