    You fullas can sign Fus' off us at the warriors. He's like Maumalo doesn't want to fight for his spot in the team so citing personal reasons for not being selected free up our cap.

    Lodge, Pangai, Isaako and Oates all told to look elsewhere.

    Like I get Lodge is overpaid and Pangai can be a bit flakey but really? They're like their best two players along with Haas.

    Smart work by Kevvie. Offload all of our best players, and chip in for their wage elsewhere. Smart way to build is to completely destroy the club first.

    Especially Lodge. He's been our best player this year.

    For such a seemingly nice and relaxed guy it appears Walters is extremely hard to please. Is it 35 players he's used so far this year? It's becoming one of the favourite things to check every team list Tuesday, whos in the halves for the Broncos?

    I don't even have to wait, Cribb generally updates me on Mondays from the leaks at training. Walters is an absolute dud, as expected. His refusal to use Oates and Bullemor, his Turpin rotations(Playing him either 30 or 80mins when ideally he should be at 50-60) his bench rotations, and his reluctance to drop the actual players he should. I mean, it took him 3 months to realise Isucko wasn't a fullback, and instead of just moving him to where he is first grade standard, he moved him to ISC.

    Now his solution, is to release 2 of the clubs top 3 players, and sign players like Pereira and Brenko. And it's concerning the fact that Reynolds is being talked about as the clubs best ever signing, when realistically it should be talked about as paying overs for an old broken 7, who will improve the team a bit because it's almost impossible to make it worse.

    Haha I was gonna make a Monday lineups joke when I read the Magic post but couldn't think of a good way to phrase it.

    This is why I'm a comedy genius.

    Who's the front runner for Oates?

    Also am I the only one that thinks Kurt Capewell isn't actually that good? He was solid off the Penrith bench last year, looked a little lost in the prelim when he replaced Kikau, scored a couple at centre in origin and has been pretty good this year, but the talk around him being a Brisbane priority, the hype aorund where he'll go etc seems a bit over done. He's definitely a good player, but I don't really see him as any big upgrade on about 10 other back rowers.

    jazman84 and Cribbage like this.

  11. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Hopefully Brisbane. He has a PO for next year on huge dollars, and Ikin has defended him on 360. Hopefully Ikin overrules Kevvie and makes him start picking him. If not I see him going to somewhere heartbreaking like the Roosters and dominating.

    It's looking like he will replace Glenn on the left edge for Brisbane, which is like replacing Steve Turner with Greg Inglis.

    Yeah was just saying to my mates it was bizarre seeing Ikin say that he was the top priority signing. I was expecting to read someone like Hodgson or Johnson. Capewell is a solid first grader who puts in big efforts, but not a top tier signing.

  13. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Ikin only said he was first priority because the deal is already done. That way he immediately kicks off his stint with a win, even though he wasn't involved.

    Any thoughts on where Vaughan might end up?

  15. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Dogs is the safest bet. He's gonna be a good get for anyone who wants him, with all the shit that's happened you will be getting him for unders.

  16. Tartmaster AJ James

    How does the suspension work with him getting sacked?
    Will he still have the 8 games to serve from the start of whatever contract he gets?

    I believe so yeah

    He's too good not to get another deal. Kinda sucks for the Dragons.

  19. AVA T Delonge

    Nah, given they didn't sack De Belin after this, I can't imagine they felt 'forced' to sack Vaughan. They 100% used this as an out to get out of his contract for next year.

  20. Magic AJ Parker

    Yeh I don't really think the Dragons care too much about their public image when it comes to players.

    800k was always overs for him and definitely seeing as he hasn't really progressed since leave Canberra.

    Good opportunity for them to get him and Norman off the books this year and rebuild. Not that I back them to do that well with Hook in charge.
