Recruitment and Retention for 2025

So if the story surrounding this whole sorry saga has any credibility in relation to Molo, failing to attend the end of season festivities and his excuse for doing so. Then I say that is not the kind of person that I want in my team especially if that player is considered a senior player. Just my views

Frankie got an advance to put in a new swimming pool. So the club wants it’s money back. Fins offered to pay it but the Dragons said Frankie has to pay. Flanno says he wants Frankie back and Cherry-Evans is welcome too !

It has to do with the finer points of salary cap management. I don't understand why but basically if the Dolphins pay us the 100k, it counts under our salary cap but if he pays the 100k, it's that much freed up from our salary cap. Dolphins trying to trick us. Glad the front office knows what's going on.
 
I love watching what is said on other forums and social media. First let's get Dodds from Souths, today let's get DCE for a year to teach our young halves. I sit there laughing into my beer. In my day we would call theses armchair critics
' Fair-weather Supporters '.

No incorrect, we advanced FMolo part of his salary which comes off our salary cap, we want him to pay it back, so we can put the money back into our salary cap and use it, If the Dolphins pay it, it is considered a transfer fee which doesnt do anything for our salary cap, means we are down $100k

I get the stance, especially given the lame nature of the 'offence' beiong claimed.. i.e. asking a senior player to attent a team event... and the stance has worked.. i.e. the next player manager giving his player the advice that he can just not turn up and claim mental health.. will very much think twice, he's done his reputation and his clients plenty of damage.

However it did cost us having Klemmer for the first 2 rounds.. and could have been 1-2 more wins.. so the cost ends up on us also.

If we somehow jag a win against storm it changes the narrative of our season completely and we go into the games against parra and titans expecting to win them and be 3-2
There is also the flip side of that to consider. Worst case scenario will mean Flanno can start preparing for next year. That's how bad last weeks loss was.

But is it a normal thing to for a club to advance someone money on their contract ? I think the club made a bad mistake doing that. If Frankie wanted a pool and he didn’t have the money up front then he goes into debt and pays it off by knuckling down and training hard and lifting the bar on the field. Plus I think Frankie thought he could get a release and not pay the money back.

Things are starting to look rosy for the future. The nameless one finally gone and another over paid under performer in Frank Molo too. We all saw what Halanhagu offers in his clip, now footage of Loko Tonga Jr at 18.

But still no word on Latu re-signing. I wonder if throwing that 100k from Frank Molo at him on top of whatever he's already been offered could sway him to re-sign.
