Rumours and Stuff

A typical millennial (or whatever comes after that)?

Yeah wish that... It's not though..Only took 3 games for him to go from a starting 17 to never to be seen again...

He only started the year on first grade bench because we had Lane and Matterson unavailable. Doorey was in the starting team ffs. In reserve grade we had Mataele and Moretti, who doesn't even play on the edge. These blokes are backups. Andrew Davey played one game in reserve grade and walked straight into the 17. You're overstating Momoisea's place in our squad. He's a career backup.

Well he isn't leaving the Titans so I guess he isn't in the 17 for us... He also isn't in the top 17 at the Titans just a backup.. So why would we want him in our 17 when he isn't at the Titans..

The Titans have plenty of outside backs and can save money getting rid of one. I think Schoupp would be on some decent coin there, probably overs. Plus has potential to be a pretty good player. He is only 22 and played almost 50 NRL games.

Well now a top 30 player is a backup for NSW cup.... I am not over stating anything he is wasting a top 30 spot along with Sam L ,Reign when he wasn't retired as well..

If Jirah was an actual backup why would we go out and buy another backup in Davey..

Great plan to waste a top 30 spot and coin on a player not ever going to play first grade again for the next 2 seasons.

So schoupp is on overs at the tits and wants probably the same overs to come here for 3 years yep that's a good option glad the club didn't agree with you..

He's just got to get parrafit

Sure he doesnt know where the dummy half is, but he is probably the only player in the NRL better than Guffo at finding a camera. Nofa is a Parra man and the quicker MON can make it happen, the quicker that all will be right in the world.

There's a special place in hell for you...

We have plenty of depth. We need someone that is 1st choice. Not another 3rd or 4th choice. We have plenty of them.

Not sure we have "plenty of depth" in the outside backs.

 

[Stagger eel]

we've had to call on park footballers and flegg players to fill spots in the backline in reggies and fielded a kid yesterday who shouldn't be playing NRL for about 18 months.

the situation is pretty f**ken dire when it comes to outside backs.

Depth as good depth or back up depth or Waqa Blake back up depth??

 

[the phantom menace]

That lack of (decent) depth just comes down to poor squad management / recruitment / retention - no other way to dice it.

FFS BA / MON / ROD (Random Other Dude)!

10 player to fill 4 spots.

of those 10 i would feed Penisini and Russell. i would give Sivo and Asi a snack.

why by another depth player when we need a gun? why tie up another $150-200k for 2-3 years on a bandaid solution to "help" this year. this year is gone.

 

[Avenger]

I’m assuming we didn’t acquire anyone and missed the deadline.

Why not try and acquire Bradman Best at $650k a year.

if we did we probably wouldn't know until 4pm tomorrow at the very least.

Yes it was very good, had a nice little chortle to myself while at work.

I'm going to have a stab and say that MON wouldn't want to entertain the thought of paying an outside back that sort of coin..
