TDS

Perth?

I don't think TDS is at the marquee stage yet which Perth will demand with a fat cheque book.
They would have gladly taken Api though.

They need depth and players wanting to go there.

I don't really care what happens to either of them, but it's interesting that the press hounded us for (what seemed like) forever, and hardly a word said at this stage about this.
IMO, it shows he has a big investment in the journo's who produce the noise as & when required.

I think your right there Tm.
How the journos knife us continually but when their own Kent and Hooper stuff up they hardly say boo.

Journos will never bag their own colleagues as it's bad for business. Everyone knows Buzz, Crawley, Weidler, Hooper, Kent etc are just pieces of shit but people click on their stories, listen to their radio shows and watch their tv shows. Until that stops we are stuck with them.

Also I see tds got a taste of Mitch the bitch. Maybe he wasn't ready to be a fulltime first grader just yet after all haha.

The thing was, a few months ago, TDS said exactly that, he wasn't ready or fit enough to play FT in the NRL, can only assume his managers hatred for this club got in his ear and told him differently, now he's finding out, his manager has screwed him.

I won't watch Kent's podcast or anything he or Hooper puts out there until I feel they have served there penitence. Just a statement saying sorry in a newspaper doesn't cut it for me. It takes time for this sort of stuff to be finally accepted by me.
Unfortunately aholes make their way onto other media shortly after committing an offence, which makes it hard to completely ignore them.

I've said it often that players like TDS are a victim of the late NRL era process, where managers don't allow clubs to ease their youngsters into first grade.
Galvin for example, is being paid and talked up like he's a Cooper Cronk or Andrew Johns. His you know whats have only just dropped....same with TDS.
They haven't gained the experience to get the job done under extreme pressure and under numerous different circumstances, not by a long shot.

Are you serious? Richo has been a disappointment? He is already the best CEO we've ever had what on earth are you on about

Richo is the best credentialed CEO we’ve had & my expectations are commensurate with his glowing CV.However he has been disappointing thus far having made a no. of poor decisions & irrational statements not akin to someone of his prior success.
He had a golden opportunity to get one up on Galvins verminous manager by making him serve out his contract yet he meekly surrendered to the shitbag who for the 2nd time has destabilised our season.I also disagree with letting TDS who wanted to stay go especially so swiftly.At the very least keep him for remainder of this season when at the time we were fighting to avoid the spoon.The contracts offered to both Stephanie & Galvin were ridiculous overs & reeked of grovelling & desperation.
The congratulatory message to Brooks for playing finals last yr with manly was utterly embarrassing.This was so unbecoming for someone as hard-headed & ruthless as Richo.Same for the delusional declaration that we had the best spine.
Imo he may have been very disappointing thus far but I certainly didn’t say nor do I believe he isn’t the best CEO this merged rabble has ever had.Comparing his CV vs the lemons who’ve preceded him as CEO it’s a given that he should be the best CEO we’ve had albeit imo he has made a no. of uncharacteristic rookie blunders.

Little Mitchy needs someone to send him a highlights reel of his time at the Tigers.

Missed tackles, Kicks out on the full, passes to spectators in the front row. Some of his early performances made TDS look like Cameron Smith yesterday.

I am all for senior players driving standards, but Moses tested both Tigers and Eels patience for many years before he came good.

I don't think he came good at all

What sort of training are they doing over at the slimes?

I can’t see the drama with the Harry thing, if Leota steps right instead of stepping left there’s no penalty, but Leota made an effort to make Grant shift his run. Leota is the one they should be having a crack at, if he stands still Grant is no chance of getting to Cleary and there’s no infringement. Harry is one of the smartest footballers around, when Munster had the shot at field goal I said to my son, look how quick Penrith are getting up, Harry should dummy and run. Sure enough he has noticed it and makes the play in extra time.

He must have heard you.. Harry would have got to Cleary with no Leota.. apparently you just can’t stand in front of players trying to get to the kicker .. does that mean Leota has to get out of the way …Cronk was very clear on this being the case in the commentary

TDS on the bench and Parra down with 8 min to go, still no sign of TDS. What is Moses going to shout at him if he comes on.

 

[Nutz]

Moses was terrible yesterday. The Prima Donna yelling abuse at TDS might have come back to bite him. He was worst ½ over the weekend.

Agreed! Grant sold it with a dive sure but Leota Impedes him, so, fair call. . Would it always get called, probably not but it did and rightly so.

No doubt he has been hammered by Karma after his TDS directed temper tantrums however as much as I dislike the prick he has developed into 1 heck of a player.

I'm glad we have seen the last of him. Time to develop our own culture now.
One day ted, i hope to see a respectful but combative team that everyone respects and admires. You might have to wake me up if it happens though.

Only the supporters of a club think their team is great, all the other footy fans think they're shit.
All ways is and always will be.
TBH, I don't care how we win, as long as we win.
