As long as that thug Nathan Brown is nowhere in sight he’ll be fine. Hope we give Brown a touch up in Round 1.Is DWZ fit to play? What about his shoulder injury.
I want that dog cut in half and out for the season.As long as that thug Nathan Brown is nowhere in sight he’ll be fine. Hope we give Brown a touch up in Round 1.
People are already complaining we can’t attract players. We never would again if we did thatShow some balls Dogs and advise the NRL our players are not available for anything other then club games.
You both make fair points.. and they both have valid reasons, so I can’t disagree with either. It’s a hard argument really.People are already complaining we can’t attract players. We never would again if we did that
Not talking for forever man, take a stance and bring this stupid rule to a head before anyone else is injured. Do it now for a nothing game which would buy some power leading to SOO. Would be nice to see some strong leadership that actually means something for once. The fans are the biggest losers through all this stuff, year after year, decision after decision, Board after Board, we are the ones left angry, unrepresented and unsatisfied. If our guys took a stance and just fought one battle I think it would help so much to the struggling dogs fans. Find our mongrel off the field again and a siege mentality on it!People are already complaining we can’t attract players. We never would again if we did that
Elliot is indigenous??
Who knew?
That’s a really good point about protesting against the 350k rule.Not talking for forever man, take a stance and bring this stupid rule to a head before anyone else is injured.

Might help sign players if they know the club has a spine and are prepared to step up?
I'm of the same opinion on this. If you lose a player through injury in an established rep game like an origin fixture or a one off test it's not such a huge kick in the balls. But the NRL continue to create new pointless rep fixtures in what I see as a cash grab that pretty much benefits them with a combination of merchandise sales, ticket sales and income from sponsorships they generate from them. A few years back the players were complaining about burnout from the excessive number of games. And that was prior to the nines, all stars games and the world cup tournaments.Show some balls Dogs and advise the NRL our players are not available for anything other then club games.
I do see your point on this. The players still get paid their full salary even if they cop a season ending injury in these nothing fixtures. And while I don't know exactly what they earn from an all stars appearance, I know that it's a no brainer that they will want to make extra money when they're guaranteed to still be paid in full if they don't get through the game unscathed. So while it's a huge detriment to the club, it's not the end of the world for the players if they're injured. For the most part the players would hate missing games, but if it's a $20-$30k payday it's way too much temptation. And I'm not denying the fact that they probably take some pride from getting the call up either.People are already complaining we can’t attract players. We never would again if we did that
If all the clubs joined in then it would be worthwhile, but standing alone wouldn't accomplish anything anyway, so big risk with no reward.Show some balls Dogs and advise the NRL our players are not available for anything other then club games.
I couldn't be fucked to watch it to be honest. I don't watch much footy outside the Doggies games.Have heard zero about it, considering its being held here in QLD.
Prediction: it will flop and finally kill off this All Stars concept, which had frankly run its course.
Haha I met him late last year he's actually a top bloke to talk to in person. But on the field another person lolI want that dog cut in half and out for the season.
Yh I see him often also, very friendly and happy to chat to anyone. Funny thing is some people on here would probably jerk themselves silly if one of our players did what he did lol.Haha I met him late last year he's actually a top bloke to talk to in person. But on the field another person lol
Seriously STFU why would anyone approve that behaviour?Yh I see him often also, very friendly and happy to chat to anyone. Funny thing is some people on here would probably jerk themselves silly if one of our players did what he did lol.
Still a dog doesn’t matter how much of a top bloke, he went out and deliberately tried to take DWZ out.Haha I met him late last year he's actually a top bloke to talk to in person. But on the field another person lol
And right on cue, the fact you felt the need to defend yourself says it all.Seriously STFU why would anyone approve that behaviour?
Not only was it late but a straight shoulder charge intent to do 1 thing.
Defend my self? you throwing some kenneles under the bus just cause you think his a good bloke lol how the fuck do you support this team.And right on cue, the fact you felt the need to defend yourself says it all.
