2025 recruitment & retention

[Adz]

More so how we approach him,already dealt with a dodgy landscaper last year,so that boat has sailed as far as karma goes.
Think they were as happy to see the last of me by the end of it.

 

[BOZO]

There are some dodgy landscapers out there.

There are not only Dodgy Landscapers out there feathered friend
There are also Dodgy club Directors
Dodgy Club Salary cap Managers
Dodgy Club CEOs
Dodgy Club Coaches
Who hold their Clubs Premiership Winning Success at Ransom

 

[ManlyTragic]

To me it is more like a landscaper.
The landscaper shows the potential customer some pictures,saying here is my work and how good I am,pay me now before the job is done.
The customer says,no thanks,here is a deposit for supplies,I will pay you later when you show me you are committed and following through on the job and prove it to me.

Gees ! Who had a bad experience with a landscaper!!

Just sayin’

I'm sure you're right, especially if you gave them that Shelford glare.
Speaking of landscapers - based on personal experience a long time ago... I reckon Schu should work for 3 months as a landscapers labourer. He'd be in great shape by then (or dead) 😱

Terrell May?? We need a good prop

 

[47MVEagle]

He already asked for 500k from Manly b4 he signed with Catalans this year.
Even if he is a short term success, he is medium term zero, as he will want too much $$.
Much like Lodge.

How about we invest in the future, not short term.

If he signs a T&T contract with us, it means no one else wants him.

Which means he has no leverage if we decide to upgrade him to a top 30 spot, so he won’t be costing us $500k if we do.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I’m back from WA after 6 months , bit of a catastrophic end with Mrs MFB falling down the edge of a road and absolutely smashing her ankle ( 2 plates , 10 pins , 13 screws ). Emergency operation in Perth and then 3 weeks getting her home after the major surgery.

So I’ve hardly looked at Silvertails since the end of the season.

I gather , as there’s no announcements , that we haven’t signed anyone.

I note Cuzzo is at the Melbourne Cup , back to work next week.

So you’ll is what that means don’t you !!!

Sorry to hear that Mark…I wish a speedy recovery!

No action at Manly has been missed. I noticed today a few clubs returned to preseason training. It’s crazy how fast it comes around.

Hope Mrs MfB is Ok!

Is all that metal going to cause a problem when she goes through airport security?

Just sayin’

Yes I note on the news up here that the Donkeys went back today and Mam was a no show. I expect he’ll be cut very soon

Holy poop on a stick!

I hope Mrs MFB is recovering and the pain isn't too bad. Ouch!
No more fishing trips for you.
Oof, my ankle tingles just reading that.

Now we get to see how good you are at housework 🙂

All the best Mrs MFB

The problem we have is Seibold needs results now which creates short sightedness in our recruitment strategy.

Hi Mark, what a bummer of a way to finish your epic holiday. On Mam, read that he may get suspended for the 25 season. Also heard it could now be only half of the 2025 season. Thats why there're chasing Hunt i guess. What happens to their cap, surely they still have to pay Mam and Hunt wont be cheap either. Poor old JAC, he joined the wrong club. Mam should be cut, but hey, it's the Broncos after all and things like this are worked out differently up here.

Bugger for the Mrs mate. Would have been a bloody painful .hope it doesnt dampen her adventurous side. Summer at home id presume as it sounds like a long hot brisbane summer recovery with Mrs hoppy and Mr Hop to it now
