    John Morris - 2022 coaching alternative

    when players sign for a club do they say 'I really wanted to join club X because the CEO /Football Manager / Chairperson is such a good bloke? The buck stops with Madge IMO. That said I don't have a lot of time for Pascoe either and think he should be moved on also.

    John Morris - 2022 coaching alternative

    What is your take on Madge not being able to sign anyone? is that a real problem or is it just the media stirring the pot?

    John Morris - 2022 coaching alternative

    Putting aside the fact its 10 straight years with no finals, my focus is limited to where we are at right now and what I think we need to do to steady a ship that has gone way off course. There are two key points that I think most fans would agree on: 1. There are some very impressive young...

    Match Discussion: Round 24 vs Penrith @ Moreton Daily Stadium

    It's pleasing that we'll get to see what Madden has got. He has waited patiently for a chance and has met every challenge at reserve grade level. What a shame his first genuine crack comes against a full strength Penrith side. He's going to have Kikau coming at him all night. Is it fair to say...

    Match Discussion: Round 24 vs Penrith @ Moreton Daily Stadium

    I hope for Madden at 6 Nofa at 1 Cini in the centres Mbye & Chee Kam left right out There is no point playing anyone who is not going to be with us next year. Blood other guys who are looking for a shot In saying that - I predict no major changes other than those injury enforced.

    Madge The Myth ?

    He was slammed from pillar to post by the Broncos players and he oversaw some terrible contracts eg Matt Lodge through his connection to Isaac Moses. No way.

    Madge The Myth ?

    Good post. I don't think we get that level of honesty you talk about from Madge and that is a serious concern. I will defend Madge for inheriting shit contracts (Packer, Mbye, Matulino & Reynolds) but I cannot stomach the players that he himself has signed. BJ Leilua and Roberts have been...

    Match Discussion: Round 22 vs North Qld @ Queensland Country Bank Stadium

    I fear you are right but I hope you are wrong. Roberts has done nothing this year. I don't care how good value a deal he is on if we take up the option on him we are stupid.

    MONDAY JULY 19th

    if the team was winning we'd all be saying 'how good is this?' The reality is that the club is not going to approve any game plans being discussed as part of the documentary so the pre & pist game flare ups is all we are going to see.

    WT’s Pathways

    if these pathways were being taken seriously we'd know who our development players for next year are already. We've seen Mavoni walk out the door this week. I look forward to hearing that someone talented like Logen Dillon is signed up elswhere soon. :(

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Ah sorry you were clear, I just mis-read. The data doesnt make it any clearer other than to show we are shit both with and without Brooks! The only thing I think we can all be sure on is that there is nobody talking on field to provide leadership of any kind. That is generally the halfback but...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    He's about as big as Junior Pauga which doesnt give me a lot of confidence but I was also skeptical of Sam Burgess making it at NRL level before he came over.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I realy like this suggestion but I don't see Madge as having enough smarts to get it going. Our attack is straight out woeful at the moment. I cannot see any evidence of a plan from week to week. There are no go to set plays which you can see in most sides.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    thanks for running the numbers. It I read it correct the win/loss is about the same whether playing with or with out Brooks at around 41%. The thing that surprised me is that he has been vary durable. He has only missed a dozen or so games since debut. I can think of a hamstring injury 2-3...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    It is interesting to at least think about WT potential fortunes without Brooks in the side. I have personally always defended him but I heard someone say on radio or TV recently that 'Brooks is not the sort of player who would put the team up on his shoulders in the dying stages and carry them...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I think the timing of the article is interesting - we're in the first week of August. Players would have received their last payment on 1 August for the final 3 months of the contract year. Eg. Paid on August 1 for August, Sept, Oct. With that said, I think WT might have topped up Mbye's last...

    Match Discussion: Round 20 vs Warriors @ Suncorp Stadium

    Twitter says Mbye is going to be named in the centres. Bizarre The team selections are abysmal. If junior pauga is on a train and trial contract and the season is over then there is no harm in playing him for another 6 games to confirm whether he is up to it. The early signs suggest he is a bit...

    Match Discussion: Round 20 vs Warriors @ Suncorp Stadium

    I'll put a line through Maguire as a coach if he does not pick Shawn Blore to start this week. I actually predict that Joffa gets named to fill Garner's spot despite the fact he was was shown up big time last week in defence. There was one Manly try where Joe didnt move up and the commentators...

    Supposed to be an update on Mbye to the dragons in the Daily Telepgraph today if anyone can get to it behind the paywall?
