Why won’t they sign with us?

How do you know that ?

The signing of co-captain Cook, the extension of Liddle on top of the premature extension of KF and the selection policy of last year reeked of nepotism.

There is no way Cook will be relegated and neither will Liddle so the 14 jumper is gone.

The 2 year extension of Kyle and all the praise heaped upon by coach, other coaches and journo's is not befitting a second grade player so where else can he play other than in the halves?

Daddy didn't bring his boy here to play anything other than 1st grade as he firmly believes KF has more to offer and that SF can get it out of him so that is surely a big deterrent to other halves let alone their managers.

I'd say management skills. Most likely Haraan has been calling the recruitment/retention shots and messed up our salary cap. Both Anderson and Flanagan seem to be always talking about 2027.

So it will be Kyle at 7 and Atkinson at 6 for 2026. I'm hoping Reed willl be ready for 2027.

Even if Reed comes through for 2027 he will still be a rookie half with a hell of a lot to learn...not the game breaker we need. It will take him several seasons to make his mark...so 2030 could be our year!!!

Doesn’t make sense. Any decent half would be guaranteed a first grade position & easy road against Flanagan.

Amongst player manager's the word is out, Flanno prefers Kylle at 7.

But Kyle will have failed again and moved to 14 by Flanno.
