Who are we going to buy

We should have more then enough money to buy Koloamatangi Garrick Murray 

With no Lomax Matterson Lane Cartwright  Brown thats a big chunk off our salary cap we can buy players 

We got got 2 players for next year and 1 only for 1year what a joke 

At this stage i think we come last lost to many players replace them with only 2 players

      • Well they should know that by now, as we all do. Remember, this dope signed Matterson. Most probably he will wait until only the reserve grade quality bargains are left ... his team's motto may as well be "We will buy cheap and develop them. Lest we fail; then repeat until we can lay claim to getting a good one."

        BTW, by the sounds of it, he isn't missing out, he isn't even looking yet.

        • To play devil's advocate he also signed Papali'i, RCG, Lane, Opacic, Iongi, Kautoga, Hopgood, Smith, Williams, JAC etc.

          Yeah i think it could be time for a change at GM of footy but he has had some decent hits in the market. Not excusing him for not getting a host of deals done and had a share of misses, particularly in 2023 where he thought since BA was able to make Papali'i into a star he can do the same with 4-5 high potential players that have done nothing with Hopgood, Doorey, Murchie, Momoisea etc. Only Hopgood worked out.

          • LB ...yeah, he technically signed everyone since he came on board.

            You're a generous person. 

            • Badger you know what i mean. He signed Papali'i and it was a great signing. Same with Opacic. He got RCG deal with Penrith pitching in. He got Lane over when really a nobody. Got Sivo from nowhere. 

              Saying he signed players who came on board but he got some good signings, if you cannot admit that then you either have an agenda or just do not know much about what he has done.

              Again, doesn't excuse his bad signings and how he dealt with re-signing talent. Also, there is a pattern of picking up those that need a second chance instead of big names.

              • Of course bloke. I pay you a compliment by saying you're a generous person plus agree with you that the other guy didn't just sign duds because he signs everyone and you then accuse me of being an ignorant cunt or someone with an agenda against some other cunt I have never met and have nothing to do with.

                So, my online 'friend', on this occasion, you can well and truly get a big rabid dog up ya.

                • Christ Badger get a grip. It didn't read like a compliment, though also not just you but majority here are just blasting MON as completely incompetent and I join in with some jokes too but I also stay in the middle and admit the good things which a lot here don't do, same with BA of the past

                   

                  If that offended you on here, then I'd hate to see someone actually properly get into you then. If someone said that to me I'd consider that tame. 

                  BE said something on Sunday that I thought was condescending and it was read wrong but I didn't call him names or tell him where to go either. You and I have had plenty of debates and all of them civil. So not like I am like some here who just abuse everyone.

                  So if I read it wrong I'm sorry but seriously get a grip if it offended you so much

                  • Yes Badge, LB was not like you indicated and your language in response was hardly relevant.....haven't heard LB use the "C" word and I am no prude but I try and avoid it.

                    You can do better, and Mon getting and retaining Matterson has to rate up there as one of the great "hindsight" comments......God help him if Matterson actually turned into one of our best......or worse in another side that does better than Parra.

                    PS Storm are looking for a new second rower, Ryles maybe able to put in a good word to Bellamey about Matterson (???).....would be a good opportunity for Matto as he may find himself in a comp winning side....after the Lomax fiasco and unless we come up with some miracle signings we will finish closer to last than first and I reckon I am the sites biggest optimist!

                    • silly old cunt

                    • I am used to being called a "C" by you Randolph, but that "old" bit really hurts!

        • It is November. Every club is negotiating with half a dozen (or more) players right now. But with the new NRL clubs and R360 coming in, it should be expected that every club will end up paying more for a weaker roster. The key is to minimise the damage.

not exactly a like for like but they will need a seasoned body and Matto can play middle and edge for them."
