Rumours and Stuff

Several posts around that suggest we are signing Jack Bird to a 2 year deal. FMD , surely not, that would be the final nail in the coffin of R&R and their ability to build a roster annd identify recruits.

Gee i cant wait for a few on here to pluck out certain stats to justify the signing.

Unless it’s a nsw cup contract, that is ridiculous

I think you are being over cautious and the greatest thread ever created must stay.

yes, we are cautious and your thread is in no danger as it will be moderated like any other thread

saying someone is on the shit list is no big deal

 

[oldmancraigy]

by all means, feel free to post a legal definition and see if it changes anything

I thought I already replied along those lines originally, specifically about what I perceived in Avengers line of discussion.

Indeed. I just can’t see it though.

what you perceive may not be the legal definition, and the word "perceive" is very relevant here

Apparently Lomax as considering 360 rugby.

If he is only on 650 a season I would be against letting him go mainly because we have no other options..

 

[eels_fan]

Zero chance we are releasing him. We’ve got him for a steal, despite what he’s thrown up post-origin he’s the Kangaroo’s winger.

unless he has some beef with Ryles and isn’t putting in at training etc, then I doubt he’s going anywhere

I feel like you’ve said indentical things about several rumoured signings that never eventuated.
Final nail? For you, you’d have to exhume their now putrefied coffins, build new coffins and transfer whatever remains of their worm-eaten carcasses then hammer in all the other nails before you’d be able to deal their final nail

With tongue in cheek

Obviously the plan is to release Lomax to create funds and space for Jack Bird, how cunning is our R&R

well, as long as some think they are doing well as you may do, perhaps I am wrong, don’t think so. Would like them to do a whole lot better, yet to be convinced they will.

The rumour is across social media, not that I’ve heard it personally, but who knows given our past record.

 

[The Predictor]

I reckon fans are starting to. We have had some low crowd numbers this year. And if we continue to roll out a similar side in 2026 those numbers will drop further.

Hope so

Are we keeping Walker for 2026? Maybe he wants to head to the UK next year and are going to replace him with Bird?
If not it doesn't seem like a positive signing

Well protesting against the club gets you some pretty cushy privileges

Like the Talking Parra Plodcast.

Shitbagged Club Management for Months on there Podcast wanted fans to walk out of a game at a certain time.

There reward this year is they now get a free Pass to club events, access that some fans dont get.

And all of sudden they now have some cushy seats on the corporate side for home games.

That says it all….massive alarm bells if true

 

[Pazza]

Jack bird i imagine would be a bridge player while guys like JFI, Ryda etc develop

But what’s their track record of bad player signings?
They’re certainly a bit too risk adverse I think, and they’ve definitely missed opportunities and perhaps some of the resignings have been bad, I think resignings are a different kettle, but I can’t recall a bad signing. Maybe I’ve scrubbed it from the memory banks.
