Look, you could be 100% correct and I have no idea… could be scary times though because our recruitment team sees no value in Taupau any longer either, so they must have no idea too right 😂😂
Same goes for @madmax’s fav Walker. Club happy to see him go too.

Hilarious. Our clubs had its best recruitment decisions in years.

Let me know who your other fav players are?… I’ll know who is on the way out 😂
We all have favourites mate. Yes Walker is one of mine. It’s the treatment he receives on here that made me stick up for him. I just wish he reached his potential here & not elsewhere.
 
They sometimes fax them to @Ryan and the canadian theatre critic.
@jbb/james and @globaleagle , he's not wrong mate. I got accidentally faxed a copy of Chocs contract (showed dan the cover to prove it).

Made me laugh at the speculation in the media about what players were on.

Actually, it was an amendment to existing contract where Watmough was taking a paycut to facilitate other players.

That was his character, and what the old boys expected to keep the core together. That culture is gone out the window now.

And people rip Choc. What a tragedy man !

I spoke to the club at the time and promised I wouldn't share details, and I haven't. Ever.
 
I could take or leave Walker and Taupau. Funnily enough Taupau was one of my favourite players before he joined Manly. He’s had his moments but hasn’t really achieved what I thought he would.

Interesting that these 2 are the last of the big signings from the Barrett era. I think it means Des is finally getting HIS team, which is exciting.

Des has re signed both of them .. they are both his.

This is is 4th year and with the exception of DCE the team is 100% signed by Des ..

And it is a pretty good side ..

Just thinking about this, really both have been a disappointment. Like yes the have had the odd great game but really neither have really been consistent and more importantly it has been rare that more than 3 players have been outstanding in any of the same game?
