Official Dogs sign Reed Mahoney (4 year deal)

[UpDaDoggies1935]

Fair enough, i think api would suit us better tho

No his getting old now

 

[Chris Harding]

Mahoney doesn't have the speed of Damien Cook or Creativity of Korisau but he's definitely a smart hooker with good vision.

Lamb was the same type of player. Not fast; but where he needed to be - and that's what we want.

 

[Como Dog]

Parras pack is easily better.

Might be but at least we could go much better than previous years with this pack. They should be able to get the job done.

 

[Como Dog]

He is Plan B.

Gus likes him.

I'm inclined to make him plan A if the price is much better.

 

[wendog33]

If Baz can get a running offload style, off Vaughan similar to Paulo, our pack only "marginally" weaker than Parra 4 above

 

[Mr Beast]

Id rather keep cotric, is mahoney a gamebreaker?? If not why waste the coin

We need an actual hooker that can player hooker and no pretender hookers

Thought i saw somewhere the QLD teams were interested at the 500k mark, if so we should be well in the mix. What is he on at the moment ?

 

[Cappuccino]

I was thinking that too bro
This looks to be a celebration dinner / welcome to the club , throwback to how Bullfrog conducted business

Also, didn’t Gus tweet some big news for dogs fans or something of that nature?

I thought that was about a warriors player? I can't keep up with this place and gus' tweets

Over at 1 eyed eel they say he's on 460k. They reckon we are offering 600K for 4 years.

Great, he can get a pay rise and not have to play for Para, win win for the kid

He knows Arthur has hit his ceiling.
Let's hope Barrett has a long way to go

 

[Stinger]

It’s a hard one. Definitely much better than we have, although he plays behind a pretty brutal pack at Parra. We sure as shit ain’t got that.

The inclusion of TPJ and Vaughn will add a bit of punch to our pack in the middle along with Ava. But if Waddell makes it into our pack then I’ll be worried.

Barrett has just hit the tin roof garden shed ceiling [emoji23]

 

[ddt192]

he must be signed sealed and delivered otherwise why would you have a dinner/meeting in the public

Make them Parra scum shit bricks about it for 2 weeks haha

 

[Teddybear]

Hard to beat silks chinese at the crown melnourne

Both can be useful in a developing team.
Mahoney puts in more solid and consistent performances. Api less consistent but mor X-factor.

In a good team that is top 4, you would probably take Mahoney as it generally means you have established players in other spine positions and just need a solid player.

In our team, you could take either.

Ive seen enough games where Parra has been locked even with opposition teams and Mahoney has found a way to ignite his team with a great dummy half play or try.

Id still prefer Cheese but would take Mahoney. Api would be my third choice

 

[Marki]

Our pack isn't as strong as Parra's but it will be massively improved with Vaughan, TPJ etc. And addition by subtraction with Elliott gone..

It has nothing to do with size....
Its tye way the team plays and the way the team trains....

In previous years, we could have signed God and still wouldnt dent the opposition, because our whole gamestyle of how to advance down the field with the ball was massively flawed. That is Desball.

Even when we signed someone who played "correctly" such as CHN, it didnt last long, as they soon became morphed in our shitty gamestyle.

Its only the mass changes to our roster next season that gives me confidence that we have removed most of the weeds and our grass can grow.

Its been proven twice before and im confident it will happen again in the next 2 years

Spot on.

Brandon still first choice.
Mahoney second when you factor what you said plus a bloke early 20’s vs 30
By time he would be here?
