    • Lol you'd think BA was in charge of recruiting all on his lonesome . 

      • Lol BA doesn't have much say

        But bashing BA is a enjoyable past time 

        • Who say is it then shld be coach as he coaches the team he shld be in charge of recruit to what type of players he wants 

          • Panadol please. 

            • I think parra are gonna have trouble 2023 for the second rowers they need its a very crucial spot for clubs most will have there second rowers sewed up from now till atleast 2024 2025 

    • If we announced we'd re-signed Stone for 23 onwards there would have been cries of "Why did we sign this plodder who costs us in the Panthers game" etc etc.

      Stone is good, not great. He probably doesn't have a place in our top squad and he will at the Dolphins. It's money off our books, and good for his career.

      Ive got no issues with this. Its not good or bad, it's just fine.

        • Staying for a coach is one element of the decision (unless you're Darius Boyd in which case it's the only element).

          I don't think anyone said that players would stay solely because of BA. People said that the players like playing for BA. I've left jobs where I've loved my boss, solely because the money and/or opportunity was too good elsewhere. Had nothing to do with my boss at the time even if they fought to keep me because there are situations when it's just too enticing to move on.

          Players leave for money, players leave for opportunities they won't get at Parra, that's life. Until we find a billionaire who is happy to bankroll our success through "introductions" and "investment advice" like Politis, this is what we have to deal with. Heck look at how many superstars Bennet (the god of coaches) has attracted to the Dolphins so far...

        • How would you know.

    • We'd be just fine without you 

      • Agree

Us — Polar opposite, overall. 4th worst for completions. 4th worst for errors and ball handling. It's cost us in the grind, and a few wins.
