An NRL AFL super club merge we take their name, they take our colours 🤯
But you Biff aren't you? You were the legend that coined "Powder Puff Crew" a few years ago.
Who are these mice that you speak of?
With advancements in AI it will be soon be very possible to create fake ( virtually impossible to detect pressers etc) The more neurotic easier to trigger amongst us are going to explode.
@JenEagle there has been something wrong with the people running our club for many years and the **** they came up with just gets funnier every year.
I have said it before and I'll say it again, Tartak is a scourge on any club where he has players who are on his books, and he always will be. However, if you were a Pacifica player or the family of same, he would be right up there with who you would go to straight to employ as a manager. I don't know his skills in managing player money, however, he certainly 'screws' clubs.
Tartak primarily manages Pacifica players, and given their culture, the entire family is typically dependent on the player's income, and this is no offence to Pacifica players or those from Pacifica regions, it is their culture, and I respect that.
Pacifica players will typically always go where the dollars are bigger, to support their family, as given their culture, it as their responsibility, well most, to their family. I'm not saying non-Pacifica players do not necessarily embrace the same responsibility, however, it is far more so in the Pacifica culture and their responsibility to their entire family.
I worked in a Pacifica nation for 3 years, and most of my employees wages went straight back the the family and the village.
However, every club has to recognise and clearly understand the Pacifica culture, and that they are likely to 'jump ship' if a better offer appears. It's not they are not loyal to a club, as they are extremely loyal, however their loyalty is much more to their family than it is to a club. In saying that, many employees in business today also embrace a similar culture, so it's not just Pacifica players. It's just the nature of the beast these days!
Gone are the old days, when loyalty was gold and was demonstrative of long term employment and a safe investment in an employee, whereas, having interviewed (not being interviewed) 'head hunters', it's now, 'How come you have only had a few jobs? You are lacking experience.'
If the Fainu's leave, say goodbye to Olakau'atu as well, most likely, and unfortunately.
Maybe Mestrov has had enough of Tartak, as I found it was really strange we signed Arthur, when we already had Humphries and Fainu coming through. Humphries seems to be being groomed as a hooker these days, similar to Croker, however, Tartak, like he complained about Foran as 5/8, may have perceived 'a road block' for Latu, with Arthur's signing, just as he did with Foran for Schuster.
It's all about money these days, and managers and players, through their managers, recognise (well most) the players potentially have a very limited time to earn a significant income in the NRL, and some have managers who let them 'piss it it up against the wall', as opposed to some managers, like JT's manager (wonderful story about that), who set him up for life. I am sure there are many other stories of great managers who have set their players up for long term wealth.
Latu wasn't on small coin at Manly, for a 16 year-old, $300k a year I believe, however, the Tigers or another club may well offer him $450k, maybe more, and given Hunt may leave the Dragons in the next week, and the Fainu's have plenty of friends at the Dragons, if he was your son, what would you suggest?

There is no A.I. Just better computers
If clubs keep offloading Tarak and Moses players eventually players won't sign with them.
KE stop bringing logic and fact into the argument ,the chooks in the pen will not have it !!!
You know that doesnt go down well around here
“Fake News”
Penn gearing up to unload the club and license maybe ??? Perth Sea Eagles ??
How is any player going at the Dragons ?? Only club to out rank us in basketcase.
Agreed @Highflier However, there are all sorts of chooks in the Silvertails pen. There are those that feed the chooks. There are those that run around like headless chooks. There are those that like stirring up the chooks for their own amusement........ Just to name a few.
The NRL categorically denied that there would be any relocation of existing Sydney teams to Perth @mickqld .
Relocation unlikely to ever happen in NRL expansion as cashed-up Sydney clubs will never give up their turf
NRL expansion is set to happen with three teams on the horizon in the next decade but relocating Sydney teams is a long shot.

The NRL has been caught lying before.
In the NRL's post-truth world there are lies, damned lies, and statistics
Post truth may well be the Oxford Dictionary's word of the year but rugby league has operated in this universe for decades. The code has been well ahead of the Trumpites and Brexiters in disdaining facts and appealing to emotion when presenting arguments.
Yeah wouldn't put any faith or trust in what the nrl say. They'll do it without hesitation if there is $$$ in it. Tradition and loyalty are non existent in the nrl.The NRL categorically denied that there would be any relocation of existing Sydney teams to Perth @mickqld .
The fact that this denial was so explicit is extremely worrying IMO.Relocation unlikely to ever happen in NRL expansion as cashed-up Sydney clubs will never give up their turf

I wouldn't bet against it. Then allow Brookie to be used for RaRa like Concord Oval.
