Rumours and Stuff

Yeah let’s name and shame these Merkins!!

I love a good scapegoat!!

I’m not blaming them for anything. They need to look out for numero uno. Just don’t shit on the club on your way out.

Well we must be doing something right if Penrith have to overlook their own juniors. How do you stop the flow to the three peats ? So tempting for the kids vs spoonbowlers.

I imagine a bit if culture and passion. The sort of stuff JR was talking about, let's hope anyways

Sangalang to Penrith and Coinakis not sure where he’s landed but gone

Sangalangs a goodun!

The common theme is all these losses in juniors, seems to be an inability to sell their pathway in the club, been true for a while unfortunately.

Whose responsible for that issue

We managed to sell it to the better juniors we’ve kept.

Yeah lol Penrith what a joke they are!! No one does it better than us, a smart development club that is the envy of the competition.

Source???? I'm sure Penrith are poaching our shitty players, those merkins have no idea. We have the Ponisiiiiiiiiiii of the west.

'The Broncos of the West'

It's fitting actually cause the Broncos are also a joke

Can’t believe you really believe some of the stuff you post , then again, it’s part of the circular arguments you always Dish up.

Interesting both Rouse Hill

Not sure I would agree with that sentiment given we have already lost Sanders, Talagi and Arthur. As a development club its a poor look if this is indeed correct.

On a whole losing juniors, Rep Juniors, is poor.

Individually, Sanders was blocked and Arthur, well. It seems we did everything we could to keep Blaize. Even as some attest, play him in NRL before he was ready. I'm a bit shocked about Sangalang and Coinakis. Am I right in saying there is no salary cap for players like that ? Clubs can basically throw anything at them ? Sad that they didn't have the desire to stay.

And yet those same limited human Resources seem to be making more palatable decisions....weird.

Or they are just gaining experience.

I am aware of why Sanders left. They did a lot to keep Talagi, yes but didn't. Arthur was a different story.

My argument is that space for them to develop towards first grade was cleared by those three leaving - particularly for Coinakis, someone whom the club and media lauded as someone to be excited about despite losing Arthur. To lose him on top of Arthur, if true, is unforgivable IMO. It further highlights the continued ineptness of the organisation as a whole for a start as well as showing that simply changing the first grade coach isn't going to change the fortunes of the club.

In your business experience, surely 6/7 years in any position should be enough to see a significant improvement. Just disappointing to see more of the same in that area.

I assume Coinakis hasn't gone to the Riff they are stacked with dummy halves in their juniors all the way to first grade.
Which is why it's concerning as we are not very strong in hooker and given him a solid 2-3 years could be fighting for a first grade gig.

It's been 5 years for most of them, but yep, I would expect to see some improvement and to be honest, I think we are.

Might not be in all areas at all times but like I said in an earlier post, the future looks brighter than it did.

Or into the near future. Until such time as they quit f**king around with having people come in to dissect what is wrong with the Pathways system and fix it the club as a whole will never reach the potential it has to be a powerhouse and will be forever a joke.
