I mean, if your tried and tested ‘first choice’ turns you down, you’ve got to have a back up plan. The club often gets criticised for not having a plan in place. For all we know Burgess may of been on the radar all along…
Well yeah, remember that time we wanted Matt Orford to replace Nat Wood. He decided to stay in Manly.
We had a back up plan, Michael Monaghan, and he decided to stay in Manly at that time as well.
So we were cashed up but needed to grab somebody so ended up throwing the cash at Michael Sullivan.
I still think that bringing in Sullivan to replace Nat Wood was the moment everything started to slide downhill for Cullen.
