I agree, but my suspicion is that directive/direction comes from higher than Dodoro.

Most probably. We are not really a club that parts with players easily.

You claim that Dodoro is directed by someone in a higher position. Who?
Those in bold would be the only players worth re-signing.

Well, I say he might be, I thought I was quite clear that I don’t know definitively.
As to who, well the board for starters. Maybe the coach. There may be a committee of the CEO, coach, other key people who set the direction the list management will take. Assuming we have a multi-year plan to be a premiership threat, one that sets out the plan for list management, I’d be staggered if that isn’t a policy decided on by the Board or high level executives.
But here is a question - do you think it was Dodoro’s decision on how to treat the saga related players? I would expect that a decision like that, that impacts our reputation, our culture, but also our list management strategy, was probably decided at board level. Would Dodoro have had input? I would assume so. But I also assume others would have.
To be clear, I’m talking about our overall list management approach, our long term plans, our risk strategy. Not individual picks.
I agree although wondering if Smack is worth keeping as insurance.

If this is indeed the case, our player development must be ■■■■■.

It is
It is, players like Hurls, Hooker, Watson, Parish, Heppell, McKenna, Walla, JoeDan, Raz they are all crap and we will never go anywhere with them because we haven’t developed them properly.

Hopefully it’s McGrath on a 10 year deal, with doctors saying they expect another freak 4 inch growth spurt over the next 2yrs
