Shouldn’t have been included, the Orr bros also manage our ex coach and family, interesting.
I don't mind splitting hairs. MON said:
I think sustained effort was aways an issue for a few of our forwards, and there is an inherent quality to that. No matter how fit he gets, Junior Paulo will never be able to make the repeat efforts that JFH makes, but he also won't be picked up and driven back by Ray Stone.
We'll see, but I trust the current mob to make good decisions. They might be bean counters, but the good ones are open to advice from subject matter experts.
Why? He's gone into it with eyes wide open. Our issues have'nt exactly been a closely guarded secret. He's a big boy now, so we'll see how he handles it. I hope he does well but ................
I am sure if he went to the chooks it would be sold through the media he is taking a paycut to play for a glamour club.
Id rather Volkman on bargain basement price then Blaize as a 5/8.
The drop in set completions in 2023-24 shows we in fact weren't "still chasing a style of play" we used before. We went away from what worked for us.
The Parramatta Eels have learned nothing from last season - The Rugby League Eye Test
Another round, another second half flame out by the Parramatta Eels. When they found themselves behind against Manly in the second half, they doubled down on some incredibly poor discipline and let the game slip away from them. Unfortunately, the team hasn’t learned the first law of holes – when...www.rugbyleagueeyetest.com
This paragraph was quite damning on BA - Round 8 after we lost to Manly at Brookvale and went 3-5.
We were ahead 14-6 at halftime similar to the game before against the Dolphins in Darwin
And after eight rounds in 2024, it’s clear they’re not even the under achieving 2023 Eels, they’re much worse. Yet they’re still chasing a style of play that the rest of the league has left behind. For a club with so many inherent advantages over the rest of the competition off field, it’s becoming embarrassing how little they’re using them to help the on field product.
I think we can all agree it's not a level playing field, and hasn't been for a very long time. If ever.
Galvin is not available for next year, Brown is
Our Ex coach has already stated he wants to coach in the NRL again next yr....not sure which club would be after him if any...wants to get the gang back together again.
I meant during a game, when the first-choice backup half isn't in the 17.He didn't play in the halves when we had injuriessoooooooo
Since we aren't getting Eli Clarke Id respond by locking in Volkman to a bargain basement contract for a couple of years. This would leave us near 800k for an elite player in 26 whether this be hooker or edge.
No it Brown for a shitload of cash. (And Volkman)
That's the upside.
