[Bomb Voyage]

He gets on base.

You want me to speak? When I point at you, yes.

He’s got an ugly girlfriend. Ugly girlfriend means no confidence.

Passes the eye candy test. He's got the looks, he's ready to play the part. He just needs some playing time.

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

We are ageist against the young.

Exhibit A: Caleb Navale. Just baffles me that he is not even on the reserves bench for tonight's game.

Who’s Fabio? He’s a shortstop in Seattle.

 

[ManlyTragic]

I reckon if we had an over 30s comp we would give it a shake!

Just sayin’

 

[Stevo]

We don't want him. No fan wants him. Unfortunately, plodders are all the geniuses in our recruitment department are able to get. If we do sign him it is a signal that we have no cap space and have basically already given up on season 2026 before a ball is kicked.

Or it fills a 12 month hole until the likes of Haas etc are available.

 

[Hertera]

So much talk about something that isn't and never was happening with regards to klemmer

Don't know if reported already,but the big prop we were rumoured to have signed from the Roosters(Lavakeiaho),has been signed by the Bunnies according to the Mole.
