We can do that at the same time as buying players you idiot... fuck Tolman off
So clubs should pander to every off contract player so they feel valued? Come on mate, every club has players off contract every year, and the ball is deservedly very much in their court! The player who is off contract should be the one trying to convince their club that they are worth keeping, not the club making sure the player feels wanted. Especially when they are shit.So nobody thinks he has a valid point about uncertainty in the squad?
Uncertainty is the biggest killer of productivity in the work place and I think it is have a big influence in the dressing room and reflecting with the performance on the field.
The issue with the tenure of the coach is of course the biggest problem. However the club does also need to make decisions on the future of players who are off contract this season and if they are not wanted for next season tell them sooner rather than later.
I realize that such conversations usually happen after the 30 June deadline. Those players off contract this year I assume Brown, Lichaa, Martin & Olive will not be back. The others Fulalo, Harper, Katoa & Tualau I will get offered another contact.
so please explain what talent is required in order to show hunger in kick chase and line speed in defence ??You left out
4) Trying as hard as they can but they just don't have the talent

Or more accurately, that's just Tolman contradicting himself. Just another reason he should stick to his job!This thread is a prime example of confirmation bias, people only reading the words that support their already established opinion and ignoring the words that don't. For example, I thought this was very to the point;
"Obviously, we do need to try and buy some quality players and bring them to the club"
Obviously many didn't read that or more accurately chose to ignore it.

The only thing missing from Tolman's resumè is moderator on the kennel.Tolman is far too involved in everything in the club. He's in the leadership group, trying to run the attack, giving recruitment suggestions.
He would delete every 4th post on here.The only thing missing from Tolman's resumè is moderator on the kennel.
Thanks for pointing that out. For all we know he may also have pointed out to the person asking the question that guys like Toomaga or Kalache deserved consideration. The media don't always quote everything someone says. I really wouldn't want to buy thirty players since new recruits with experience are probably going to cost us more than juniors that might be able to do just as well.This thread is a prime example of confirmation bias, people only reading the words that support their already established opinion and ignoring the words that don't.

“Just because they have a lot of money to spend why can’t it be on developing players here and the players currently here at the moment. Obviously, we do need to try and buy some quality players and bring them to the club but we’ve got quality players here as well,” Tolman said.
“Just because they have a lot of money to spend why can’t it be on Adam Elliott and good country boys currently here at the moment. Obviously, we do need to try and buy some quality players that nobody else wants and bring them to the club but we’ve got quality players here as well (like Aiden Tolman) that deserve significant pay upgrades” Tolman said.
“I think if you can land marquee players, it does attract other players, that’s part of the game but you can’t just go out and buy your whole team.”
“I think if you can land marquee players with this complete shitcunt of a coach, it does attract other players that nobody else wants, that’s part of the game but you can’t just go out and buy your whole team unless you are the Storm, Roosters, or Broncos.”
or on the 5th anywhereThis is laughable. Worried about his own future. Maybe focus on what you’re doing on the field champ and don’t touch the ball in the opposition 20 ever
