Predicted Rnd 1 team 2025

[hineyrulz]

Only amateur operations agree to player options, imo...

It’s what the smart clubs do ffs!!

 

[hineyrulz]

He needs to be educated

Need a good Pousplaining!!!

 

[JokerEel]

I just shake my head

Matt Cameron was one of ours and now he is down the road at Penrith as one of the key off-field cogs in the greatest Rugby League Dynasty since the 1960s by basically building Penrith from the ground up off the blueprint he learnt of Brian Smith in the early 2000s.

He admitted in the leadup to the 2022 GF that Penrith are what they wanted to do at Parramatta.

While in comparison we have a Ron Massey cup like amateur operator in MON.

Slow, reactive & loves a PO.

The one thing that rung out was he said the Panthers have a good relationship with the player Managers..

They also tell it straight to the players and managers this is how much we believe you are worth that's it if you get better somewhere else good luck you should take it.

Isn’t that what Mark O’Neill has been criticised for doing?

I think Mark says "We will pay you this much, but also, here are 15 player options"

They have leverage.... we have POs

Thank Roy and Bentley for letting him go.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Thank Roy and Bentley for letting him go.

Ill be thanking Roy by telling every leagues club member to not vote for him or his clowns at this upcoming EGM.

Go screw yourself Spags.

Letting Cameron go was, in hindsight, the release of what would have probably ended up being our biggest "resource" in Pouspeak.

Cameron,

Andrew Hill,

meh the mind boggles at the self-inflicted harm we did to ourselves, all because Roy couldn't get his kids into the dressing rooms at the end of the 2008 season but Ovo got to escort the RMC house kids in.

And the pettiness continues.

 

[The Colonel]

Aaron Warburton, Bulldogs CEO, is another one that the club had brought through who has gone on to better and brighter things....

 

[MarkInTheStands]

And the pettiness continues.

That’s what annoys me. For all their foibles the plumber and team called off the full-throated investigation of the membership scandal for the good of the club.

Now Roy complains he was lashed with a feather.

I would have said the same about Zaps till the Cronulla thing and the Marconi thing. . .

No he tried to underpay players

Did we let Cameron go or was he caught up in the shit at the club when DA was flicked MC went to the Tigers to assist JT in 14


*Ffs that's what you wrote!

 

[T.S Quint]

Good.
If you don’t try then you never will.

 

[the phantom menace]

Well, with Jack Williams now named in Ryles leadership group, I guess that means he's a definite in the 17, and probably in the starting 13 as an edge forward.

Good to see Hopgood recognised in leadership group too, and I'm still of the view Paulo is best coming on after 20mins). Interesting times.

First choice team?
1. Iongi
2. Simonssen (aiming for Round 1-3 return from injury, then Addo-Carr now returns Round 3)
3. Penisini
4. Lomax
5. Russell (or possibly Simonssen after Addo-Carr returns)
6. Brown
7. Moses (c)
8. Ofahengaue
9. Hands
10. Matterson
11. Williams
12. Tuilagi
13. Hopgood (less than usual minutes, returning from injury)

14. Cartwright
15. Lane (middle rotation)
16. Paulo
17. Moretti

18. Lussick (I guess)
19. Tago (I guess while we're missing some backliners, then Simonssen/Russell)
20. Greig (I guess, or whoever is impressing the most of the other forwards)

 

[Obscene Assassin]

1. Iongi
2. Samrani
3. Lomax
4. Penisini
5. Russell
6. Brown
7. Moses
8. Paulo
9. Hands
10. Williams
11. Guymer
12. Tuilagi
13. Hopgood
14. Papali'i
15. Matterson
16. Ofahengaue
17. Moretti

 

[Lemon Squash]

I’ve heard Simonssen is confident round 1 but they may not risk him.
