Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and General Drivel XV

f**k off Poupou!

Casper is right. The only good thing that SK, RS and 3P did between them was grab Hoppa, Peats, Semi, Norman, sandow, Tonga, Mossop, Edwards, Ma'u and Lussick and retain Jnr Paulo, Pauli, Mannah, Hayne, Terepo, Allgood and Sio.

We didn't need any of the SK, RS or 3P signings and retention last night apart from some of the above so they obviously ruined our club.

Agreed Casper. 3P set the ball in motion when they recognised we needed to bring in someone to build a better development structure. Kearney, Arthur and Nolan were a great group of signings, and they established the 'academy' we had lacked for so many years.

This gave Stuart and Nolan the foundation for the expensive key signings (Peats and Norman, plus Hopoate signed by Kearney) to come into the side. Our outstanding NYC squad (#'academy') gives us options - and therefore a position of strength - for our contract negotiations going forward. Recruitment/retention will be a lot easier from here compared with the constraints faced by Anderson and Kearney in previous years.

The great thing is that everyone in the club can share in the glory of what has been rebuilt. Those of us with the ability to look at the big picture will remember 3P well for what they set in motion.

Great post, Casper.

Agreed but we must continue hanging shit on these f**kwits.... :lol::lol::lol:

peats was ricky's second choice though hey .... papalli fell through .... who knows what he was planning to do for a dummy half

SK and Ricky got some things right .... but they were f**king hopeless head coaches - they couldn't motivate a f**kin koala to sleep ffs

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

It might seem obvious, but can you imagine how well we'd be going if we'd voted for 4P, or even 7P?

[Maroubra Eel]

Our squad has always been fine. But finally we have a decent coach.

 

[Parraren]

We still need to recruit smartly if we want to win a premiership in the next few years I reckon.

Having a good bunch of juniors and being near the top half of the table just means we won't have to pay overs for the ones we want.

 

[Parraren]

Oh and I reckon Peats is now on par with Hayne in terms of 'keep at all costs' for the spine.

Our 1 & 9 are on par with the best in the comp.

Umm Papali wasn't the first choice dummy half though. Robey from the UK was.

 

[Casper The Ghost]

I'm looking forward to Peats giving it to Innis - even a right uppercut to the chin would do in a srum if he can get away with it.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

This is Ricky's side. Looking good so far Ricky. You can't judge a coach in his first year. Poupou can explain.

Why are we defending SK, RS AND 3P when we have just had our best start to a season since when? 2007? None of those merkins are here!

Because Ricky built this side.
