everyone knows the first month is always a lottery.
No wonder we always struggle, then - these pillocks in the Blue and Gold are playing bingo!

Not happening, we will wait.
I reckon with Luai we would challenge for the 8 next year but not without Klemmer. Its not worth losing Klemmer and Galvin for that year.You should because 2024 you'll be rubbish anyhows even with Luai. Build for 2025
What’s with the italics?Would Dogs release Burns. I don't mind him.

Ok.f**k of merkin. I dont know what I prese3d
Reportedly $650,000 plus TPA.
I hope soI am expecting 3/5 to start the season this year and can see us going better than that. Each to their own though....
I'm by no means confident he will backflip at all, just saying the length of the deal with the raiders also having Strange long term is interesting. I do believe he will leave the Eels though, just a possibility considering the extremely faint whispers going around of a potential Brown to fullback move in the future.He'd backflip? How long are Moses/Brown signed for?
I'm not a huge fan of Reed and never have been but that is extremely fair to blame his form on the pack he has. At Parra he always struggled defensively, but sat between 2 big boys at all times who would protect him. Even in attack when he would hold the ball too long and put players in poor positions, he had the luxury of quality to hide those slight mistakes that go unseen when in a good team. His best attributes were his creativeness especially near the try line to set up forwards outside another with a short cut-out and also his brilliant long passes. He's a quality player in a good team but to me that isn't worth a large price tag like the Dogs Paid. The point that frustrates me the most about the situation of Reed leaving was when we were approached by multiple Agents looking to have their players replace Reed. The notable were Api (too much coin, so not really fussed about this one), Sam Verrills and Reece Robson. Robson was unwanted at the time by the cows until his huge 22 season and Verrills could have been very cheap after the injuries hes had and the convenience of staying in Sydney and going to a club that was in a very good position at the time.let’s just say he’s making less noise about reed than he was in match this year, than again he blames reeds form on the dog shit middles they have.
I believe I saw a bit of a leak today that he may be included in the Rabbitohs NSW cup contracted players list? Interesting that theres no announcement of his departure. Then again in wiki earlier today was saying he is going to be at Castleford.Would Dogs release Burns. I don't mind him.
well if you are referring the information I put above about the hookers situation, it was reported in the media in the days after Reeds decision to sign with the Dogs. I know a little more than what wa reported but ultimately it was decided that Hodgson was the man to go for at around $500k for 2 years. We had the option for the other 2 for cheaper. To be fair, hindsight is beautiful when discussing Verrills and Robson now.What’s your story Mr Giraffe. How do you know this stuff?
he has a long neck and is looking over the fence ..... derrrWhat’s your story Mr Giraffe. How do you know this stuff?
agreeWhat do people think Mahoney is worth?
I'd imagine Harry Grant is on 850k mark.
I would say Rheed is probably worth 450-550k form pending. 650k is overs but I don't feel like it's terrible overs. It isn't like he is a 200k hooker. He is still quality.
@GrayGirrafe1140 - not all necessarily hindsight Re Robson.... I posted the above on 26 November 2021 in this very thread... I feel like I'm approaching @hindy111 levels of insight and eye for talent if I'm being honest.... Probably a Mr 65-70% at the moment....I'd sign Robson, like I said earlier, but in no way am I asserting he is better than Mahoney. But I would contend that you could sign him for ~250-300 and get a player on the same upward path as Mahoney.
Has shown good footy instincts and footy nous from what I've seen.

OK... I'll settle for Mr 50%... I think Robson could go either way and I could take him or leave him..... Now I feel more like Gary Gutful.....f**k of merkin.
@TheRam mentioned him and Crossland.
