OFFICIAL Jack Bird released to the Dragons

[Sproj]

The women’s team seems to go alright

What a wonderful experience that week and a half of the year is. What a shame we have to spend 6 months + watching the men’s rubbish.

 

[Petch67]

Is there ANYTHING to be optimistic about this fucking shitshow of a club??

No....but....we only have a few left on the books with options......
These options need to be pissed off....
Knights re signed ponga this year til 2024 but he has an option so can negotiate november 2021.....already talking about the all blacks blah blah.....these pricks pull this shit to talk their price up.....ponga isnt worth half of what hes on

Ponga would not make the all blacks lol he’s fucking kidding himself.

his ego is writing checks his body can’t cash. He’s good but my god he hasn’t proven anything more then he does a mean goosy and a cut out pass.

I get the all blacks aura and I do think ponga is over rated but ffs NRL players would waltz into most top innternational union teams. They smashed the wallabies but the wallabies would honestly be lucky to beat a QLD cup team.

League players for mine are just individually better. The NRLs week to week strong competition and focus on defence over rules and specialty positions just lends itself to improved player ability. Not saying the all blacks aren't amazing and all that, just that this myth that nrl wouldn't shape up to their level is laughable. Willams wouldn't be anywhere near the kangaroos squad up when he was 34 years old, he hardly even made an impact in English super league lol. The NRL is the toughest rugby comp in the world, regardless of rugby leagues minimal world acknowledgement...

No arguments here, he’d walk into any other side and I do feel bad for Australian international rugby, if the nrl wasn’t as popular and a lot of our league players played rugby I dare say we would beat NZ on the regular.

True...reminds me of someone stinking it up on our books

Who? I mean literally, who? There’s quite a selection stinking it up.

 

[jarro65]

So he reckons we gave up on him [emoji2955]

 

[Sproj]

So he reckons we gave up on him [emoji2955]

Yep thanks for nothing mate, hope the door hit him on the way out but then he probably would have injured something, so they probably gave him a pat on the way out and an assurance he is welcome back if it doesn’t work out at St George.

Even he doesn’t take accountability.

It also is pretty clear we are paying a fair bit of his price next year.

The whole situation was a shamble. We never needed him and he was an abject bust of a recruit, total waste of millions of dollars.

His signing is really symbolic of the train wreck the club is though these days.

 

[007]

Throw his shit from the locker onto the driveway. How big is that guys ego, let alone what world is he in?

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Disrespecting this club is in vogue at the moment because of how much of a rollover pony it has become so it doesn't surprise me that even the most useless players are feeling bold enough to give us a kick on the way out.

 

[Blindside Bronco]

Bye bye Birdy bye bye! ........ I mean birds of a feather **** off together!

 

[Blindside Bronco]

Bird asked to coach each year . I flyed? Coach says no you falled!!!

 

[WASSHHH]

So he reckons we gave up on him [emoji2955]

As one of his biggest advocates through his entire shit-show Broncos career I’d just like to say: **** off flea.

What more could the club have done, seriously? Experimental bionic man surgery to put his broken body back together?

The attitude of and respect shown by a large portion of the playing group is lower than a snakes asshole. With Mr Gender Reveal mentoring some of the kids over the last few years though, is it any wonder.

So he reckons we gave up on him [emoji2955]

What a shit ****, **** off dickhead and I hope you stink it up at the Dragons. Genuine piece of shit.

 

[Big Pete]

In context the quotes don't come across as poorly. Essentially he said that he was 100% committed to the Broncos and while Kevie would tell him one thing, the club would do another and they were happy for him to leave.

 

[Kimlo]

Lol, **** off and don't come back ****.

We are chipping in about $400k i believe. Utter stupidity.
