At Panther he signed Tamou to help with forward development/coming through. He did the same in the halves with Maloney.
And he would love to do the same at the dogs if suitable players at sensible price tag were availible.
They are not available, so he has to build from within.
He is also keeping some available funds should anything become availible.
What more can he do? Serious question?

It’s d-voice. It’s bullshit. Not stirring the pot just sick of people who talk shit.

AFB picked sharks maybe as a superior roster in his eyes or better lifestyle whatever the reason this whole other crap is bs.

We rightfully moved on via Gus instead of looking like dragons ended up being completely played.
This is the same bloke that says the only people in the know are JK, Warburton, Gus and Ciraldo, yet tells us his source told him warriors wanted a Kikau swap (told us this 12 hours after it was posted on Fox sports). FML ‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂‍♂

We attempted to sign both and here's how it all unfolded,
The Warriors wanted either Kikau or Preston as a swap plus a release fee, topped by unrealistic demands by AFB.
if it wasn't for what NZ demanded there was a chance.
Leniu, we approached the first time 3-4 years ago and more than doubled his wages only to come back and say he wants to stay with his brothers at Penrith, again early this year we showed interest in him while having genuinelyl strong chance getting Haas, that was until the useless TPJ told him not to sign...
Would've been good to sign at least one of the two but we didn't, it certainly isn't the end of the world though !
Wow its almost like u are sitting alongside Gus and the players and agents at the negotiation table. Can u answer the following;

Is gus selling the same lines to the players hes trying to sign that he does to the fans eg That we are approaching only yr2 of a 5-10yr rebuild and will struggle to play finals for many yrs to come. Do
U believe painting this bleak picture is costing us some key acquasitions?

Why was he lowballing AFB considering he is top 3 prop in the world and we have a shortage of props and no forward leader?

You have no idea what the reasons were for AFB not being signed. Your strike rate is zero.

He is an absolute hoot this bloke and has more front than David Jones.

@DinkumDog has already laid out the many wrong and sometimes stupid claims of @04 Dreaming and yet he is still in utter denial. It’s actually embarrassing…

That's why mason and omealy are part of tge coaching staff.
To guide the young forwards
Sure that helps but it's not the same as being on the field next to them.

Because Gus knew that he only had a 2023 jersey available for the photo shoot after AFB signed and AFB also said that he wanted to then give the jersey to SJ to wear in a social media post on NYE, so Gus had to factor in the jersey delivery cost across the pond and hence deducted it from AFB’s offer. What a shocking ‘miss’ by Gus, just because he was trying to keep the club’s postage budget in check before the accounts are finalised for the AGM :tearsofjoy::tearsofjoy: #ClownCrew
