That roster requires recruitment.. Will take a decade to assemble that team the rate we are going.. And by then they will be retiring..

Nasheed here,
Getting really sick to death of every man and his camel here having half naked opinions. So I thought I'd suck up my shyness and crates a thread about getting the Bulldogs on track and how to do it.

I was speaking to Gene who is a Roosters supporter and he asked me what I think Makes Robinson a master coach. I answered 'balance'. It's something that he shares with both Bellamy and Stuart (Stuart learnt from his mid 2010s days) and its what the dogs don't have and it makes me cringe when I hear ppl thirsty for random wingers and such for us.

So I'm going to provide a blueprint. I have to declare Holland exempt because of all the controversy surrounding him so I'll leave him out for now.

Firstly, we have our pillars of the team:

Jackson- a robust toiler (lets call them group A) who fights hard. Makes tackles and generally puts his body out there. Every team needs this type. We have it. But it isn't some gold rare diamond. But it's good no less.

Foran- a premium well rounded number 7. Lets just leave injuries aside right now.

Thompson- untested, but a super athlete taht can go 80 mins and do some zip here and there.
So we now have a skeleton Ideal blue print of this;

1. Attacking and supportive fullback
2. Tall winger
3. Strike/big centre
4. Defensive oriented centre
5. Big Hit ups winger
6. Attacking 5/8
7. Foran (organisational/attacking)
8. Big black prop
9. Fast energetic hooker.
10. Thompson
11. Attacking second row
12. Jackson
13. *TBA* on strategy.

lets compare it to the balance we have now
1. Fast one dimensional ex winger
2. Fast small winger
3. Skillful Ball playing centre
4. Ex winger one dimensional centre
5. Safe winger
6. Defensive 5/8
7. Foran
8. Toil group A prop
9. Fast once dimensional hooker
10. Defensive prop
11. Jackson toiler
12. Vacant
13. Toiler
Now we can see from the above that Hoppa And a few others aren't right for the team. The balance is all wrong.

we can use DWZ as a winger, as we can Reimis Smith.

we need some size to counter the smaller forwards we have and have punch. Same in the centres.

JMK I think might work with the new 6 again rule.

I also think we should enquire about Milford. He's on a lot of money and broncos are going to be in panic mode to change rosters after their belting.

so a team like this I propose;

1. Milford
2. DWZ
3. Josh Morris (lets suck him balls deep to return)
4. Cotric
5. Smith
6. Josh Reynolds
7. Kieran Foran
8. TPJ
9. JMK
10. Thompson
11. Bateman
12. Jackson
13. Michael Chee Kam

14 averillo
15 Napa
16 Toomaga
17 packer
As soon as I read Milford and Reynolds you must be pissed!

no because you're missing the point. We need to identify the type of players needed for balance and sailor and Saab arent it.

if we go for a winger. We need a big guy.
Sailor for fullback fool! I think your missing screws in your head! Try being a little less racist! I hope someday soon a big black prop knocks you into next week! Dumbass

The question is do we have people that can do that in the head office and the jury is out on that at the minute.[/QUOTE]

* Both Morris boys gone when we could at least of had one side looked after instead of f’n Crichton and Smith ffs

* developed talent we are “supposed to focus on now” like Harper walking to Manly

* missing Mitchell Tedesco (we had him) and fuck knows who else over the last few years.

* watching talent like Klemmer Finucane Rona Cook just fuck off without a fight. We always get raped of our best and left with Tolman Hoppa and co.

* linked with Reynolds McCullough and Goodwin. Who’s next? Sandor Earl? Kenny Dowell? Aiden Guerra? Tony Williams again?

* watching club captain Ennis get punted and go win a comp elsewhere.

* watching our next club captain get a vasectomy by OUR OWN CLUB and turn him into a wimp after the Good Friday 2015 clash. Was never the mongrel we loved again and let go. But hey, the NRL patted us on the back.

* axing a guy (our best back rower) for hooking up a girl of legal age consentually. Morally wrong, but not illegal. The other bloke fair enough, did it at school.

* having a NFI board who has been in for long enough now blame the last board yet purchases Napa DWZ Britt and Crichton...

probably so so so much more, I’m tired...

I love my club so so so much. They are a huge part of my life, but this board and the last, this coach and the last can ALL GET FUCKED!!! You’ve ALL KILLED OUR CLUB!!! All of you hang you f’n heads!!!

I get the feeling that alot of our fans here just scour whos off contract and just go 'omg player x is available?? WHADDA SICK PLAYER! SIGN D ****!" and then lobby it on the forum, it spreads like Corona and then everyone gets sexually frustrated when it doesnt happen.

Im not sure if the dogs management are thinking like me or you, but the Thompson evidence suggests they were very pointed and calculated with the Thommo signing.

That said, the balance is making moves on who is available at the same time, and moves we have to make.

Im surprised we didnt make a move for blowjob leilua personally.

If we can nail Bateman and one other big name and 1 or 2 other lesser names we should limp along to a decent job recruitment wise.

As much as we want a star, we cant overlook the low hanging fruit opportunities.

Why Sailor for fullback? He's never played there. He's a winger and centre and you want to replace a a player who's a winger/centre because Pay plays him out of position?

fullback is A precious position, we need a specialist who's stuck behind a superstar.
I mention Milford because I'm telling you that Broncos are on the verge of panicking and they will need to clear some space and we need to be there to get their offloads.

Only player I want from Broncos is stagg,fafitia or paas.

I think that what makes Robinson a master coach (along with Bellamy), is NOT having a fkn salary cap! It's pretty easy when you can sign any SOO or International player you want, not to mention a swag of top-rated juniors from the other clubs.
