    The Rumours Thread

    I have to be honest I don’t care who our next coach is, as long as it’s not Hook. Apart from Bennett you can’t predict who will succeed or not. Many including me thought Griffin would have been a good fit with his focus on youth, defence & discipline, unfortunately he’s been a disaster, we are...

    Yes that’s true. But Fien has a better background than chinless given his playing career & coaching record in our local competitions. Possibly a crafty old halfback like Fien would be able placate Sullivan?

    https://www.zerotackle.com/bennett-secures-former-origin-and-test-star-to-complete-the-team-124505/amp/ I always rated Nathan Fien, good player & a better clubman. Well he’s now off to Redcliffe to assist Bennett after winning 4 comps in the Illawarra. If he’s thought of so highly by Wayne...

    You’d have wonder if promises were made to Hunt regarding Griffin being given every chance to prove himself before a decision is made about his future.

    The point Coops is making is that in his era there was no need make attendance compulsory because all the boys wanted to catch up 🍻 We were regular finalists under Brown & obviously a winner under Bennett which indicates that there was nothing wrong with the club culture back then. First BBQ...

    George Burgess is no loss & Hook probably lost faith in him because he kept getting arrested! Still though it was a depressing article, rival fans must be laughing at us, we’ve become a joke.

    New recruits for 2023

    So Musgrove is a swap for Georgie Boy so we are still at least 3 players short of a top 30 plus additional development players. I’m not sure what Treigh Stewart’s current status is but I’d like to see him brought up, he could potentially be better than both Ramsey & Sloan.

    I wish Hunt had a ‘if Hook goes, then I go’ clause in his contract. We could spend his $1M on Fifita or Haas.

    The Rumours Thread

    I wasn’t bagging the guy, just pointing out that both Liddle & Musgrove have come from a losing culture. As a comparison, Cronulla paid overs for Finucane last year because of the off-field leadership he brings. Personally I’m tired of Hook’s Moneyball/dumpster diving approach with...

    I agree with the other posts, all in all it’s been a good news day but the fact we are signing Tiger rejects doesn’t in-still much confidence. We need players from a winning culture to help out our off-field issues.

    Hardly a marquee signing but Musgrove goes ‘ok’ he’ll fit in well with the other plodders. Initially I was very hopeful about Burgess but given his repeated off field issues I’m happy to see him go.

    Saint Des ??

    That theory has a lot of logic to it, Bellamy will be moving on & Des is the best available replacement. But having said that I think Melbourne are on the way down, they’ve just gone all in on Munster so unless they cheat the Cap again they will not have the money for top 4 team.

    Saint Des ??

    https://amp.abc.net.au/article/101531314 Now it’s official Des has been sacked at Manly if our great & mighty club doesn’t pull out all the stops to sign him we may as well just take 2023 off in protest. I’m happy if he wants to start fresh in 2024, I’m sure he’ll need a break from the game...

    Losing more of our young guns.

    Total beat up. But I do hate the RL media constantly putting the slipper in at every opportunity. Remember last year it was family heritage names like Wishart & Rodwell leaving, no disrespect but the only players I’m aware of losing that have done anything are Saab, Schoupp & perhaps Schiller...

    Rod McGregor - Men of League

    Sad story about Rod McGregor, he was a gun back in the day. Worth the read. https://amp.nine.com.au/article/4fda4de7-a86b-4964-b331-8ebb6d8463ab

    New recruits for 2023

    We haven’t signed anyone yet, it’s either a salary cap issue or we haven’t been able to attract anyone yet. 2023 is going to suck

    Aren’t bin chickens a pest? If you actually went to a game you’d know how silly your post was. But hey! It’s was only your 15th post.
