The whole thing is painful as a supporter. I dont wish ill of the bloke, I actually like his grit and determination. I wish he was fit. But like others have said, I just think he'll be a distraction this season. I suppose Im still annoyed giving his history that he didnt do everything in his power during the off season to prepare for 2020 instead of risking injury playing rep. He siad he wanted to repay the Dogs, they where his words. Anyways, it couldnt have resulted in a worse outcome. Lets hope somehow our halves pull a Jeanie out of a hat and make it difficult for him to re-enter the picture.

for sure.. I'm not going to say anything bad about a guy who doesn't want to give up the thing he loves... once it's over it's over.. so I can definitely see why he continues to fight... there would still be a few years left if he could survive.... but everybody except probably him can see that it's all in vain at this point, unfortunately

Possible,communication is not hard though
The club does seem to be doing a poor job of communicating with its fan base, but I'm also not a member of the club, so naturally there is no direct contact.
In the past we fortified our club walls and kept our secrets to ourselves. This served us well, so if This is how they want to lay things, then it's fine with me.

iv been trying to get info from the club via emails n phone calls about junior rep trials - NOTHING - not a reply, nothing. Extremely disappointing - promised much delivered little in the communication side of things.
So you could go as far as saying you're hearing diddly squat from them?

Hopefully a mid season England stint gets him off the books and we can crab a couple of good kids from other clubs wanting a crack.

That's what it's all about opinion,and I appreciate your opinion,but that fortified walls bullshit worked ok in the 70s and 80s ,not today communication is avery important tool,when you are running,an organisation,worth almost 2 billion,and my club wants $600 bucks from me for 2 tickets,and don't even have seating arrangements,??

Worked well in the 90s and early 2000s too. But I get your point. And I agree that a great club like ours should not leave fans hanging in regards to membership details etc. But I also don't expect them to tell us every time someone farts.
There maybe there is no news to tell anyway.

Point taken,I guess people will have to have a look,at other nrl clubs app's,to see what I mean,and make an opinion.

I see your point mate it definitely should be figured out earlier and I wonder when the club received the allocations from Bankwest

Let's keep in mind Bankwest is run by VenuesLive, as is ANZ - it's a State Government department, so decent chance of - ahem - bureaucracy - that likely impacts the club.
There's no question the club needs to improve its communication, particularly around membership sales/renewals - and I've provided that feedback this week - but not everything is within its direct control either.

Our media department definitely has no clue. This I will absolutely agree with.

if Foran was a builder or any other type of tradie he'd be chased all over the countryside by ACA...……. he should retire in to politics, where you can do fuckall and get paid heaps
