[BELMORE]

He said Andrew Davey is my son

Hahaha true. He also loves the word "nuances" a little too much but I love listening to him tell yarns

Swear he has max 7 stories that he has recycled, embellished and reused for the last 20 years. Punish

What an good human. We need blokes who are more hardcore in the mix, but this bloke is as solid as they come, like Turvey, Baa, Robbo etc.

If true finally a bulldogs mentality sure plays like it

I'm going to have to weigh the pros and cons of watching this. I am a huge fan of Preston. Loved the way he spoke in his initial interview with the club. But I hate Kemp and the way he can't help but compare how hard it was in his day, his own rehab mental demons etc. After a couple of episodes I decided he's leading up to questions so he can reminisce about his own career. It just annoys me a lot for some reason.

When I hear the word Denan (Denon) the first thing that springs to mind is stereo systems

Denan is a massive pussy so I won’t be listening

Yeah, he can be hard to listen too alot of the time. I actually think he constantly refers to his own career because he is an awkward and inexperienced interviewer and struggles with any silences.

Watching now. Hard to believe he had such a serious broken leg and still pushed on to become a NRL player. My admiration just doubled. What a tough kid.

I think denim jeans lol. I don’t mind his reminiscence, but I rarely watch him, so probably would get sick of him eventually. What I like is that he can at least relate to players, even though training methods do change.

Ha i guess I haven't heard them enough times yet to become annoying

One extra chromosome vibes

Gus signed him to a FG contract, before he’d played a NSW cup game?
Great call.

He was a brilliant acquisition. Nothing better than a signing nobody cheered much about that quickly becomes a fan favourite. Was the same with King and Kiraz. I only recall a few people who rated any of these guys before they'd played a few games for us. Most were screaming about players they'd prefer we'd signed despite their heavy price tags.

As far as I'm concerned, our progress with roster improvement isn't as quick as I'd like it in an ideal world. But it's not ideal right now with cap rises meaning most of the big forward talent was retained through that extra space. If we'd hit this point with the ability to adjust our roster 2-3 years ago we'd have had more talent to chase. We shouldn't just throw all that hard won cap space away on anything but a star where we need them.

But I think we're not quite finished adjusting our roster yet. If any prop talent pops up we'll be all over it.
