Its not just this Mack, its every year now & seems to be the games No 1 obsession. The efforts to make these uncoached sides stronger are stealing from the game the reason I play it. I can start making plans months out, then stuff like this gets thrown up, its happened for a few seasons now. This is just the final straw I guess. I don't give a flying fuck about uncoached teams, they shit me. Give me Cook back, someone else can look after Canberra & I'll just mostly sit out bidding & see you all when you work this stuff out. I'll just coach Auckland, I no longer want to be part of the coachless stuff. Maybe we should have stuck at 2 players each. I am sure Padds doesnt really care either way. Melbourne hasnt taken anyone. Nor has Canberra it seems.

I understand you Bill.....but this not Fairfield's or my fault.
Fairfield had Roby, Staggs and another, but I was told they will go to Padds, as he caretook Brisbane.
I was then offered Hodgson as part of the make up!
You can take Hodgson back,.....and we'll take Cameron Smith (Who was also offered to Fairfield)

Fairfield/Brisbane - Fanitesi Niu, Tommy Talau and Jack Welsby (RSC), J Ofahengue (150K), Kyle Feldt (100K) James Maloney (350k), Mitchell Aubusson (100k) - this group is mainly rsc with only maloney 9/5 Glasgow - klemmer and Staggs and flegler and harper and guerra?
How about this?

Why are you changing it again Mack? I gave back Hodgson to Canberra? My point is not getting him back to Canberra, though the gesture is appreciated, its all about having all these players in the CB pool for the "fun" it can bring to active coaches. Regular excessive "Gifting" these uncoached teams is my complaint, & your right, this is no fault of yours or Fairfields. It was always Auckland & Canberras plan to drop the high paid hookers as there was going to be a good bunch of hookers up for bidding. It was a plan worked out some time back when doing contracts. Honestly, I'm done with Canberra so dont really care what happens with Hodgson. My original idea to merge teams would have worked to an extent as there would have been no salary adjusting & players would have been forced to be cut from merged clubs to keep the cap under control. Maybe what I get from the game is different to everyone else, & maybe my ASRL career has run its course. I seem to be getting cranky at this stuff each & every off season. I'll stick with Auckland for now & give Canberra a miss.

A task very difficult to do!!! As for the amalgamations.....I thought the idea was to combine two teams as one, strangthen the uncoached teams and then move on to contract bidding! Don't be cranky mate.....take a deep breath and look after Canberra......we really only have 6 active coaches, who are full on. Let's keep the fun going!!!

The plan was always to go after him & roll the dice on the final price. Might backfire, but was always the plan. Also, what was decided on the coachless teams & bidding rules? WE agreed on one good shot before I went away but it seems now its go hard by all these coachless teams is it?

I think it's go hard, so that the uncoached sides can strengthen on an equal footing!

I'm fine with the decision if we change our original thoughts & go that way, but if this is the case, why the player handouts last week? I wont start another rant, I'm out of blood pressure tablets, but just when is enough enough for this vermin of the game?
