  • Here we have a solid player who can play multiple positions and has proven he can run like lightning , amd our R&R team can't even convince him he's better off with us than a cellar dweller team. Tell us we are cap bankrupt without telling us we are cap bankrupt. If only we'd saved a few hundred thousand on our marquee players contracts by not trying to match rubbish teams offers. 

    • We don't know how that conversation with Treacy went, so you're just speculating Wiz. Maybe his dream is to own a pub after football and the dogs can get him there LOL....

    • We have Sivo, Sivo, Sivo 

    • I thought this Cameron Ciaraldo is supposed to be a super coach of the future? Gus running around recruiting everyone. What's the point of paying big bucks for a coach, if he isn't there to develop and improve the players he's got! 

      At least Craig Bellamy is a REAL coach that actually identifies young talents and develops them into superstars. 

  • The Dogs have Crichton, Kikau, Burton all above $800-900 K.

    Mahoney apparently $700 plus

    How do they just keep signing players.

    And Parra sign Matt Arthur and a few Neville Nobodies.

    WTF ?

    • We are in an infinitely better place than the Dogs. 

      They have spent all their money in all the wrong places and lost multiple juniors who will go on to be stars elsewhere. 

      They are a very good chance to finish dead last.

    • The Dogs roster is extremely unbalanced. They need middle forwards, yet will have Kurt Mann and Jaeman Salmon on the bench to play some middle and be utilities. 

      They still do not have a 7 and seems they are going with Taaffe and Sexton as their halves in Round 1, moving Crichton and Burton to Centre. So roughly $1.5mil at Centre, that is a lot. Imbalanced. They sign Crichton and change their mind on what to do with him, sign Taaffe to play Utility or Fullback now he is playing Five-Eighth. They have no idea what they are doing with their squad. Very much a "Sign them now, decide where to put them later". That is not how you build a roster.

      • Kikau may not see out 2024. Not happy jan.

        • All drank Gus cool aid and regretting it. Mahoney has accepted his fate but is trying to keep it together.

          "it's alright everybody" is his motto as he panickley writes.

      • Aren't they going to sign Cleary and Reynolds??

"MON and all his staff at R&R should be sacked if they don't have the decency to go. It had been happening consistently, losing out to every player that some teams are also after. It is not accidental, it is utterly incompetence."

"No doubt there's been improvement on the field and off it, but we are still far away from where need to be off it IMO.
Ryles has been a revelation and so too has the R&R team - although there's has been in a negative light."
