Rumours and Stuff

Spoke to a player who did re- sign, said initially very difficult as MON had an inflexible position and was surrpised how difficult it made negotiations. Seems Isiah’s manager decided to take the Tigpies offer rather than stuff around, bit of a black eye.

Having said that, Reed and his manager can fornicate elsewhere.
It's better to stick to your system and lose merkins than to pay overs and run into cap trouble.

And it’s looking like we will not be renewing Matterson and Dylan has until mid 2022 to exercise his option. If we don’t extend him I will lose my shit.
I really appreciate the info mate. It’s really interesting to hear these type of tidbits! I still think has DBrown has a lot to prove. I think he has the ability but he needs to show way more than what he has to be considered a huge loss. If he improved his kicking and passing game as a half then it would go a long way to fixing our clunky attack.

Anyone drinking with Avenger would be subject to the same biases as any other dope. Footy staff would be no different. Of course they think they could have gotten him cheaper earlier. They don't need any proof. I'm glad we didn't rush to pay more money to some merkin after half a season of good footy. It shows we aren't desperate, which is what will make us successful in the long run.
What’s your definition of successful? If making the finals consistently is being successful then we have been very successful already.

Ive been a critic of Dylan Brown, but there's something I can't quite put my finger on that makes me want to persist with him for the long term. There's a resilience, calmness and class about him that I think is yet to fulfill its full benefit for us. I think it's coming....

I don't drink with dopes which is why we haven't had a drink together.

Had Xmas drinks with some Parra staff yesterday. Apparently we could have locked up Ice very early in the year for less than our final offer but we f**ked around. Universally acknowledged that retention/recruitment screwed that one up. He is a top shelf person too. As is my man, Dylan Brown.

Rein is dynamite from dummy half. Has been up there with the best of them in commitment/fitness. Ultimate professional. He will be our 14.
He’s the only one out of the ones leaving that I wanted to keep. Travesty. And he’s going to the f**king tigers. What a waste of talent

Well making the finals consistently is the first step in winning a premiership. If you do that premierships are just a matter of time.

That's very hurtful.
So is putting shit on my insights and what really happened. Being an apologist for every bad decision that the club makes is getting boring. So is going opposite to every post a user makes on this forum, which you do EVERY SINGLE f**kING TIME.

And because you consistently do it you look like a hypocrite. I like it more when you post to your strengths. Analysis of the game and statistics.

Food for thought.

Merry Xmas, Pou.

Mate, I know some of the third party sponsors that got ICE to the Tigers. They really went all out to get him. We didn’t show enough interest. Crazy

My source stated that we should have gone all out to keep him. He is the strongest and most powerful in our pack. Also as I posted previously a fantastic person too. We f**ked up big time here.

Hey guy’s, Erin Molan is having Christmas with her dad. I am waiting for an update in the media for her Boxing Day plans and I’ll make sure we are all in the loop as soon as it’s out there.
Thanks, mate. I was wondering if she'd have Christmas with her dad.

Pou breaks down the game better than anyone else on LU, leaves Sterlo for dead. Probably has lovely luscious hair.
