News Nick Meaney on 2KY

[dogwhisperer]

Meaney along with averillo could benefit with the presence of JAC next year in how to utilize their speed in attack and more importantly, putting their body on the line defensively.

Well that's the thing isn't it. We can't pay big money for all our players because we have a cap. We can't have 5 JAC's in the team.
If you're worst player in the 17 can offer something and in Meaney's case the speed, then maybe players like JAC, Cotric etc can bring out the best out of these players

 

[CrittaMagic69]

It’s ironic that probably the worst coach in modern bulldogs history and the one that signed him up would make fun of him.

And reported to be on around 300k per season with us lol.

And people want to make excuses about our cap issues being the reason we have players like Meaney. Surely we could have signed someone better on that money.

That was always my issue with the previous lot, but all we heard was bs spin from certain people at the club and posters on here supported that rubbish. It's pretty clear that what little money we did have we invested poorly and the only pull we had was Pay signing duds he coached in 20's on overs.

Thank God there was change last year across the club because we know damn well we wouldn't have signed shit after Cotric for 21 and not even have been active in the market for 22.

We would have been getting the likes of Chad Townsend, Keegan Hipgrave and Josh Reynolds if Pay was here with the old admin.

To be fair the board did shut down Pay’s request on Grub - and rightly so.

Townsend would've been horrible.. lol

LOVELY.!!!

Anytime a Meaney thread comes up I always think of the below quote.

Mr. Invisible - Nick Meaney hits the defensive line like a light crosswind.

 

[bulldogsmyte]

Absolutely mate. If we're going to lose at least go down swinging. The boring and conservative one out play we've been obsessed with over the last few years has killed us. I can live with us making mistakes if we're at least trying to score points and not just going through the motions and completing our sets just to get our completion rate up

Spot on. No point in completing 100% of sets if they are unproductive, predictable and never put the opposition under pressure. TB will take us back to our glory days of the Entertainers in attack of the 70's and early 80's and Dogs of War in defence of the mid 80's

 

[flamebouyant]

Ye

You can’t have 30 superstars in your squad.

There’s 14 off contract end of 2021 so yes some will go - but unlikely all. Interested to see who improves under Baz before making calls this far out, not to mention who else becomes available closer to 2022.

Yes you can! Just ask the rorters!

You really need to stop pulling numbers out of your arse, some people actually believe you ....................


Go Dogs

 

[Mr Shhh]

I haven’t been this excited since I saw Demi Moore in Striptease.

 

[bradtalo]

Yep I couldn’t agree more. Watching the dogs the past 4 or 5 years has been an absolute punish. The vast majority of our games have been bludgers and are tough to sit through.

I am actually looking forward to watching our games this year and being entertained. Since about mid 2016 we have looked terrible with the ball (not to mention Tolman getting in the way all of the time).

I don’t expect miracles from Baz but I think everyone agrees we will see significant improvement in our attack from last year. Not sure about the defensive side of things yet but that doesn’t need to improve nearly as much as the attack

Yes with Tolman missing alone that's a great start for us. Looks like the Sharks won't be scoring as many points this year. Less try assists for Johnson with Tolman in the friggin way often. Actually he might not be such a ball hog there since he's new to that team.

 

[The ReignMan]

Nice work Spoonman - appreciate it. You saved me 8 minutes

I love the fact that Baz is directly involved in the training - our set plays have been horrible/non-existsent over the last few years so I'm looking forward to finally seeing some attractive and winning football

They’ve been shithouse since shifty retired lets be honest here lol

 

[silva]

Hopefully he gets a run at fullback for Bankstown sports

 

[Noeasyday]

Hopefully he gets a run at fullback for Bankstown sports

Not even Mounties?

He’s right.

 

[Sandra's Bollocks]

So Barrett gets involved in training runs? Pfft... big deal. I wanna know how many GPS trackers and cameras he has set up? Or did Despot forget to switch them off before he left?

 

[Baby Blues]

Meaney is a good kid. Hope he hangs around, in saying that though I think he'd be a good fit for the warriors at fullback as Fusitua and Maumalo would take alot of pressure of him in regards to hard carries in red zone

I think Dufty will end up at the Warriors to take over from RTS
