Bulldogs have pulled out of the race for Metcalf and his asking price is around 1 million dollars. Dragons most likely spot but to get him immediately I wonder if this means they will allow Sua to join us early to free up cap space to get Metcalf immediately. Just seems logical

he could still work at fox just like gus at 9
Maybe, maybe not. It could just be the challenge he's looking for. Having been a manager he's had a great feel for negotiation. He also knows what a successful football club looks like. He also has a key ingredient that we haven't had since Denis Fitzgerald..... Gravitas
We have mucho dinero and Braith is all about the lucre.
I like the idea. Drive the proverbial dumptruck full of cash around to his house and see what happens.
Daz, is your name really Prof Mark? (you can tell me I'm reeely good at secrets)
Randy, we are on good terms but that will change if you persist with silly remarks about my identity. Deal with my counter-argument to scapegoating directly, not via absurd insinuations. I thought we were on the same page about 'arguments' in general: they should be well-grounded not spurious
Are we agreed? A quick mea culpa will suffice
Daz in all respect you solely blame Ando for that? I think it was also about the head of the board too.....and tbh it was 10 yrs back; and he has worked with some decent clubs (Easts). But fair enough.....
Mitchy, thanks for making my point for me! Of course Anderson was part of a system that wasn't working. He was definitely accountable even if not solely responsible.
But that has been my point about scapegoating. Hence why I was surprised Chiefy offered Anderson as a model for a next GM. I was alluding to the absurdity of where scapegoating can lead: a little unhinged 'isolation' of one (MON in this case) breeds an idea of a single change will fix everything. Once the premise of that pseudo fix is accepted - it's all this one bad actor - saviors get offered up who are actually not assessed credibly. I mean just look at the Libs and One Nation attempt to link the housing affordability crisis to immigrants. Scapegoating non-whites won't addressing housing costs. Making speculating on housing the savior just free it from scrutiny. Scapegoating is always bad policy
But this has been my point. We won't get productive change out of scapegoating. We will only get knee jerk savior complex decisions.
Well Anderson is Head of recruitment. MON is GM. Two different roles.
So shouldn't you be asking who do we prefer out of Anderson and Rogers?
Peter O'Sullivan for me I'm looking at the talent he's managed in conjunction with others to get to Newcastle and the Dolphins at his most recent stops would just about do it for me.
I mean St George tried to get him before he took the Newcastle job.
They've over paid on more than a few.
