Gus caught meeting with Blake Taaffe

[TalDog]

Depth player as long as it’s small contract I’m ok with it

could be awesome or could be another Corey Allen

 

[Robbothedestroyer]

Utility back with good pace can’t hurt upgrade on what we currently have.

 

[MoNkEy]

We are allergic to front rowers

A few weeks in the gym.

Sorted!

 

[Raysie]

I actually like the guy. He single handedly destroyed us last week.

But, to be real here... he's literally the same player as Averillo (If not worse), and we let him go.

 

[TABOO]

Probably to play #14.
Since Averillo went above what we wanted to pay for him, it's a low cost back up.
Don't love it, don't hate it.
He plays hard.

Gus has mentioned 1000x that they are on the lookout for middle forwards too.

 

[Kempsey Dog]

Please no.

I'm with ya, serves no purpose unless he's full time #14.

 

[MitchNewton]

would be a great signing, but wtf GUS! sign a prop fuck me

Maybe we've signed a prop and Gus isn't telling us shit?

Which prop?

 

[Gene Krupa]

Gus will say it's photoshopped.

 

[Gene Krupa]

Which prop?

Probably Haas.

 

[underdogsontop2246]

Which prop?

Hame Sele has probably signed. He's a go forward prop and never gets dominated in tackles. Last week vs Warriors he made 200 metres in 40 metres.

Gus just wants to keep it quiet till the end of the season.

Alamoti is very close cousins with him.

If the Rabbitohs resigned him, they would have announced him ages ago.

 

[chemdog]

bbo should be our 14 next year

 

[CrittaMagic69]

I think they’re getting him to be a utility, can cover halves and Fb. Have a feeling that’s what they wanted Sullivan for too

We have Hayze, BBO, Papalii, etc. I really don't think it's a role we need to be investing any sort of money into. This just comes across as a typical Gus signing, slightly cheaper than what's available on the market but a player for whatever reason Gus rates and/or thinks could be better.

 

[bcmf]

He actually isn't.

that's how shit eqw was

 

[Bad Billy]

if we’re paying fox/critta money for him, then get fucked. But at the right price? i don’t hate this, he gives us cover for all the outside back and half positions and if we need to move Critta to centre for a period, he’s a more than capable FB.

 

[Freakzilla]

People didn't want to keep Averillo yet they're happy to sign Taaffe to play fullback so Crichton can play centre lmao.

I'd rather Averillo at the same price than Taffe.

 

[wendog33]

He actually isn't.

Wilson is far better. I can tell already
Souths leftovers.

 

[Dogna88]

Crighton has backflipped. We have agreed to it.

Critta's management agreed out of respect not to announce until we make a signing.

Bulldogs in panic mode

Avo isn’t worth the money the dolphins gave him. That’s why some were happy to let him go.

Waiting for Joel to start panicking very shortly.
