Molo Dragons Bound 2022

Robbo to Eels

Let’s hope Connor Muhleisen is a gun

Robbo to Eels

Waiting for McGregor to say............"yep we signed that young Robinson fellow from Nth Qld. Seem to remember him from somewhere."

The bloke Robinson couldn’t get out the door quick enough

I’ve leveled my share of criticism at the club for poor recruitment decisions, but JFC. What’s happening at the Cowboys?

Letting go of a young rep prop in Molo for less than they are reportedly paying for Luc?

Add the overs that they’ve paid for The Chad and Val Holmes and their cap is gonna be in serious trouble for a few years.

Maybe we should be seeing what Robson’s thoughts are on his future. Money is gonna be tight at the Cows for upgrades, and a long term 9 that can get dirty in the middle would be useful.

Robson was shopped to the Eels by his manager to replace Mahoney.

Robbo to Eels

I suppose that makes sense with Mahoney going to the dogs.

He’d wanna be careful though. With Rein and Mary at the Eels he might end up in ressies.

Thankyou @dungay dragon . Re Kiko Manu..looks like a specialist left side player...it's good to have depth and people competing for spots. Would have been a cheapy.

Kiko's story reminds me a bit of Jordan Pereira's- both came from NZ originally to Queensland looking for a new opportunity and drifted south. Pereira I think had a Rugby background- both built close to the ground in the strong Islander mould and Kiko's metre gain stats sound similar to Pereira's. Don't know what kind of signing it is but I don't mind it.

A cheap gamble with little downside.

Molo was suspended for 9 weeks for the hit on Ackerman in 2015. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/ar...r-fatally-injured-father-two-cries-court.html

There was a second shoulder charge that an opposition player allegedly said that hit Ackerman when he was down. https://thewest.com.au/news/crime/ackerman-shoulder-charged-by-molo-inquest-ng-s-1744075

I guess with this latest news that Ackerman's mum is seeking damages, it will play on Molo's mind.

Hopefully Molo has learnt his lesson and doesn't use his shoulders in tackles for us.

f**k.

No one wins from this, money does not make PTSD go away.

 

[hewi]

I would think all this would be covered by insurance under the auspices of the rugby league competition he was playing in.

 

[saints4ever]

With all due respect to everyone involved how will money make PTSD go away?

 

[League guru]

No it may not. But I watched this guy play a lot of Intrust Cup and he had a history of shoulder charges. I remember him being pinged for a shoulder charge not long after he came back and thinking he hasn't learnt anything.

I recall the first time I saw a shoulder charge it was at Cumberland oval back in the late 70’s or early 80’s . One of our Dragons had broken clear and was making his way for the try-line when the Eel’s winger John Quayle whacked him with his big bluudy shoulder and dropped the poor sod as if felled by an axe .

It was to me a cheap shot to the extreme , however even then I thought that this is the type of thing ( I won’t call it a tackle as it is not ) that should be outlawed from the game for good before someone gets seriously hurt by it .

Not for a moment am I suggesting that Molo done no wrong with the Queensland player , but this should had been cleaned up donkeys years ago . Sincerely hope that his has changed his ways for the better . I also hope that his mother and family are able to recover from their huge loss .

Unfortunately she hasn't & not ever hearing from Molo has not done anything to ease her pain.

Not make it go away but theres a lot of bills that go with ptsd territory. Money to pay for them is one less stress.

It’s a very sad situation slippery and I can only repeat what I said in my earlier post that the woman’s and her family’s suffering may ease somewhat .

Perhaps a discreet phone call but officially giving one make invoke some legal complications ?
