Ryan Sutton To The Dogs

[Bulldog1966]

Sounds like a perfect dogs recruit, specialist average

Yep cheaper than Thommo but twice as shit relax kennellers I jest...kind of.
How much are we likely signing him for? I know maybe significantly cheaper but he is the same size as Luke at best but with less grunt/speed? I could be wrong as I haven't watched him much.

He’s signed for $500, $275k less than what thommo will earn next year if he’s still with us !!

Where's the duty of care?

If he fails and then cries I'd tear up his contract effective immediately.

Ricky Stuart had him playing on an edge from what I saw. His 1 error was from a shocking pass from wighton who should have had the error put against him.

 

[Malla]

Didn't stand out at all

To be fair nobody stands out at Canberra they are shit

 

[S.B.W_Jnr]

Nothing special barely gets involved in attack. Wouldn't spend more than 250-300k.

Agree, personally I'll be annoyed if he signs for amount Atcros mentioned. Hoping Thompson stays, we haven't played to his strengths at all yet.

I know players have to play primarily to instructions but what's stopping Luke from being available for offloads ala Walmsley to Thompson type plays?

It's so disappointing and must be frustrating for Thommo when it was such a successful tactic for him. He needs to make it happen for himself!

2 days ago I was talking to someone in the know, he mentioned 850k Thompson is on.
Imagine what Gus could do with such an amount if it gets freed up ???

I have a feeling " his heart isn't in the joint "but could be wrong !

When you are getting shopped around it would be hard

I sense that myself. Hence why I asked Actros if he was happy here. He answered yes but ...

His time here has been mired in whispers and innuendo from the start and the club has been a shambles of its former self also so all round it's been unfortunate for all parties.

Also played big minutes, and it was his first game this year.

Please tell me you’re joking.
Not worth more than $350k

 

[B-Train]

Sutton is a good prop. No one should overreact to his first game of the season against the Storm where the whole game was played in either teams 20..

The numbers he put up the last two years when getting big minutes were very good. I'll use that sample size over one game against Melbourne.

 

[wendog33]

Sutton looks like for like with Stimson

Remember, every club must spend 95% of the salary cap every year...Terrible rule forces teams to over spend on bad roster !!!
Use you imagination, who do you think it was spent on ???
People would be shocked to know of how much previously been spent on very ordinary players !

His performances did not warrant his price tag,
Originally he shopped himself around but didn't eventuate, the Dogs would not pay overs for him to play elsewhere.

No way we're paying that, please no

 

[wendog33]

If we are paying $500k for Sutton....Gus Out!
