Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and even more Crap XXI

Pauli means the 'academy' is shit hey? The whole point of the 'academy' is to bring in players with potential (like Tanginoa, Pauli, Radradra and Moeroa) and keep the ones we want (like Radradra and Moeroa). It's working so far. We also had a bunch of 'academy' products carving up for Wenty today.

it's working, we're equal last !

Pauli will be perfectly tuned and ready for the NRL in 2016.He is a great achievement from the Academy. We are seeing Pauli at about 60%.Next year he will be at 80% and the following 100%. Too bad he will be playing at the tigers.

If people think Tepai is a huge talent then they should not forget Pauli.He is equally as good a talent. So he doesnt hit hard in defense. You have a guy like foran putting him one on one and its a try from 10mtrs out every day of the week.

How do you know?

How is Pauli a future star? And what good is a future star when we need good first graders right now? Beau Scott is a current Origin player.

Before worrying about buying/keeping match winners you need to make sure you have a team full of blokes who won't lose you the game. Pauli is still one such player.

Beau Scott will probably be a good signing - 188 first grade games. But Whatmough (almost 300 games) was always a stupid signing.

We had Chris Sandow and Joseph Paulo carving up (as they should).

A "rebuilding" process takes at least 3 to 4 years. Things are looking good; running an NRL business is very complex and sometimes a bit of luck plays a big part. We're building a solid foundation......try to look at the big picture, rather than just today's (disappointing) result.

Today's performance was actually pretty good if you look at the last 5 1/2 seasons. But it's simply not good enough if you have genuine aspirations to be a Top 8 team.

This club has "rebuit" 3 times in that time. Why is this time going to be any different?

Sandow plays we win 13+

Sandow plays we win 13+

You're probably right. To be honest I found the decision mystifying. I still don't get it.

Yeah we're not far from where we want to be...........

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Sandow plays we win 13+

It would have to have been 46-32.

Have we been rebuilding for 29 years? Thats a long plan. In what way are things looking good? Foran and Scott next year? Quality players but those two won't be enough to dig us out of our hole.

People's frustrations lead to hysteria, which lead to knee jerk reactions by the voting members. That's why we're in this f**king mess to start with.

True.

But then, not winning anything for there decades brings that out of people.
