    OK. I give up. I'm out of here.

    In what context?

    Or didn't like not being allowed to shoot the native population of southern Africa anymore.

    Can you give me an example of his 'smashing people with his bullshit passive agressive approach'? He's argumentative, and often just for the fun of it it seems. He doesn't go out of his way to 'play the man' (at least in my observations).

    Good luck to you. Should be a good game. I'll be staggering around Braddon at about that time.

    and Raiders v Dogs sold out. No discounts.

    Those are fair points, but I don't think we are anywhere near in as bad a position as the Raiders have found themselves in. We made the playoffs 5 out of 7 seasons from 2017-2023, came last once in that time and missed narrowly the other. We came last in 2024 but had key players out for a long...

    Well, it the price is irrelevant, that makes perfect sense. But the price here is potentially considerable. I'm not worried his ability in offense or defense.....he's great. It's what is going on between the ears that concerns me. If it was only for the current year it would be a no brainer, as...

    That's not the only option though is it? If the choice is Fifita or don't replace our existing players....sure....but that is not the situation we are in. There are (or will be) other players become available, and signing Fifita on a very large contract reduces your budget for others...

    For the right price sure. But he's going to come with a price tag that takes a big chunk out of your budget for other new players. I'm all for spending 800k + on a backrower. But I'd think more than twice about spending that on a player with his history of being a sook. It would seem to be the...

    The risk is that we pay that and then after a while he behaves like a big fat baby when he doesn't get his way and we have a very expensive reserve grader.

    He has some promise as a second-rower, but he's probably not quite as good as Fifita yet.

    Depends which Fifita.....

    I think the Chairman has retired.
