    Walters Sacked

    It will take a strong willed and thick skinned person to take on the role. Walters is a five time premiership player and a favourite son yet got the punt so what chance an outsider? Coaching tends to be a recycling market but there isn't much out there to choose from apart from Madge, Demetriou...

    Have they had a non Qlder as a coach before? Offering the current NSW coach the job, that'd be funny.

    That's the $150,000 question!

    The Anthony Seibold Grievances MEGA THREAD

    Interesting article, food for thought. We all know where the kick off is going and both teams do too, but why? Because that's the way it's always been. It is something that l've wondered, why don't teams vary their kickoffs to keep the opposition guessing?

    Brookvale oval home games 2025

    He mentioned in a radio interview that he is toying with the idea of a members only game too, discussions to be had with the membership team. Will be great to see ressies again rather just the main game, hopefully plenty of Sunday arvos.

    All good, valid points. True, Foran may have bounced around a bit but apart from the Parra deal, he's seen out contracts despite his problems. Not so Lodge. I hope that he's settled down and l understand he needs to maximise his earnings but surely he should understand why he's only being...

    If you could add one player to our roster . . .

    Harry Grant ( plus a fully fit Turbo) will do.

    Pre-Game Chooks V Manly [Finals Week 2, 2024]

    I know it's the NRL so common sense is in short supply but....why can't they have the same ref in the Bunker for both games? Only two games on different nights.

    Seriously? You're comparing Lodge & Foran? Lodge averages 12 games a year over his time. Foran 20. I don't think Foran has made any mid season switches yet Lodge has had four. Foran might have gone for the $$ over the years and the GC deal for a longer term but to compare the two is...

    Lodge, you Monster

    That's kind of what l was getting at. His previous three contracts have ended abruptly so has he thrown his toys out of the cot and/or the clubs when it's come to contract time? Is it just all about the $$? Yes, I know they are professionals but...surely there comes a time when you look at your...

    Interesting terminology there from Lodge. Thought he'd stay at the Broncs but "business things" prevented that. He was inch away from a three year deal at the Chooks but just a "business transaction" ended that. So wonder what these business things were? Especially to end both tenures abruptly.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Makes you wonder if he should've stayed in Melbourne or if they were prepared to let him go after his COVID shenanigans despite at the time being the best winger in the game.

    Lodge, you Monster

    We're not "letting him go". His contract is up, he obviously wants a longer and/or better deal. I think he's on base $$ and has played 11 games since he got here and had two long term injuries. I'd say we've offered him something and he wants more. How much do you think he's worth? And for how...

    Maybe, but the key to selling things is to sell when they're still worth something. Who knows what he's worth in a years time? Both parties are trying to leverage here, the player wants security of a few more years and Parra can save $$ to spend elsewhere now.

    2024 FINALS: [All Games: Week 1]

    He pulled the handbrake on with the forward pass call, would've made it 24-16 and game on. Ridiculous call.

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Hindsight is a great thing. I always thought Garner had a bit of Beaver about him when U20's for us (not saying he's that good, just his build and style) His road seemed blocked here and we know Des' history of not debuting youngsters so off to the Tigers he went and obviously showed enough to...

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Yeah but reportedly he wants a three year deal. Why would he take 500k for three years when he could take 750k for 2?

    2026 recruitment & retention

    Will be interesting, he's not staying at Parra, burnt the Dragons, the Broncos pulled the pin. Is his sticking point length of contract ( 3 years) or price tag? Something has to give somewhere soon.

    Thing is though, it seems Lodge doesn't want to back himself on another short term deal and that's the sticking point. He's not exactly in the position of power in that regard. Return on investment between RCG and Lodge is like chalk and cheese. Lodge may have more upside going forward...but...
