RCG is about the only player that we move on that we we won't have to pay a shitload of freight for, maybe Sivo the rest will be costly.
Yes but that also tells you that he is probably the one with the best chance to regain form if in the right environment and a new voice as coach.
Here lies the problem with tapping multiple players. Inevitably you'll lose the ones you'd prefer to keep and have to keep the ones that you'd prefer to punt.

I just listened to an interview on SEN1170 with Diana Langmack who is Paul's sister. She used to work at the Panthers and now Gould has brought her over to the dogs in the role of General Manager Stakeholder Engagement/Community.

Well if anyone wants to know why @hindy111 and I both predict that the Dogs will win a GF or even more before we do try to find this interview and listen to it. We could only dream to have such a set up at the Eels and surrounded by such capable people.

We are light years away from winning a premiership and people that think otherwise are deluding themselves.

Honestly it was so deflating listening to the interview because it just solidified even more so to me how far back we are from getting things right and finally becoming a consistent premiership contender that actually has a real chance of winning GF's again.

Fans get one eyed at times Ram. But we at our best where the Cronulla Sharks of this season. Nobody took us seriously as a premiership threat once under potato Head. Just a good side buy making up the numbers when the big boys ramp up in the finals.
The Grand final was never a chance in 2022 unless Penrith lost a man for 70mins and even then it would of been close.
Potato Head built a safe team that would make finals ut that's all it ever was.
The Dogs started recruiting hot talent like Burton,Mahoney,Hughes,Kiraz,Crighton whilst Potato Head went balls deep for discards like Waqa, Lane,Harper.
It was plain to see yet so many where filled by the Potato Head.
It wasn't all bad. Making the finals where fun and we got close a few times when we didn't expect. But ultimately Potato Head got exposed.

Dogs are one their way

Agree. I still think Sivo is safe under the Bigh ball and great 15mtrs out. I'd rather just keep him for the season.
LANE won't get offers of more then 250k. Jnr maybe 550k at best and Mattersons best bet is medical retirement. Nobody wants him

I agree, mate.

I'd prefer to keep RCG - when he's fit, and in form, he's a beast.

I think we are paying his salary in its entirety now, though, so financially, it would make sense to see if we can find someone who can do a similar job, at a smaller price - whether that person exists, or not, is a different issue.

But RCG is definitely a keeper, imo. I'd back Ryles to get him firing.
DSaf is one of the biggest plodders in the NRL. RCG at his worst is better then DSaf.

I'm keen to see our boys under some new coaching and new ideas.

As it been said previously, they're old but their not that old. New coach, contract year, I expect a huge effort from someone them.
