Rumours and Stuff

I actually think he is probably what we need in a 6 to pair with Moses. A biggish body, decent runner of the ball with a bit of footwork and can kick.

Will he win us a comp? Or a spoon? To go with his 3 other spoons.

difference between the Bulldogs and us. They used to sign this type of shit. They changed management and now they know what is required to win a comp. And we’ve swapped coming last and getting excited about signing shit players that will win us spoons.

it’s like a nightmare that won’t end.

With the way our club is operated I expect that by the time we actually have an even semi decent team around Moses again it'll be when he is 40 years old.

Isaac doesn't have his top players in shit clubs for long. I wouldn't expect Moses to see out his contract if we remain near the bottom of the ladder.

What do you mean? I have it on good authority that we have got it so right!

Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised to see the DT start up the annual Moses to the Roosters articles before the start of next season.

He’s mr invisible as well, but MON closes deals and is responsible for selling the club, which doesn’t seem to have been done well. We hired a list manager who was mr who, when we needed someone with a track record. Doesn’t seem we do hiring that well in that area compared to our peers.

For some reason you defend an area which is faitly obviously not as good as we see most other clubs. I guess it’s for pure arguments sake, surely not because you believe it .

I think our recruiting has been good for this year and I'm expecting it to be good for next year as well. We're not losing because of our recruitment; we're losing because a large chunk of our salary cap has been on the sidelines or in reserve grade. That's Ryles' call, but it's not Mark O'Neill's fault. The guys not performing, or constantly injured, or not playing at all, were all playing well when they were re-signed. It's not the general manager's fault they have declined.

Who's fault is it?

 

[Poupou Escobar]

It’s purely a troll

If people thought MON was killing it, poubot would be destroying him in this forum

I would indeed, because you have no proof of his influence on results, and the results are the only evidence you have. The fact we're losing doesn't prove you're right about anything you've been whinging about. I could just as easily say it's all Ryles' fault.

The fact is we don't know whose fault it is that so many of our players are underperforming or constantly injured. So the smart move is to keep your criticism to yourself. Stop pretending you know everything going on behind the scenes, and who is to blame. You obviously don't know.

- same as penisini

I've said many times that he is having his worst ever season. Who to blame? Occam's Razor says the player should take some responsibility. But of course you already have a scapegoat in mind.

but he has to take the opposite view to the majority, it makes him feel smart and unique - makes you wonder how sad and lonely he must feel in real life to attempt fulfilment through false superiority on the internet.

Yeah we should all be ashamed of feeling sad and lonely now. ffs

Physical and dominant is not the Mon and Jim way. We sit in the Morgan Harper areas

The Warriors also signed Morgan Harper.

Who ever is his manager should be our head of football can sell ice to Eskimos

 

[Poupou Escobar]

As I thought, 2024 was the worst year of his career defensively.

What a coincidence that he was stuck outside the worst defensive pack in the comp. The decline in his tackle effectiveness just shows it's a team game. In an average defensive side (2021-22) he tackled at over 90%

 

[Poupou Escobar]

1) Yes
2) Yes he is doing a poor job maybe 5 people don't think this .

The people who matter don't seem to think so, and they have better information than any of us.

3)Yes it's about good coaching and having a plan. This shouldn't be hard to understand.

It's about scouting and recruitment, which all costs money.

Shit clubs are where they can make the most money, since they are more likely to overpay. Unless there's some kind of third party remuneration going on, then all bets are off.

1)Yeah and BA was the head coach last year as well...

2) everything costs money the better people know how to spend it best and use what's available..

I suspect Moses would make as much as what we're going to pay him at the majority of other clubs.

The players? Crazy idea I know...

Those 'better people' sound expensive...

Not with his injury history.

Who signs these players?
