Club News 2022

Normally don't like basing things on rumours, but if true I would be dissapointed most with Big O, the club stood by his best mate and continue to do so.
Also if true no freight, if they want out leave, if expected to pay freight then I don't mind cutting our nose off and forcing them to play blacktown until they decide to go.

If this is true, I’m sure the vultures in the media will be all over it. Keep Koula and Guac and let the rest go. Tui has been rubbish since cementing is reg wing spot. Sipley - see ya later. Saab looked pretty happy to me in the fan day pics.

I really think the sands have shifted in the last few weeks since Snake suggested that there would not be many signings due to upgrades. It’s only my thoughts however I feel that there may be a clean out about to happen. Let’s hope so. I agree Tui & Sipley have been dreadful in recent times and I would be comfortable seeing the back of them. Of the 7 both Koula and Guac appear to be having a red hot go. Aliao has been passable without setting the world on fire.

Another great innovation from our club

We are the only club that managed to piss our polynesian players off

Congratulations to all involved at the Sea eagles

Other clubs are looking forward to the finals and a fertile 2023 season

And we are still talking about the mess we created in 2022

Congratulations to everyone involved at the club

Just an aside with Saab - I saw him out there last night with our other injured players during the warm up. No crutches, no brace and just a slight hint of a limp. Maybe his knee injury isn't too bad??

 

[The Wheel]

Hey guys and gals I hear Foz attended the presser for his last game as a club legend at Brookie and media wanted to talk to him. It was a nice way for fans to hear from him too that couldn’t be there I reckon (like me).

No other issue.

You should write it for them bro or write one to penn.

Haha, I would mate, but my hopes versus actual facts are too far apart. But being honest, a few things:

Club Culture : chains of command , coaching, playing group. Just want everyone plugged in, and all pulling in the same direction.

Recruitment / Salary Cap : need that sorted , even if it means making some unpopular decisions around staff / players

Junior teams : bring back Blacktown into the family, and maybe invest in a women's team.

If we struggle next year, but those three above are right, most would be happy I'd hope. We just want to take small steps forward.

 

[HK_Eagle]

There is a strong rumour that we are going to trade Morgan Boyle for Cameron Munster.

I hope not, he's our up-coming star 5/8... and winger... and fullback

Saab just also signed a 3 year extension, remember.

True. Tbh keep him, Koula and Guac is all I care about. Sone one else posted it, but I thought Guac and Koula were putting in last night. Think both have extended contracts as well. Not that contracts mean much at all these days in this sport.

Why would he want out. No other club would want him. Unless he's in free space to the line he's not that good a player.

Saab is regularly on social media showing love to the fans, club, etc.

 

[mickqld]

Mad Monday and end of season awards night should be interesting. If there's player divisions then that's where it'll appear. Some liquid courage will bring that out.

Not enough however to take the field in Round 20.

 

[Ranga]

If true, asking for a release 3 games from season’s end shows complete immaturity. They should just finish the season, have their break and if they still want out come day 1 of pre-season, fine. Act like a professional.

I don’t actually agree with that , if they are pissed they just wouldn’t turn up to Mad Monday and not all players go to the awards night anyway with often only the ones getting the awards there.

It’s more likely to play out on social media post season , that’s how the Gen X’s roll!!

These are self indulged Gen X’s you are talking about , acting professional wouldn’t be a part of their DNA.

They're mostly Gen Z's and Millenials now @Mark from Brisbane. The entitled generations.
