Bennet wouldn’t pay someone $500k to play reserve grade.

So I imagine the Ilias situation is annoying him.

Move Rava to the forwards pack and solve a few problems at once.

He’d drop the ball, miss his tackles and mess up the plays, he doesn’t have the smarts unfortunately, a decent battering ram on the wing but would be horrible in the middle of the field.

My gut says Hunt to the roosters and Townsend getting a release to us.

I said this about 2 months ago & people laughed at me

May+Townsend would have made a great swap for Hunt, but I dont think there is any chance it happens now.. Chad and Hunt would be good coverage for walker/cheese, Chad was cheap as too..

We will go for someone a bit younger I reckon.. someone who could be a longterm half for us.. If we did miss our main target(s) though.. then well.. ok that would get interesting.. but I think we will do no worse than Ilias...

Mate I`m just glad you didn`t say `pianola`, because then I`d know you were really old.

And yet he trained in the Eastern Suburbs and drove with the traffic each day from the West.

No wonder Flanno was non committal.

as the saying goes, we are seeking volunteers not prisoners.

so if it’s not the travel what is it why we are rejected by all the players except those that no other club wanted?

I was given the impression from you guys that you rated Jayden Sullivan (Bud) when he was at Saints. He left on good terms to take up a gig at WT.
Now he's been squeezed out by Jarome Luai and has been told he's free to go.
The Wests Tigers are willing to throw in $300k a season for the remainder of his contract.
I thought he would be a good pick up after that offer.

Dysfunctional management that is attempting to micromanage roster decisions

Poor relationship with player managers

A history over the past 10 years of mediocrity on the field

No brown paper bags

A bog average roster
