Think this might have a bit more to do with the Media constantly speculating over Baz positions with other panthers and just firing few shots over the Bow.....we need to seriously address our relationships with Media more than. with Penrith....our media management is at an all time low....lot of shit talk on here about media but media management big part of professional sport for any organisation....What is the strategy to mange our media relationships.

Fletcher is just fucking with you guys because Trent can't keep his mitts off our players. Burton may well be second guessing his decision, but he signed on the dotted line & will be with you guys next year.

Some of the reactions here are pretty funny though. The push from the Dogs to get him early was a media shit storm, one article from a staff writer about it going the other way and you are all losing your minds.

I don't know why you dont all just jump ship & become Panthers supporters. If Trent got his way in a few years your team will just be Penrith in blue & white jerseys. Kind of ironic, blue & white were our colours pre 1967.
It's good to be Cocky when your on top and enjoy it while you can, but ( Fetch is not Fucking us now we're fucking with him ) We didn't start the fire , I'd rather jump of a 10 story building than jump ship to join a bunch of stuck up, arrogant, piece of shit hillbilly club that has no Idea how to handle success which has taken you only 70yrs achieve , & thank God you left our colors alone and went with your baby shit brown , Poofy Pink, & gay pride rainbow jumpers which suit you guys right down to the ground, I think Burton will enjoy getting out of those rags and into a real NRL jersey , He is going to look great. Tell Fetch when you get back to your own boring forum ( what are you doing on our forum anyway?) that the Bulldogs are going to enjoy playing the panthers next you with our new team led buy Burton, Naden, and any other players from you salary cap cheated team that would like to join Trent at the Bulldogs, we will have plenty of money to accommodate them. Oh! and Tell Ivan the Terrible ( father of Frankenstein ) to go and get fucked.

Ps the way the panthers are carrying on. Yes they’ve won a lot of games. But they still haven’t done shit. There beginning to piss a lot of people off.

Hopefully Khoury comes out and makes it known to everyone that we are after JFH, Brian To'o, Kikau.....

I would be throwing 800k at Kikau and 600k at JFH through Rothfield, Weidler, Bulldog Ritchie....the absolute works!

Make those fuckers pay top dollar for every player targeted

It’s a difficult situation. What would you do if you were Matt Burton ? Play in a team that will be premiership contenders , even win a few compared to a side that will struggle to make the finals ? How important is it to play in the halves ? Is money a factor ? i have no doubt that Burton would prefer to stay at Penrith.
Unless the Dogs can find a decent 7 and 9, they will again be also rans in 2021
How is it any different now than when he signed but?
We were never going to be up there this year and Panthers were always going to be pushing for another GF.
He’d still be down the pecking order as a half at Penrith and if he wanted to play in the centres and the Panthers knew he had the potential to be great there, then why not just re-sign him?
Fletcher just twisting the knife it seems.

600k for JFH? He's like worth 700k minimum.

You cant blame us the way the season is going at the moment.
No one is taking that small glimmer of hope from us that we can win a game next year ...not even Brian Fletcher lol

Anyone believing the Dogs will release Burton should take a deep breath and maybe have a lie down. Khoury and his board are up for re-election in Feb ‘22 - they would be signing their death warrants as the leadership group at our club if this happened. It won’t happen, it’s just media noise and the Cats salty that we snatched a future superstar from under their noses.
Valid point,all I’m saying is the modern day player is not concerned about their current contract,they whinge and cry until they are granted a release,terry matterson signed a contract with the tigers,and parra offered a bigger deal,and went to the eels,he still had a year to go at the tigers.
