Recruitment & Retention 2027

Lot of people turning on him after 2 games where he wasn't that bad.
No he wasnt but he was our #7 and we conceded 100 pts in those two games. Those are the facts, not saying Kade was the main reason, but you must admit he appears to be out of his depth at this career stage. I too dont wanna lose him but we cant keep going into games yr after yr with the same dud halves and expect to suddenly become a top side. Aint gonna happen. Metcalfs record shows he is a good half and he wants to play #7 and run the side. So if the only way we can land him is to offer him four yrs, so be it.

If Suli is going we need a quality replacement if we are going to improve. We are weak in outside backs putting it mildly so who is out there that we could recruit? It is probably someone under contract now who would be released as there doesn’t seem to be any quality available who is a free agent for next year.

Just seen riccio say on SEN 3 hours ago it’s between bulldogs and dragons for Metcalf and he’s got the dogs ‘in front’

That shows how much he knows + now that his good mate Flanno is gone he’s nowhere near as well connected

People would be surprised at how much shit Flanno would chat to the media privately

Sorry to see him go as he has always put in 100% for us, even tho he has lacked the skill factor.
So now we need a centre with size, agility and skill. Not much to ask. Oh for a clone of Best or Crighton. Pity Cornelius Papuali is only 17/18 as he looks in their mold. I say fast track him.

We need someone ready to go now. They must have someone lined up.

If your right about Flanagan then Im glad he is gone. You can't be in bed with the media and be concentrating on the rigours of being a 1sts coach

We are definitely building the team correctly this time and you would think a good coach could see this and want to join. Also other good players will follow and your good ones stay.
Surely the team is more pumped up now and wanting to belong, lets hope🤞

Sir, who is the halfback who is going to bring us winning results now? Metcalf? Had half a good season before injury and now he has been eclipsed by a GC reject. But not against signing him. Only against it if it means losing Reed. Fair dinkum! Only 3 months ago he could walk on water now after 2 games inside the worst 1~5 in all of history and possibly prehistoric, he's gotta go. 2 games in which he wasn't even that bad.

Then again, what is Ashton Ward's contract status?
I cant see why you think that Metcalf and Reed when he is ready cant be the halves pairing, I know they both said they want to be a 7 but you can still control a side from 6.
