My feelings exactly, I dont go out of my way to dislike Parra, but their supporters talk sooooo much SH*T!! That makes me dislike the club! They tried to poach Menzies from Manly for more money than Manly could offer at the time, but he didn't want to go... Its not Manly's fault they could offer a carrot to a Parramatta player and they'd jump at the chance to leave.. Any player could just say 'No thanks i'm happy where I am.'
Eric Grothe, Timana Tahu and Feleti Mateo chose Parra over Manly, it's not all one way traffic you know, ED may have a different take on it but to me it's not about the players we've lost to you guys, it's about the reaction coming from your supporters ragaring a simple prediction I made regarding your club.
what's gone adrift was my comment in relation to this...
Smart recruitment & retention. He did us a great service, but he is getting on and we need to bring in some younger players like Tony Williams plus some upgrades. Same with Monas, we cut him loose as he was apparantly on $250k, used the funds elswhere.
and I said...
you could be correct...;-)
that could be one of the reasons why imo you'll never never lose a player you want a keep in the future.
