AFB

[bluefox68]

We have a bloody good chance for a Premiership this season.

Love to read this, DS - let’s aim high!!!

 

[bad boy bubby]

Lets be honest here, and at the same time cliched.
We are absolutely in "the window", and we will be for the next few years.
The real challenge will be to be constantly in the said "window" as much as possible.
Do Fitz and his staff have the capability to do this?
I think yes.

 

[2012....Sharks Year]

Sounds like a pretty lame excuse from his manager as to why he didn't hang around after their first win in a month against the Pennies. Surely more too it than that. Not quite sure how he fits into Fitz's team first mentality regardless of how good he it. Will be interesting to see how it pans out.

 

[Weaponhead]

Can't see Fitz going for this. Integrity and loyalty are strong for him and he wouldn't want to be seen condoning bad behaviour or taking short cuts.

He wouldn't but if you read the article it seems that AFB was actually upset with the way he played. That's why he left. He has no difference going on with their team.

I agree with the window comment however I am worried that the window closes 2025. On November 1st this year

Daniel Atkinson, Kade Dykes, Tuku Hau Tapuha, Thomas Hazelton, Royce Hunt, Oregon Kaufusi, William Kennedy, Cameron McInnes, Ronaldo Mulitalo, Briton Nikora, Sam Stonestreet, Braydon Trindall, Teig Wilton

can all talk to other clubs. Yes they can't play for another club until 2026 but there is a tremendous amount of potential disruption. You would assume Hazelton, Kennedy, Ronnie, Nikora and Wilton all get upgrades. You would assume DA, Tuku, Hunt and Stonestreet would want more game time in 2 years. I have NFI what happens with Dykes, Kaufusi, McInnes and Trindall. Yes we have young guys to bring in but I think this core only has 18 months left.

Mooney is the most important man in the shire.

Mooney Fitz Dino and Mace

They will start sorting it out soon, there is a few there I can see them just waiting on.
And also you will see players under contract may leave as well

 

[Frenzy.]

Perhaps we have someone needs to go home to NZ

 

[shadowboxer]

Want to ‘stay in the window’?
Don’t make knee jerk reactions and stick to the plan. Unless the coach thinks otherwise, but he strikes me as one who is about three moves ahead of the rest of us.

 

[Cheese sandwich]

Williams and Iro still unsigned too.

 

[bad boy bubby]

three moves ahead of the rest of us.

"us"?
He's 152 moves ahead of "us" haha

 

[Special K]

FTR I really believe every off contract guy wants to stay and the cap does rise. I just think we have had such good luck with retention the Sharks fan in me thinks it has to break soon. Mooney talks about roster planning 3 years in advance which is why the "thinking about if we go for AFB" line was so laughable that the media believed.

It would be brutal to see some of these guys at other clubs. But the Panthers have lost Burton, Critta, Kikau etc

 

[bad boy bubby]

I just think

Have a beer mate, no thinking needed haha. Moons will take care of it.

 

[Dragon Slayer]

Williams and Iro still unsigned too.

And Kaufusi.

There must be a fair bit of interest from other clubs otherwise you would have thought one of these deals would’ve been done by now.

I'm primed for the hairiest of men if you pry yourself away from real responsibilities.

get a room !

 

[coolumsharkie]

Bit gay, NTTAWWT.

Concerning is the attitude shown for his teamamtes, club, fans etc.

Not very Fitzy like.

 

[shadowboxer]

100%- I’m giving myself too much credit. He’s thinking long down the track, possibly walking the scorched earth post apocalypse, whereas I’m think about what beer I’m drinking tonight… Been a long week
