Lol I remember a few years ago when we were chasing Daniel Mortimer.i think Parra ended up paying overs for him.Then I think he went to the roosters and I’m not sure what happened from there.
Pay is heading up to Orange right now with a blank cheque to try and talk Daniel out of retirement.

Britt has a bit of **** in him... and an error or two. Why the fuck we are wasting money on players though when we have ample ones already in those positions. Every other recruitment strategy centres around highlighting weaknesses in your clubs roster and recruiting players in those positions. Ours seems to be "release your semi-decent fringe NRL players and replace them with shittier fringe NRL players".

This board and coach are really starting to echo the past.

Lynne Anderson = Raelene Castle
Chris Anderson = Ray Dib
Dean Pay = Des Hasler
Andrew Hill = Todd Greenberg

The only way I’d be happy with this signing is if he is on a second tier contract and out of the top 30.

Checks out. Both from the Storm U20 system when Pay was there. Club can't wait to put out the puff piece on getting Britt on board.
Also I heard Peats I mention early today thought we're both bullshit until early today inthe press. But your it really fits story being told to get bulldogs DNA back involved 2019/20 then 2021 have the big purchases to make a finals

Mate if you run this forum get a petition together and get it in front of the clubs nose. We need change, we need it now.

Here we go again... Another recruitment drive that nets reserve graders and yet more forwards when we have more pressing needs isn't going to keep the wolves at bay.

Peats... god no! Cook has changed the game !
Hookers like Peats and McCullough are dead to the game they just don't cut it anymore as they aren't a threat due to their lack of pace and skill.

You have to love our recruitment...

We need a centre, hooker, half and maybe fullback and Melbourne have Scott, Grant or Smith, Drinkwater or maybe Papenhuyzen up for grabs if a big enough offer came their way and we end up with another forward with Stimson...

Instead of getting Brittain or Tracey from Souths we get Britt who is yet another forward.

Neither Britt nor Stimson are as talented as RFM and Martin who will be let go. People can preach patience all they want but with the club making average signings and poor decisions constantly, its impossible to keep the faith.

And neither Britt nor Stimson are skillful enough to be stars or game breakers which is what we need when we can't score points.

What do u expect from bullfrog Moore’s daughter
“When you think you have enough forwards but another one”
Bullfrog philosophy

Stimson and Britt aren’t mind blowing signings but to be fair it doesn’t mean they are the only signings we will make. It’s only fair to make a judgment once to final squad for next year has been finalised.

True but considering their track record so far, the dire need for a hooker and all backs and the first two signings being 2nd rowers then you can understand not giving them the benefit of the doubt.

Especially when RFM and Martin are both better than Britt and Stimson so it's a sideways move at best.

Firstly we have to wait and see if they actually have signed Britt and Stimson. The Stimson deal sounds like it’s happening but the Britt talk just popped up today and the Lurker isn’t exactly a solid source.

There’s so many possibilities and things up in the air. We might end up keeping RFM and Martin so these could be depth signings? I’m holding fire until we know a clearer picture on what’s going on.
