'I'll get in first, and say he can be quality , he is not whom we should target, as he is not a mid season buy or a misdemeanour problem child looking for redemption, which are our normal buys.

So before we miss out and get told he was too sexy or too good for us, wanted too much money, isn't in our youth policy wanted to live on a beach. yada yada yada Remember apparently Ryles / Club are interested in him, as being reported by Nine / Zero / The Mole and before the youth only pundits yell from the roof top he isn't and never was in our plans, i'm just going to throw my own opinion away and say.

Why bother attempting to sign him, if the club uses the same methods of negotiation and the same fans think he's too good for us, the outcome has already been decided ! Hasnt it.

For information only - not for opinions that indicate he could improve our squad.

"Cheers. Sounds very reasonable Hoe. What a conundrum for Super and others. The negativity pulls 2-3 times more traffic, but the vibe of the site is one not embraced by the club. Moving forward if the direction is to become closer to club…"

"Bluey, It was telling what Iongi and May were talking about social media, so it’s not my imagination. But from my perspective, since you asked, social media naturally leans towards more negativity than positivity. The Media lives off it.…"

  Although in saying the above, I actually don't mind Molo.
  
  Agressive and that's something we don't currently have in our pack.

Typical supporters, it's the kinda shit that's related to another post..... same meaning different post, full on whinging dribbling. Ryles knows, if it ain't good he will know.
