Lewis is the worst half to ever play any form of football for 125 years

[Nasheed]

Serious question. Was Burton better this year for us than Lewis would’ve been?

Burton has a MUCH higher ceiling Uleh but on the surface and reality of it Lewis would have been better.
Better defender, kicking is 50/50 and has hood vision in passing it.

Lewis is far from the worst half ever to play the game.

Cogger and Lewis, proof the Dogs have no patience in the halves, give them three years then if they dont respond to what a short kicking game is.

I think you could just about take any NSW Cup std half, and he would look good in that Penrith team. Same as when Storm were at their peak some years back. Several of their “stars” were found out badly at other clubs, when they were not surrounded by Cronk/Slater/Smith/Inglis.

Or we are just plain unlucky to have dunderheads in Cogger, Lewis and Flanagan who could never be trained in little trouble maker with the ball attitude.

The Prince was too cowardly to take on Walker front on so he had to Judo him from behind. Summed up the Prince of one 2 saiyans right there

You’ve got to admit it was pretty damn funny, though.

Have to agree!!

Cogger is now a premiership winner and played a huge role in the Panthers come back, No idea how Lewis got picked ahead of him, always thought Cogger was better but wasn't given a fair go.

If he was given twice as many games at the Bulldogs, do you think he would have developed?
Personally I dont think so.
I cant remember the last time we developed a gun spine player.
Looking at it bluntly, I think the best thing the Dogs did for his development was let him go.
Hopefully those years are behind us, only time will tell.

That was at a time when the club was run by complete clowns.

Our track record of development is a disaster, I'd say since 2013 onwards (thanks Todd Greenturd & Co) the development has been cooked. Barba is the last elite spine player. We had Reed Mahoney in our systems and even screwed that one up.

The shock to me is that for being so badly run we still had enough fight due to the leadership of Jackson to avoid multiple spoons.

We should have got Cogger back. He wouldn't have cost much. Could have been the organising 7 we need. Then have Luai outside him

Yeah its been pretty dismal for years. Avo in the Storm system the last 3 years probably would have excelled.
Its one thing to buy juniors, its another to manage, develop and transition them through the grades to first grade over the years.
Thats why I was happy when we signed Gus who has the experince to help us get back to where we belong.

This year we had Flanagan, Burton, Reed and Sexton on the field at the same time. I’d say we have the bigger clowns now

A cogger luai combo would be horrible.
Luai is overrated and a horrible human
He is the last player I ever want to see at our club.
He would absolutely offer us nothing but bad headlines in the papers.

Most on here don't like Luai and I agree but if we can't get Dearden we might have to go with Luai because we have a good chance of getting him with his connections to Ciraldo and other ex teammates. He has potential to be a 7

No he doesn't sheeeeeeeeesssh.
And the Kennel is almost unanimous in opposition about recruiting that Pos and rightly so. Hopefully some alternate opportunities present themselves in the mean time
