No one because they can't make competent signings.Why would this be the type of signing we would make ? What injured cooked players have they signed on big money to date ?

Haaaahaaaahaaaa!!!!!!With the whole lockdown going on I've been rubbing sideways too!
I'm not keen on Savea because it will probably take big coin to get him over and is no sure thing to be a decent NRL player.Not interested in him either, 33 and hasn't played league since ??? I just don't see where the value is in this type of signing, rather risk it with a big play for Savea if we're looking into union buy even then that's a bit of a high risk move for us.
I just want these clowns at the club to get their fucking shit sorted. All they've done is talk shit...player development has been no where near good enough like they claimed it would be while the "Bulldogs DNA" was an absolute myth.
These c*** conned so many of our fans and these last few years have been completely wasted, called it from day one that they were just going to sit back and wait for the cap to clear itself. Don't trust them in the slightest to make the best decisions moving forward from here.
So what competent signings did you want them to do? DWZ , Stimson , Britt , Meaney, Thompson look like competent signings for the money we have. Just because the board isn’t over spending on what other clubs are paying for free agents I don’t see that as a bad thing.No one because they can't make competent signings.
Hahahaha just trying to get you to have a josh reynolds blow up.How many games has he even played in those two years? Lol. He isn't better than Foran and I don't want him starting over Wakeham or Averillo...better than JMK but still not good enough. Best role for him is off the bench on a low wage but I don't see that happening and I don't see him staying fit enough.

Lol here we go with the cap excuse, biggest load of rubbish. Our recruitment is no where near good enough and some of you lot are way too easily fooled and giving this lot a free pass. I've said before what I think about our recruitment and honestly can't be bothered going over it again.So what competent signings did you want them to do?

That's the big issue for me, there appears to a lack of genuine plan with our recruitment and targetting of players with key skills that are lacking in the squad and rather us just trying to get lucky with a signing or two.DWZ - winger getting paid as a fullback
Stimson - lol. His off season proved he was made to lool good at storm. Lucky for CHN being axed, only way he got into the 17.
Britt - jury is out. Potentially a good buy.
Meany - fullback playing wing. Could be a great FB. Will always be a below average winger
Thompson - could work out as much as he could flop. If he flops, alot of cap space wasted
Yes I probably wouldn't sign him but he's defenitely someone I would be keeping an eye on.I'm not keen on Savea because it will probably take big coin to get him over and is no sure thing to be a decent NRL player.
I think the player development has been pretty good to be fair they just don't use them and favour plodders.
The biggest concern for me is that there are more holes getting created in the roster then they are fixing.
Buzz article says we’re chasing Ben teo, James Maloney and Reynolds and one more
Unreal signings. Too bad it’s 5 years too late.Buzz article says we’re chasing Ben teo, James Maloney and Reynolds and one more
And this is why I refuse to donate to the club... they cant be trusted to spend the money wisely.Buzz article says we’re chasing Ben teo, James Maloney and Reynolds and one more
Back when all this started they said 2021 was when we had “clear air”. I thought by this stage we would have a fairly solid squad that would be on the edge of the 8 and then we go to the player market to find the 2 or 3 players that would put us over the top into top 4 contention. It just hasn’t happened. There has been a little bit of roster improvement but it does feel like they have just treaded water for the last couple of years. They will already have their excuses lined up too in corona and the port stuff. Other clubs don’t sit back and wait until everything is perfect they work around it and find ways.Yes I probably wouldn't sign him but he's defenitely someone I would be keeping an eye on.
When I say development i meant more in regards to the development of our roster like you mentioned. They've been here for years and how many players do we have established in their roles? Wingers playing fullback, wingers playing centre, no halfback, no balance in the forward back, etc. They've built and developed fuck all so far.
They need to stop reading the KennelDailyTelegraph is reporting we are after James Maloney, Reynolds and Ben Teo....... Cant open it. Imagine 2021 having Thompson, Maloney and Teo added, yes please.
