Well some time later, that mentioned player is one of our highest earners.


I remember he (DC) posted that on here. It's in black and white!

Wonder what changed?

Re: CC and recruitment : Mon Mar 27, 2023 8:24 am  
The problem is we pay Amazon prices but buy from Wish.com

We looked online and then paid high street prices, then those in charge blamed the supporters for not attending in greater number. Judging the money wasted on some 'players' maybe not having full cap to spend is a blessing in disguise.

With the money those players are apparently on, I think we tried price matching with Waitrose.

Our 7 overseas signings are the worst ever. Only Whitbread gives us what we want. Tanginoa lost interest as soon as he got a long term deal. Lino isn't the playmaker we thought we were getting. Proctor and Langi are past it. Tofua is bang average and Atoni is stealing a wage


This about sums it up.

I still ask myself why do British coaches feel the need to buy overseas players based on their You Tube highlights, pay big bucks, and just because they were NRL players must be better than what we have over here. There is a reason why they aren't NRL players anymore.

Don’t 100% agree with this mate. For every Atoni you get a Paul Aiton. Atoni was a regular draw at the Bulldogs before going to the Roosters. Although it obviously means diddly squat as he’s been atrocious in my opinion.

You've already done it mate, remember? On Facebook about 2 weeks ago.

Think you've made your point now.
