Of course they will, realistically the super league clubs are looking at the level lower than that one I suspectold hooker wrote:Looking for young Aussie talent is a good policy but something tells me that any promising players would allready have been snapped up within the NRL.

. And that’s what all this is about. We won nothing! Sometimes it happens ,get used to it,Man U and city fans have had to in spite of all the money they spend. Mind you we are still WC Champions .Some May talk it down but believe me Cronulla didn’t come to lose.

You are happy nurturing players for the NRL?
Obviously!
It's not about moaning, it's about the reality of the situation. The fact two of the top men have stated it in a round about way should be a bit of a pointer?
You carry on as you think but don't expect others not to think deeper!
What would you like the club to do to compete with the NRL with a third or less of the NRL cap?
Team full of wiganers? Wait we hate that it doesn’t work!
I know resign players who come back? No wait we don’t like that either!
How about sign younger Aussies? Oh hang on why do we need to do that when we have our own academy tut that’s it we don’t want a team of locals!
Let’s sign average players or project players? Nope can’t do that as we moan at that too!
Our salary cap is not going to match the NRL’s anytime soon so why don’t we make the best of the current situation and be realistic? Oh wait we are trying that and surprise surprise - moan!
Damned if they do, damned if they don’t.
If you however have it all figured out WW please share, I’d love to hear how you would make us more successful as a club and a business?

How did he play in his last game at centre Mr Carney? His injury record isnt very good, but his disciplinary record both on and away from the field is worse and the real problem. Still Carney a injury prone ill disciplined winger at centre with Ah Van a injury prone slow winger would have been great ... especially for those of us with a sense of humour. We could then have signed a talented injury prone standoff with off field problems which is tge main reason he's been in SL in Todd Carney and I thought I was mad????????better than Sargey

So was Gelling. Considerably.medlocke wrote:And still better than Sargey
I agree, but after six years he should have been a top performer and not an inconsistent project player, it was his time to go, shame about his replacementmoto748 wrote:So was Gelling. Considerably.medlocke wrote:And still better than Sargey
Do we really have to have these quotes-within-quotes-within-quotes? It makes threads so long and hard to read.
