Gussy will be Bulltadpole and not Bulltoad until he has a forward epiphany….

Someone like a Ryan James would of been good for cover until we get a few players back not sure what he's up to these days but he was good for us those 2 loan games he played.

Nasheed here.
We don’t actually need a props yo.
We gots 7.
Pele
Thompson
Patolo
TPJ
Suttons
King
Hughes
Also RFM (can easily do)

That’s more than enough for a top 30 squad.

Of course, we knows that most are injured atm.
So we are short for two weeks but that’s not enough motivation to go out and buy one as whoever u but will not want to come for 5 months only.
Maybe missed a trick on woods but I think there is bad blood there.

where Gus DID fuck up is promoting Hoffman into the 30 when we had an injury crisis.
We should have targeted a prop in reserves who has little ambition beyond this year.

I suggested Adam Cuthbertson who is playing QLD Cup but apparently that was such an absurd suggestion because mods deleted the posts where I called for it and got told off. But I don’t see issue with it.

Nathan brown wouldn’t have been a bad signing tbh for a year or so
Keyword be ‘or so’

if Nathan Brown was content with a 6 months cheap deal we fo sho would have signed him!
But don’t u get that players want multi years deals??
He isn’t part of 2024 plans

We should have signed Taupau for a season. Broncos already had 2 props better than ours and they got him. Eels similar and they were chasing him hard.
We had 7.5 prop we didn’t need anotwhr who is a slow play the ball type.
Pre reason I mean.

I wasn’t suggesting we sign woods, I said why aren’t we signing a prop, even on loan
Because loan is not a thang no more.
That was a temporary measure introduced during Covid, and mainly because of the warriors situation.
Of course you could do some sort of handshake deal with another club but that’s all too hard and messy.

Again I’ll go on record and say it.
The answer is ADAM CUTHBERTSON!
He just returned from England as is playing QLD cup.
There is your 2 month deal.
