Where's all the negative nancies? Where are all the Gus haters? Where are all the ones that thought CC was out of his depth? Where are all those that wanted Potter instead of CC? Where are all those that still think dogs will finish bottom 4? Where are all those that still think our training methods are too harsh and that our training methods are the cause for our injuries? Where's the Clown crew? Where's 04 dreaming? Where's his cousin Polly? Where's Flanagun? Where are all those that were crying because we let go of Alamoti(no way is he ahead of Critta & Xerri). Where are those that whinge like bitches? They have all evaporated like a fart in the wind as was expected.
Well said pal

IMHO - at the same time in careers Woods has the highest ceiling - skill wise he is probably ready for open age footy BUT physically im not sure if he has developed enough (growth/ training etc) to cope with the physicality at that level.

Oneil is a good footy player - defends. kicks n organises well and is prepared to run straight n deep into the line - Woods is doing all that - but also has better long kicking game and genuine speed.

I'm sure Gus will re-sign him. Sexton won't be here next year, Hutch is a short term stop gap option and the club rate O'Neill highly. He could be in the FG squad next year. Plus we have a tonne of cap space, so there's no reason to think he won't stay.
Still won’t stop teams from offering him big bucks
He’s a local junior tho, product or berala bears. He would love the dogs enough to stay

@04 Dreaming was last seen at Brian To’o’s house retrieving his 2023 Dogs jersey and demanding to know why the mail on Luai’s signature was crook :-).

PS: @PollyPower is now @Magic Burton

Woods is a few years off watching a few of his games this year his attack is great he runs the ball right to the line putting players in to holes but his defence is lacking he seems to get bumped off a lot.
Would be good if O’Neil can step up and get NRL experience over the next couple of years so we don’t have 2 rookie halves if/when Woods gets his defence sorted

But it was barnstorming winger Jeral Skelton, who easily topped the metre count with a staggering 321 metres — 124 of those post-contact. He also set up a try, got two linebreaks, four tackle busts and bagged a well-deserved try in the 71st minute.

Pull the trigger CC, give him Patolos spot...
im with you my beautiful ! Imagine Skelton knocking over Klemmer or even Stefano

With Papalii, Woods, O’Neal & Conti coming through, it’s shades of the West Tigers young guns of Teddy, Moses and Brooks - Hopefully these kids kick on and become long serving players who are recognised positively in years to come.

Joseph O'neill inmo will be ready to blend in aprox 12 months. Already playing above his age and weight in NSW cup. Good speed and defence has an all round kicking and management game. Good luck Kid.
