Jack Bird to remain at Red Hill despite testing his value on the open market

[lynx000]

I'm thinking we'll play a lot like the bunnies in their premiership year next year.

Lots of explosive forward action, speed in the ruck and offloads from TPJ & Haas. Clever running halves
(my money is on 7 Croft 6 Milford)
And powerful fullback in Bird.

On paper it all makes sense... Just need an extremely intense off season to learn the new model with all souls on board to play to the new game plan and style. Bennett ball will be a year further from their minds. They'll be fitter. Because I noticed a LOT this year it was mostly effort and energy we lacked this year. Lots of one out individual brilliance at times.. if we can get that individual performance at a team level, create some synergy.... The team will hum.

Just need that 7 signing to fix our in game kicking problem.

Who do you think the 7 signing should be?

Depends on how he recovers from the knee injury. If he still has his explosiveness and speed I’m all for it.

Not many do unfortunately. Tedesco is a good example of a full recovery, atleast as far as we can see. Oh and RTS maybe there is more than what I thought.

Croft. 100% believe he'd be great for us.

He'd be a more consistent Mitch Moses cross Luke Brooks.

He wants to be the main man who steers the team, clearly Milford has been getting manufactured into that and it just isn't working out... He'll have the mental fortitude coming from the Melb system. He has a decent running game and a nack for field goals.

He has his hands tied where he is. He is the perfect fit and foil to free up Milf.

That's a far more balanced spine with power and muscle at the back, speed and skill and deception with a true running 6, and the smarts and confidence of a guy with everything to prove from a highly professional organisation who has played under Cronk and Smith.

That, plus an aggressive little **** number 9 who likes to throw himself into everything.....

Looking the goods IMO

Mate, I love your outlook, and I hope we do get him. The deafening silence since their meeting is concerning though.

Seems like everything everywhere has gone quiet... are they all on holidays??

Does Peter Badel still have a job or is he on a bender in Bali doing some "investigative journalism"??

Is Segeyaro back yet?

Not really. It's only been a couple of weeks.

Think of how much changed from the gf last year to RD1.

Yes and he’s looking shredded

Good that his values has dropped... has something to prove now so he can get a decent contract in Sydney for 2021. We should see the best of him next year
