Now this is a crazy scenario if true ... Here we are saying Molo has an agenda because he wants out when he has a 2 year deal and this article says we are chasing Aloiai even though he is under contract for Manly.
This whole "contract ' situation is so rubbery unless Vlandys decides to step in it will get to the stage that players will be on the move as teams look at strengthening positions during the year and entice players to jump ship
maybe if you sign players for an extended contract to make it appealing But if Aloiai is indeed a target but hes contracted for 2 years how can we chase him .......
Maybe Aloiai for Molo.

Call it for what it is , a brand destroyed by a piss poor board who accepted mediocrity as acceptable .
Wow what a horrible and pointless beat-up.

Every sports team experiences lower attendances when results are bad. We have been through an awful 10 + years which has led to disillusionment and lower attendances.

Get back in the top 8 and this will change pretty quick.

This guys an arsehole for needlessly, pointlessly kicking us while we're down, and just pointing out the obvious. We'll be back, and we will wipe the smile of this arseholes face.

The contract situation is a joke and the NRL hasn't done anything to improve it or police it more strongly. I don't really care as long as whatever happens is on the clubs terms not these want-away player's.

Aloiai would be a like for like replacement for Molo, maybe a bit better but not much. But hard to believe any of these rumours, harder to believe we'd be successful even if the story is true that we're chasing Aloiai - going on our strike rate so far.

I have watched a few Manly games recently and Aloiai made an impact. I knew he was there. I have never even noticed Molo was on the field. I think this could be a pretty good outcome.

Being told to be careful not to over indulge is pretty tame stuff.

I get the lecture from the Mrs regularly.

Molo may have been embarrassed because of his prior conduct.

But this is a massive overreaction.

Francis may be mentally ill.

Or then again maybe he wants to go home to Qld.

I would be more sympathetic if he was homesick.

Right now I just think it’s a convenient excuse to get out of his contract because his agent has found him a better deal.
All he had to do was address it at the time as it happened and let the person know assertively that he doesn't appreciate that comment and its not on

not stew on it for ages and want out

If they pulled their head in great, if not, then he can ask for a release etc

but if he hasn't tried to address it then this is piss weak

Hey Big lance.
help an old bloke out!

How do you tell?
Was it the site?

I could not find the article in a mainstream search
Yep those are some good reasons and indicators.

Definitely the other articles on the site make some big claims thst are published no where else.

No name put to the article is a good indication too.

It also appears to stitch other articles together from other sources into a different story
