Lol what?

I must of missed it lol

Already a contender for buy of the year.
And deserves to be in contention to achieve a players life long dream of being in SOO contention if good enough.

Imagine what it would do to benefit his game.. and stare down the DT dills who said you go to Bulldogs and your rep career dies.

Very impressive performance from Josh last night which made me think of Pat Carrigan. What Curran offers is similar and he has a similar build, but he’s not quite at that level yet. He stepped up big time though in King’s absence.

Played 58 minutes - 18 total runs (16 hitups) for 156m, 51pcm, 2 tb, 1offload and 35 tackles with only 1 missed.

If he can produce like that consistently we’ll be onto a winner.
He was a solider for us through the middle last night... Without him we get belted.

If Ciraldo does not want to start Sam Hughes, then Curran could keep his starting prop position (when Preston & Kikau are occupying the edges), leaving the 13 open for Mann.

Salmon is bench at best, and should be there only for balance, if needed at all.
Salmons missed tackle cost us the game - not his first miss for the night either

Really ? What if Fox doesn't step on the touchline in the first half and scores or Burton has a 100% night goal kicking ? Nobody lost us the game, not Salmon or Hutchison,the ref didn't lose us the game . . . We just didn't win

We replaced tpj with this guy and saved coin, Curran has already put in more work then tpj did in his entire stint at the dogs.
That’s the thing. So many people criticised the recruitment but every one we got are willing to work. Mann, Salmon, Hutch, Turpin, Tracey and Curran are all willing to roll their sleeves up and do the hard yards and we can see the difference in us being competitive in most games due to this. Some don’t belong in first grade but they are decent backups (Turpin, Hutch and Salmon) but regardless, the point is they targeted players with a work ethic, so at least we’ll be a chance in most games.

More like a Finucane or Jackson rather than Carrigan. Carrigan has way more impact and a world class offload.
