    ANZAC Day v Roosters

    Massive effort. I wrote to an American military scholar a few years back and he let me know that himself and some of his academic buddies also celebrate Anzac Day in the US. They love their Aussies. kick their asses Dragons, no mercy, ffs get it done.

    Drinks is a very exciting player and would solve many problems. Hopefully the new regime can extract more resilience from the current group.

    Sack Flanno….

    So true. It gets annoying that many powerful people think the rest of us are gullible enough to keep believing them. I don’t think the sackings are going to completely resolve all of the underlying issues. We have to wait to see per the impact. But I can say that the club needs people who...

    Yes, It left me breathless at times, I’m better off for reading his insights.

    Sack Flanno….

    It’s a bit spooky that Deano is last coach standing in that 3 coaches set up. I can still hear Mary expressing his anger at having coaching chaperones at that presser. He had a good go Mary, I was relieved Webby tapped him on the shoulder in the car park. He’s a good bloke, no doubt about...

    Trumpy probably has a hand in this somewhere. Probably preparing to buy the club from Bruce. Sell the assets and then prevent them from leaving Port Kembla.

    Sack Flanno….

    Yep. It’s the most toxic of poisoned chalices any budding first grade coach could ever ask for. The only redeeming feature is that it’s SGI and not some interstate club no-one really cares about. For example, when the Storm win, milkshake sales always go up a bit. Deano desperately wants to...

    Yes, but I don’t think he brought them to the club for a holiday.

    Sack Flanno….

    Yes, Kyle hasn’t delivered his top footy and it was distracting. But he’s one of a number of players who talked themselves up but who have failed miserably. They can say they’re sorry, but that’s pointless now. All bets are off now as to who gets selected. All favours finished, they can all...

    Sack Flanno….

    Club and probably most management outfits usually find it very hard to admit mistakes. I take that stance for granted. Unless a side is genuinely competitive, there’s some serious questions to be asked about r&r and the decline of talent in the roster. I think it’s a genuine question as to...

    Recruitment & Retention 2027

    Yes. When I started the quiz, I said it was indirectly related to SGI. Whether it qualifies for this particular thread, it’s hard to know. If you let me know the ambit and scope of the thread, then I will have a better idea. But there’s been some kind & courageous pm’s.

    Recruitment & Retention 2027

    Well the first one, think about when Dufty was on the phone to members… Remember he was furious about it…! Connect that with pigster, he knew stuff others at the club didn’t.

    Recruitment & Retention 2027

    first player: I had to pick up the phone And ring the members true with Dufty sitting next to me and Piggy, yeah he knew. second player: The deals getting closer 27 all but done But swapsys or an early release To help me flee the Queensland sun Im not youthful or a glamour Not aged like...

    Recruitment & Retention 2027

    You dont have to have to read anything that doesn’t match your interests. During preseason with no news, im interested in peoples take on recruitment. Ryan was talking about a good player who wasn’t allowed to follow his own natural position and therefore was lost to the game. It’s a good...
