"We just offered keon 1mill how the fuck do we not have cap space, what are you smoking? Lomax was on 650k, we never replaced dbrown, and braith said we signed pezet for unders this year. We have a war chest."
"Kelly would have taken some, then we re-signed a host of players who get upgrades for this year, include Pezet in that too.
We have cap space but not enough to accommodate Lomax for full price and fill the final spot in our top 30. We might have…"

"How do we not have any cap space? Makes no sense that we have so many players leave and we replace a fraction of the numbers and we have no cap space?? mind boggling

"Well in fairness, we thought too that the contract he signed, with his own free will, would be enough, as it should be.
Plus we probably felt we wanted him gone."

"Well we technically cannot do that even if we wanted him as we don't have the cap space to accommodate him."
"Well put it this way, when you had channel 9 show Billy Slater and have "4x premiership winner" that's says all that needs to be said about their reputation. They cheated 2 titles and channel 9 of all corporations still acknowledge it.

"At the same time if a player agreed to a deal where he is not allowed to play for another NRL team nobody should force us to renig on that deal. It works both ways."
"Exactly. Howarth has potential to be fair but is not on paper right now. But it is better as we got something we didn't think we would out of it."
"V'Landys thinks he knows what fans want, but he doesn't.
Abdo is a reverse Robin Hood, steal from the poor to give to the rich. The bloke if firm with clubs that are weak but soft with strong clubs and bows to them. The bloke acts tough but is weak…"

"We'd be a laughing stock. We've already got rid of him once, not going to happen, if it does we are dead in the water as a club "
"We should not of agreed to his release in the first place. You just watch parra get dudded now the nrl steps on.
V'landys is full of shit pokes his chest out threatning 10 year bans blah blah blah. He's full of hot air. "

"I'm well aware the Eels dont want him but logically its they are the only 2 scenarios that make sense unless the biased NRL come in and screw us over like usual"
"Eels don't want him, he's burned that bridge and club has already moved forward with players they trust. He'll end up in Melbourne but we should at least get Howarth out of it "
"The NRL by rights should tell Lomax to head back to Sydney and commence training with Parra if not sit out for the next few years. Seems like Melbourne have gone running and sooking to the NRL to get what they want"
"I really want a voice in this, why do us as a club need to bow down to a club thats been a utter shit for the game. They've been cheating the cap and winning GFs while doing so. While we kept loyal even during the SL war yeah we get nothing but a…"
Poppa's Dilemma, Welcome to my Corner, come in and have a Cuppa with a Silly Old Bastard. I think it's New Year Shortly?

ANY MORE SIGNINGS???
I've been frustrated recently about the work we have been doing in the open market. Jonah's alright for a year and JDB is solid but he's getting old. I feel we need more in the forwards and some a replacement outside back. All I have seen is links…

Lomax's management confident of deal
Common sense? Right so he is the victim here? Right i see. Also Clint Newton has said the RLPA will not allow Lomax to be used as a barganing chip. Newton who knows best for the sport is hoping Lomax get's off scott free so his players can do the…

For those who continue to suck off BA, please see the below FACTS and please explain your unwaivering support of this coaching clown.
1. Sit 8th by a miracle 12pts -23 F/A
2. Worst defence in the comp -296 points.
3. We’ve won 6 lost 7 but let’s see who we’ve beaten and where they sit on the ladder.
Panthers 10pts, played them back into form a few weeks back, sitting in 14th currently.
Saints 10pts lost 5 on the trot, sitting in 13th
Dogs 6pts, running dead last 16th
Tigers 12pts, playing like bustards coming 10th
Sharks 16pts, decimated by injury when we played them round 4, sitting 6th currently.
Rabbits 20pts, decimated by injury and origin last week, sitting in 2nd currently.
Now in all honesty, looking at the above FACTS, how anyone can claim that we are going ok so far beggars belief. Only a complete nuffy with zero idea of rugby league could state otherwise. We’ve only beaten sides below us in the ladder or sides not able to field a competitive side and depleted because of injury/origin.
We are going like bustards and tbh, only a few more bad games away from sliding down the ladder to where we rightfully belong. BA will not turn the side around any time soon, I just can’t see it.
Combine that with our stats last year that were the worst in the clubs history, its just diabilical that this man still mas a job.
Theres zero accountability at the club, even after a bullshit review nothings changed.
Wheres all the unicorn dopes who argued what great results we'd have this year because of it?
The whole review finding came down to the conclusion that it was Corey Norman's fault we were running dead last.
Worst defence last year, worst defence this year.
Our form so far is like having fallen from the Sydney Harbour Bridge having avoiding being killed on impact, not been eaten by the sharks and not drowning we've found a bundle of $1000 to spend on booze, coke and hookers.
We won't stay there unless our defence improves. And could even win another spoon.
Because all 19 wooden spooners, from 2000, have all been in the bottom four defensive teams - and at the end of R13 we have the 2nd worst defence in the competition.
Our defence is now worse than last year (conceding 22.7ppg versus 21.7ppg) when we won the spoon.
In round 6 we were coming 5th and had conceded 97 points (16.2 ppg). The best start since 1986 with the 3rd best defence, and 2nd best attack. That's where you have to be to win a premiership. Since 2000, 15 out of last 19 grand finals were won by top 3 defences (14 of those are top 2), or the top 3 attacks with reasonable defence (Cowboys 2015, Tigers 2005, Penrith 2003, Knights 2001).
The wheels have fallen off. And we are now a long way off the pace.
It really ain't looking good going forward. WTF is wrong with this club. Year after year it's the same thing over & over. We change coaches, we change players, we even change the board but the same result. What the hell is in the drinking water in Parramatta. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
9 lives gone. Thank you Tigers
