Like Flies to shit Pou was all over it, and let face it the Guymer signing is shit.

The only player we should of been looking at extending atm was Big Sam.

MON and co are absolute failures at every level.
How is the guymer signing shit? Hes a 21 year old whos still developing. Had some okay flashes to end last season. We probably didnt pay all that much either. Its not like we gave him a 6 year 800k deal. 2 years to see if he can crack our regular rotation if he does then we got a steal if not hes not a shit option for depth. His running game needs work but hes decent defender. Honestly a player who would look great in the riff system.

I asked a mate who is close to a player manager and knows the current market well. He reckons JDB is on at least $500k a season. FMD!!!
Isnt it for just one season though? In our situation of rebuilding paying too much is acceptable if it is for 1 season.

He’s an utter plodder, I’ve seen absolutely nothing to show me he’s a first grader. His best game was his first one. Since then he’s been meh.

Saw some random podcast claiming we had trouble containing offloads.
Whilst this might be true, I crunched the numbers and definitely a better effort is needed but we aren't the worst.

What.
With no other interest from other clubs.
I think Saints came in with a late offer to save face.
We don’t know how much other interest there was. But given the lack of NRL players for all the demand from 18 clubs, there’s interest in every player at the right price. JDB was good last year. Ryles just needs to get the best out of him.

We need to spend our cap. If you turn your nose up at every player you won’t fill a squad, which we seem to have done in previous years.
