    Eddie's Gone

    Rothfield

    Sticking the boot into us again in the telegraph. According to this poor excuse for a journo ,Snowy went from being the best prop in the game to overrated when he announced he was leaving the sharks. I know we should ignore it but he and his paper are trying to incite a war between us and St...

    Cooper Cronk

    It is common knowledge he is testing his value on the market. 850 k a season he wants. With new tv deal pending, cap increases and our incredible wealth together with Wayne's stated admiration for him i was wondering if a play for him is plausible. What do u guys think? Do we need him and is...

    Jericho return next week will save WWE

    If Jericho is not the January second return then McMahon needs to retire. A feud with Punk is a must as the mic work will be gold alone. Jericho needs to win the rumble for one. HHH versus Taker can only go up a gear if Shawn screws Taker over for the streak. Montreal mark 2. Or else Brett...

    Superleague mark 2?

    Well it appears the IC is under threat by all 16 Clubs at present and the club's want more money for 2012. Please discuss. Are we looking at another breakaway comp attempt with the new TV rights up for sale...

    Secret Wayne Bennett trip on eve of St George Broncos semi final

    One of the mods or tech wizards can put up the actual article but here is the link. This does not look good at face value but I believe it is Wayne just being Wayne. I would love to know why it was so urgent that he left in the middle of a huge week to conduct these meetings. Mark T really went...

    Darius Boyd could be our greatest ever signing

    Sublime performance by Darbs yesterday. Second only to Slater as a fullback but his influence is terribly understated. He is a genius IMO and it is no coincidence he fires and saints win. He doesn't they lose. It is going to be a long summer waiting for him to carve it up for us.

    Memebrs meeting moved to Panthers Club King St

    Still 7pm kick off. I assume most got the SMS but I am just letting you now if you haven't and intend to go. Club asks that you register your intention to attend by Midday today.

    RLW 2011 season preview provides much cause for optimism

    Cameron Bell's preview for our club point blank says that Likiliki, O'Donnell and Henry are the three top players to play in the U20 competition at present. He uses the words 'without a doubt' the best. If he is correct, Mr Onslow please take a bow. That may put a bit of a hole in Coastbloke's...

    Quade Cooper

    Newcastle nearly signed him two years ago and we are apparently going to throw our hat in the ring if the time comes to do so. That makes Weepu and Cooper that we have both missed the boat on. Weepu can nail 60 metre penalty goals...

    Why we should be proud of our little general

    Kurt Gidley showed last night a champion's response to people who write you off. As soon as he came on the entire game changed momentum. I was at the game and you see more of the little things than you do on TV. Kurt was in everything. He was talking, pushing people into position and yelling out...

    Matt Orford returning home soon

    Matt Orford might be a good option for the rest of the season. In addition to this adding T-Rex and Matai to our roster would be pretty good alternative option if Gaz signs with the Dragons. Aku on one wing and the rex on the other...

    Beau Henry

    Toohey had article in the Sun Telegraph today saying we are in a very strong position to sign Beau Henry. According to Toohey we are almost over the line except for Wayne Bennett's influence in convincing him to stay. another factor is Gasnier's contract. Henry was very impressed by the club the...

    How do we make the club change at a fan level?

    Ladies and gents I just want to say first and foremost I appreciate every one of your opinions whether i agree with them or not. I want to simply open this as a topic for us all to brainstorm exactly what it is we feel we can do to make this club become better and more professional. No idea is...

    Do we look to the ESL now?

    Maybe we can find gold over there. Sam Tomkins is signed long term to Wigan. I read somewhere James Graham from Saints was possibly heading to the roosters. When you see how Gareth Ellis and Burgess are going then you have to wonder if we could entice some talent over here. Fielden is a has...

    Godspeed Parra!

    Best of luck today. I am sure it will all end well. The only thing the boys need to do is play football. They have more football in them than Melbourne. Remember The Storm won both games at Etihad. That never came up in conversation this week. They are on your turf in your district. Bring it and...

    Scotty versus Luke

    Bet Brian Smith watches this game with great interest. It is quite amazing that the Daily Telegraph hasn't made a bigger deal of this yet. I anticipate they will before Sunday's game. What do you guys generally think about these two blokes and their overall ability. I think Walshy is superior at...

    Sam Burgess

    This kid has apparently stated his desire to play in the NRL. He is the most gifted forward in England and a real handful in attack and defence. Given Smithy's close association with the Bradford Bulls do you think he is the front rower we need? He is a massive and mobile unit. I say we go all...

    Mental toughness 2009

    It is my honest belief that if the lads can stand solid for one another week in week out and mentally give it their all then we will finish at worst top four. More arrogance won't hurt either. I would like to see Crossy out there telling Perry he is coming for his Australian jumper which he has...
