For @Old Timer
Good to see Ryles is making an impression

For those wanting Brown at our club
Won’t happen
We signed Atko. No room for Brown unless Ilias fails

So he put all those clauses in his contracts with full knowledge Ryles was coming did he?

You might not rate Ryles but your effort to draw a long bow here is quite ludicrous.

You would have had the exact same crack at Flanno if it was him in charge, come on.

It’s the Dragons way
They keep asking Haran and he replies each time No thx

How do you know that?

You’re totally delusional and your accusation juvenile.

Brown has shown his mercenary and petulant behaviour on many occasions.

No.

He’s right.

 

[offiah]

Doesn’t seem to be all in on Ryles if he’s wanting to test the market this early.

Will be interesting to see how things play out with the Eels this year. Can’t think of too many of Bellamy’s protégés that have gone on to be great coaches? Madge would be the best I suppose.

Yes please, in a heart beat

I don't know about Dylan Brown.....always looks promising but from my recollections didn't really deliver much when Moses was injured last season. For the cash he is on I think it was his chance to stand up.

I agree from straight talent stand point. Played a lot of NRL too.

Be a juggling act and possibly not what fits right now with roster.

A lot of Parra fans don’t think he is worth anywhere near a mill.

I just took a peek at their forum. Not seeing any tears.

 

[Old Timer]

No.

He’s right.

I said he was delusional re the part about me & his reference to S F and his assertion was incorrect

I also believe that Brown has been a petulant mercenary since day 1 in the code.

His over indulgent contract clauses prove that very point.

Now he may be right that he doesn’t like Ryles or perhaps he & his manager are just proving difficult while he has forced time on the sideline recovering.

The board at tigers seem to be moving on for the future today with 4 new members.
Dragons board still sitting on their hands as usual no idea.
The last i heard before xmas it was the guy from a superleague club .
And before that was the guy from supercars that recently stepped down.

You are an absolute child of the highest magnitude.

No long bow
He has had the same clauses even under Arthur
He has just decided under the Messiah Ryles
Thx but no thx
By the way your the one that rates Ryles and said he is going to be a great emerging talent as will do it his way as the new breed as spent time in the Melb and Easts system
I have said all along I can’t judge him as he has coached no team yet and I asked you and you never replied what evidence do you have to back up that he would of been a better option than Flanno!
Still waiting……….

stop making out that you are fair and reasonable re Flanno with your KPI thing.
You don’t rate or like him due to his dark days and lack of apology in your eyes.. that’s OK and you are not alone with those thoughts but…
it still distorts your football and coaching arguments which are wearing thin and out of touch with reality

Says the King of the longbow , when it's Flanno!

Of course he didn't know Ryles was coming but he'd be a idiot if he didn't understand Arthur, without a premiership, likely to be gone well before 2031, hence the clauses.

Having said that- Brown is dreaming if he thinks he's going to better 900K over the next 5-6 years. IMO he is overpaid now. He's an expensive foil for Moses.

You’re just another pile on poster.

You see others have a lash at a false pretence re my opinions on S F and you jump in.

There is plenty I disagree with about S F and people’s opinions thereof but blaming him for circumstances re player contract inclusions or player managers heightening tensions between clubs, coaches & players is not 1 of them.

If you bothered to read through a few threads you would see that I detest player managers and their holding clubs, coaches to ransom behaviour.

So if it wasn’t juvenile of you to make it I apologise it was asinine.
