They're also on a substantial amount of money compared to Burton and that makes it easier to enter the market and find a replacement. A replacement for Burton is literally just promoting a kid into their 30.
That's through poor management by our club & not being strong in our negotiations. Do you see Melb folding if it doesn't suit them?
I'm giving the bloke a break by NOT HYPING him up over a hand full of games he played in with what you call a rubbish team with a rubbish coach. As I said let's see how he preforms this year before we over hype him and place unrealistic expectations on his shoulders.
Not at all. They've shown how to handle those situations.
Exactly!
We have released starters on big money who we have had to pay and recieved nothing in the past.
I know...shit effort from us! Melb would never let that happen!
You can disclude the players we had to shed due to Dib and Castle F'ing up our salary cap (Woods, Mbye, etc). We couldn't actually take much in return as our salary cap was beyond F'd. It isn't the same. I'm not sure what other players you're referring to in regards to paying them to play elsewhere. There are players like CHN and Reimis who we're not paying anything to play at their new respective clubs, but since they were contracted we should of got something in return, a trade.
They already have more halves than both of the Cleary's have brain cells....between them.
Funny how Brandy conveniently forgot to mention the Panthers signing of former Eels half Salmon.
Absolutely. He could easily force his way out if he was as vocal and as much of a diva as other players who force their way out by being a massive headache or distraction.. But he's doing the right thing by keeping his head down staying quiet and hoping it sorts itself out between his management and the two clubs.
I like the signing of Allan, he's solid, athletic, big
Huge ok
Time to clean the kennel delete all threads and start fresh ? Lmao
