It does just reek of the club learning nothing from what just happened with Fifita.

Figure out which guys you want to keep and lock them down before their contract runs down.

what’s the point of telling us “we want to keep this young squad together” , but then leave them hanging around close to off contract for other clubs to swoop.

recruitment and retention team need to get their fucking shit together

If we lose Staggs that’d be another massive disappointment.
He grew up supporting and loving the club. Lives with Turps and Bully.
He has massive potential, has his defensive issues but he is a bloke we need to keep.
Wouldn’t be surprised if the rumours are true, it’d just be another kick to this club and more justification that big things need to change.
Ikin has a massive wrap on him, so another reason to get him to the club before these blokes keep walking out the door.
Wouldnt be surprised if the Bulldogs table him a big offer. 🥺

My guess is the board has planned to sack him (Seibold) and don't want to make any recruitment decisions until a new coach and CEO are appointed. Which they should hurry up and do.

It’s clubs stirring shit, smelling a few players could be vulnerable to poach.
 
All these players seemingly wanting out ... there must be some truth to it, even if its just shitty journalists. Wasn't it the same with Canberra and Bateman?
There's no way Seibold is going to be coach next year, whoever comes in is going to have a massive, massive job on their hands.

yet only one has left ... and it took making him the highest paid player in the game to get him 🤔

Problem is, we heard that from Fifita as well. Big Dave still puts the effort in judging by his effort the other night.
Sure, sure but as good as 'Staggsy' is no one is offering him $1.25 mil in a hurry.

That's just a ridiculous approach though... Is Staggs part of our future... would any coach that comes in not want Staggs?

It's the same scenario with Dearden then... we won't start negotiations until after a new coach is appointed and he'll be a free agent by then.

Is Nolan on gardening leave, because what is his job if he's not looking to sort out the roster for 21 and 22.

By my reckoning we've got the below off contract at the end of next year... are we going to hang around and wait until they're all free agents before we make a move on re-signing?
- Kotoni Staggs
- Thomas Flegler
- Xavier Coates
- Thomas Dearden
- Ethan Bullemore
- Fanitesi Niu
- Jordan Riki
- Jesse Arthars

Maybe, but I bet more than a few of these guys are looking at the deal Fifita got and thinking they deserve more $

I think you'd be dead right and a few more will be looking at what Milf offers up for his fat swag of mullah and be thinking why bother?
 
Take this with a pinch of salt, but Slothfield reporting Staggs is after a new agent and wants out of Brisbane. I love Kotoni as a player, he has been one of my favourites since i first saw him playing at Redcliffe, but i dont know why i'm just not bothered if he leaves if he starts chasing a move and we end up with all the bullshit that went on with Fifita. We should make him a good offer, and if he turns it down move on. We have stuffed up enough contracts in recent years. Time to play hardball i think. We have become pushovers when negotiating contracts.
What have we got to bargain with?

15th and next year wont be any better.
 
Enari Tuala is off contract, from QLD and looks the goods. We need a left centre and wouldn’t be expensive.

Unfortunately I believe he has re-signed with Newcastle
