Mcinally, that's a loss. Explains Kennar.
Kamire - no loss.
Liolevave - only just signed with us.
Clark - was meant to be the next Jackson.

Why do we buy and underuse these players.

McInally - great QCup signing Crusher.

Kamire - just awful

Liolevave - why chase him for 2 years, sign him for 2 years then flick him after 9 months???? Ridiculous.

Clark - signed for 2 years, gets flicked after one.


How good is our recruitment team

Thanks for the update. Guess they felt these guys were dead wood.

Lamar: Mid 2016 season signing. Chased him back in 2015 when he re-signed with the Tigers for two years until the end of this year, did not even see out that contract. Now he is gone?

Graham Clarke signed along with his brother James who is in U 20's...I did say I wondered if they signed him just to get his brother. Will no doubt go back to Qld and if he does not play footy work on the family farm.

Jake: Has shown little effort this year and was in and out of Intrust, mostly playing RMC for Auburn. Showed some promise a few years ago and was to have played with the Cowboys this year but he was released back to us for personal reasons.

Jarrod Mcinally: not sure what happened here.

Didn't see much of him at all this year. Looks like Tolman so I'm gonna say he plays like Tolman haha

Is James going any good, mean't to be a promising backrower?

Hasn't kicked on like he should have. Much like Jake Kamire.

Dhrys Miller, Luis Strickland, Will Kerr, Joey Tramontana, Marcelo Montoya all look like decent prospects potentially.

He's got major problems with a back injury which he had surgery on last off season and missed the first half of the season and it re occurred after a few games and that was his season.

I would add Kiko Manu he has nice foot work and speed just needs a but of size.
I really hope the club releases Tramontana he's a decent player but I just hate his attitude.

Whats everyone's thoughts on Jayden Okunbor ?
He looked like the next big thing but he looks rather average after seeing more games.
He doesn't have much pace or agility I thought he looked better playing prop at the back end of the year

Jayden is a victim of being played out of position and not fine tuning his game in preferred position.

Agree RE Tramontana.. his attitude will have him down the same road as Joel Romelo.

Thanks for that. Hopefully he will recover and if not given a chance with the Dogs, is picked up by a QCUP side.

Lol that article is clear cut. Dogs offered him just enough to be considered "working" by the recruitment guys

Yeah minds made up reading that article.

If he was a prop and/or named Josh we'd have signed him.

Unfortunate, missed out on a ball playing lock with leadership qualities...
