Could it also be the case that if our DOR didn't speak to the media for any length of time, there would be accusations flying about that the club aren't communicating with the fans?

Yep, the bloke can't win.

I agree there needs to be a balance, and like you say fans would complain if nothing came out of the club, presently I feel too much is coming out of the club and most of it pointless. Bomber is in the media far too much imo, he actually makes Morgan look like an amateur in the media whore department.

if he was coach n spending so much time talking to media then id agree. But he's DOR. Its part of his job description to save the coach having to field so many questions espesially regarding player rumours n speculation cos PG would never get any coaching done!! Only last night heard Brough on a 4 yr deal! on face of it a decent source but i still think its rubbish. At the point i cant believe any rumour any more. Is there a more ridiculous club than ours for rumours!

I'm getting sick of hearing from McRae.

It's obvious that the HDM gets a fair bit of it's 'gossip' from these sites and gets published, maybe McRea is politley saying 'shut the f eck up' with all these rumours shoite and let us get on with what we do. Afterall nothing will have been said without firstly being agreed by Gentle and Pearson.
By not saying anything about wanting a half back, would this mean that all the agents/coaches/chairmen of every RL club are NOT aware of our needs and would come as a surprise if we made an approach to any club for any half back??......yeah rite.
On the other hand had he not said anything about a half back all the moaners on here would be slitting their throats because McRea cannot see what we need.
Fecked if you do , fecked if you dont.

Spot on.

It seems to me some are all consumed by an Ad Infinitum rumours thread on this message board which is 99% garbage. Then when the club communicates via its DOR about generic subjects such as team strengthening it gets slated. Unbelieveable really.

imo think bomber just doing the job he was brought in for,

Re: Rumours Ad Infinitum : Thu Jun 21, 2012 11:02 am  

McRae is just doing his job!! if the press contact him and ask him various questions he responds. It's the press who then publish these answers or sound bites not McRae. If he gave them no comment or told them to bugger off, they'd publish that and their would be even more complaining on here. As some have said he can't win. IMO he appears to be doing a sound job, thus far he has brought in Ellis/Arundal and a deal for Watts appears imminent. Get off his back.
