I'm saying it's likely bullshit that they owe anyone money.
It seems this PR rugby chap is the one with the Magpie vendetta.
He should go and use the shit he speaks for something positive and go fertilize the playing fields with it.
I guess it's a change from every second post whinging about Brothers though....

I think it is a reasonable question to be asking about the financial position of the Club, after a $160,000 loss in the 2023 season. The current position won't be known until the AGM, sometime in November. I would assume that if there is money owed, it will be disclosed in the Financial Report. I hope!

If it was a question being asked I'd just scroll on, but it's a continual stream of rumours, from a particular poster, being stated as a fact. I felt it needed to be called out.
I've got no idea on Souths financials other than it's always been a club that has a battled hard and punched above it's weight.
Hopefully those people who collect a paycheck are payed.

My friend - get use to this on this site - rumours are often stated here that purport to being facts………”I have heard…….”, ‘Someone close to the club has told me….”, “Speaking to someone at the club………..”, “One of the players told me………” etc etc etc……

Yeah I know. This one just got under my skin, probably because there have been a series of them.
Unfortunately it's hard to come by any news of our beloved Hospital Cup anywhere else.

Well said Spamnoodle - I think with the lack of QPR exposure generally most of us here turn to G&GR to satisfy our itch but it is sad that there is no journalistic credibility in what is contributed to this site. Club allegiance also gets in the way sometimes.
Over time you will be able to appreciate what is fact and rumour.
One fact that runs deep - if you don’t support Brothers then it is anyone but the Filth.
But for my Brothers colleagues - winners are grinners and losers can please themselves. Enjoy the premiership.

I heard the Brothers GM on a podcast a little while ago talking about them organising a preseason comp with a couple of clubs (no names were mentioned) from Qld, NSW and ACT each. I think the idea was they would all travel to either Sydney or Brisbane on alternate years and play eachother. Does anyone have any info or know if this is likely to go ahead and what clubs might be involved?

I’m guessing it’s what happened this year at club championship… that was a festival of rugby

I hear they're looking at a multi week (2/3) preseason comp similar to NRL as an exhibition between comps - trying to build on the concept at crosby were they had the sunshine coast play against roma as well as canberra vs wests

First player movement for the off-season ... Fletcher Spicer off to Sunny Coast Falcons in the Q Cup.
It was that idea, but they were organising it themselves as they saw value in playing clubs from other comps and had built up relationships with them over the last few years with Aus Club Champioship, but it wasn't that, this was going to be a separate pre season set of games. maybe 5 or 6 clubs across the 3 main comps. It was on the Qld Rugby Pod, link below with Lochie Lawrence from Brothers. Haven't listened to it in a while but it was a good chat and not a bad local rugby pod too.
Inter-state club rugby is coming!... and there will be quiche! (with Lochie Lawrence)

Do you know if the Storm are sniffing around as well? Or just purely signed via the Falcons?

I've heard bareback biltong has been banned at the Kennel in 2025, can you confirm?

Not the original poster, but I had also heard there was interest from NRL sides. That said it was very much off the rumour mill (and over many beers), so take it with a bucket of salt.

Wests have just made a significant announcement. The sacked Souths Colts 1 coaches, Cian O'Connor and Luke Samoa have been appointed to Wests Premier Grade coaching group. Let's watch closely to see if supportive players follow them. I think Souths may regret the decision. Have to wait and see.
