[Mr Angry]

DW Bronson xerri will be available to sign again in Nov. Fits your bill perfectly.

Well played, sir.

Alas he may be yours too.

How about we swap Hunt with Burton ??

No Burton not quite worth the money they are talking for his next deal just for a kicking game and being able to kick the highest spiral bombs ever.
Id have him as a centre though

 

[qld redvee]

Possibly as they may want experience with Burton

Would make sense

yes you can see it now gould offers hunt a 2 year deal option of 3rd starting from 2023 .... just imagine hunt playing behind kikau mahoney with burton fox and others outside him ... would be tempting Id imagine

Market Watch: Dogs join the chase for Hunt

Canterbury are considering making a play for St George Illawarra skipper Ben Hunt after a secret meeting between Hunt and the Bulldogs on Friday.

www.codesports.com.au

If this story is true then you know I would be prepared to say to Ben "thanks for the memories " and see ya..
How unethical of Hunt to go and meet the dogs .. He is our captain , he is our top paid player , he has 2 bloody games to play for us before the season ends but decides that the friday before a game is okay to discuss a contract that theoretically doesnt come into play until 2024 ..... sorrry that is just utterly wrong in my opinion .. send your manager by all means but you tag along as well FMD !!! AND where are Gus's morals .. hopefully Albert has arranged to meet Gus outside in the parking lot to talk to him .. Maybe we should move Hunt to hooker for the last 2 games and play Bud at half ...
If there is truth to the player revolt then this cant help matters ........................

Look,

He's a lot faster than Moga

Ben Hunt has met with Gus Gould and the Bulldogs

reported in the Daily Telegraph

Guess he is gone tele is alway 100% right of course

 

[Yow]

Doubt it, not that he is too clever for our mob that is true, Gould has been trying to get in Sullivan's ear all year.

Gus talks a lot of shit and gets his mates to keep stirring the shit even if its only 10% correct

 

[Drewbrees]

Yep

No Burton not quite worth the money they are talking for his next deal just for a kicking game and being able to kick the highest spiral bombs ever.
Id have him as a centre though

 

[Drewbrees]

Yep, I think he's a centre too and a bloody good one.

Wait, what...Gus Gould has mates?

 

[dannyt]

Wait, what...Gus Gould has mates?

Yes, until he can't afford the payments.

 

[pinball_collector]

let hunt go. keep bud.

pretty simple.

 

[randomdragon]

quite disrespectful for your club captain to go and have lunch while in season, if I was dragons id not even table another contract, no one else is playing him at half back, so he can get f**ked

Has to come from the board, who have been shown to be as effective as perforated condoms.

Spot on!!! If it’s true that Hunt told the club to wait till seasons end then goes and sneakily meets up with Gus today regarding 2024 then he can f**k right off. Absolutely inexcusable from the club captain who should be encouraging Sullivan to stay and absolutely play the position that is best for the TEAM. That’s what a real leader does.

Plus this bullshit of trying to have Hook resigned for 2 years to line up their contracts. Now I’ve really had a gut full. You have just been paid 5 mil since 2018, your life is now set up financially, how bout repaying the club that has supported you since 2018 where we have made the finals ONCE

Hunt during McGregor's time was very underwhelming. Mary's departure saw the disappearance of our most dedicated and gutsiest player at the time - McInnes who was a blind faith devotee of the bald one. When we had the likes of Widdop, Frizell and better forwards in the team, Ben was playing pretty average most games, at least for a million dollar man. Suddenly his buddy Hook arrives and he switches on to become a star player. I doubt Hunt or Hook are considering those lean years in their little lovefest and negotiations. Only the actual fans of the club can see the full picture.

Good teams seem to be have a host of players willing to die for their coach while at our club it just ends up being favourites and then a bunch of disgruntled players who play the game like cowards at times.

 

[jak]

so if hunt go's to the dogs doe's that include hook going with him as his personal coach.

IMO no way Gould wants Hunt.
This is all part of the Dogs mind games and scare tactics to force us to quickly sign an extension with Hunt so he can pounce on Sullivan.
Love how the meeting with Hunt is leaked to the press so quickly.
Absolutely happy to let Hunt go to the Bulldogs from next year.
If they see Ben as part of their premiership plans then ask the dragons to release him for 2023 and PLEASE sign him immediately. Good luck to Ben and the Dogs.
Or are they playing games?
Lets just see how serious the dogs are ?
Oh and as a reminder for Gus and his team when they are doing the deal:
"Benny was leading the Dally M's before they went behind closed doors"
