    What happened to Max King?

    Everyone said he was the one guy that has not stopped trying but this year it seems to me he doesn’t put much effort in. something seems up. Am I seeing things or has anyone noticed this?

    Do we want killers or nice characters? Let's end this.

    Ok I am getting tired of Kwnnelers saying we want mongrel/bulldog bite/ aggression. Then when we have players on our radar that embody these, like Maguire and Lodge, everyone seems to change tune and want nice guys. Maybe it isnt the same people, I dont know. So can we definitiveky make a...

    Rumour Isaacs Tago

    Hey guys. I know for a fact that Gus had a coffee with Tagos people last week. Whether it’s just a friendly catch up or for recruitment I don’t know but he might be on the radar for us.

    Josh Maguire available

    Hey guys. Heard word that Josh is in Australia after getting released by Warrington. I think it might be worth throwing or offering a couple of hundred thousand his way on a one year deal. Good depth and an enforcer and is such a hard ****. worth throwing hat in the ring for prop depth...

    Matt Burton Fullback?

    The more I think about it the more it makes sense. He is a mediocre ball player but a sensational runner/stepper. He has a big boot. That can be utilised at the back. At Fullback he can run and chime in as the third half. Best of both worlds and utility of his strengths. He also was fullback...

    Explain to me the appeal of Alamoti?

    Everyone I know are scratching their heads what fans see in this guy? Becoming more divide than Mortimer I see people here wanting to make him a priority. All I see is a junior who was known for his elusiveness that has bulked up and has no pace or power. I thought he did the small thing right...

    Why does our club hate halfbacks?

    Ever since I was a baby I dont ever see any emphasis on the club focusing on this position, why? It is the most important position. We bought Flanagan, a roosters reject. Before him we had Lewis. Just a rookie that tries and tackles. Before that Mbye. A rookie. Before him Hokko, who played well...

    Best 5 coaches of our club all time ranked?

    We haven’t actually had that many coaches until recently when we started swapping alot. In my opinion this is our top coaches: 1. warren Ryan. He did some Amazing things with an ovberrated swuaf and won a few titles. 60% win rate 2. Des Hasler 2x grand finals at 56% win rate says it all. Some...

    Is tHis a good idea for widening the junior talent pool?

    Was thinking just then how to expand our smallish junior player base and I had an idea that maybe the doggs can establish a program targeting children/ teenagers who have fallen by the wayside and found themselves in juvenile detention, problem schools etc. No shortage of this in the area.

    Should we re-sign Flanagan? (Read before commenting)

    Question at its core is in the title but hear me out. Let’s just say, that as expected, Flanno improves a little bit. Not a bunch, but a bit. He does his job in the sense makes hard tackles. Pinpoint kicks, and keeps game error free and allows Burton to do his thing (or whoever is his halves...

    Would there be any interest in this?

    I am looking at getting into writing and I was thinking of writing some Nasheed fan fiction and posting it here. Stories were the central character is Nasheed and adventures with him. But, I don’t want to do this if it upsets the forum or it’s seen as trolling so thought I would ask. Just...

    Our Greatest Fullback ever?

    Ok third time lucky since the last two had controversy. I made sure I included Les Johns so the old timers don’t get snappy. Should be a tight contest between Barba and Silva I think. Patten might be a smokie.
