No doubt he’s better than what we’ve got.

But is he the best out there?

Richardson 16 years at Souths 1 Premiership

Ponisi 18 years at the Storm 3 Premierships (2 stripped) top 8 every year

Guess who is actually off contract at the end of 2024?

I didn’t realise he was off contract. That should almost be priority number one!

Was he there when there were multiple contracts in filing cabinets and boats parked in driveways?

No almost about it!
100% top priority, and he can help find a coach and players from 2025 onwards

He will have learned how to do things better.
Get him here now.

Maybe we'll extend him based on the positives we've taken away from the last 2 weeks

Madge also appointed him performance manager of the Blues

We could do worse than a Maguire/Ponisi combo in 2025

I reckon we could and probably will do much worse unfortunately

Was there ever even anything other than rumour that we were even after Richo?

Ponissi is a ****ing legend.

Talk to anyone from Melbourne, he has their utmost respect.

A massive part of their culture of excellence.

I'm only saying this as it then makes Blake Sollys, and to a lesser extent Brocks job untenable.

 

[Brownrabbit]

Ellison sits in Richo’s old position

Most clubs run a ceo and General Manager of football which Richo became with us

The combination of Solly and Ponisi would be a far better management team than Richo sole CEO in charge of both commercial and football operations

Ponissi is going nowhere. I have a mate who is a mate of Frank’s. He is very happy in Melbourne.
