Good to see my words impact u so deeply, even the words not aimed at u.

Embarassing myself????

You need to go back and read your post, you have quoted my post , and then proceeded to comment on a number of things that i hadn't mentioned in my post , as i said in my original post at you ,get your facts straight ,dont quote me then comment on multiple posts from other people.

What too busy(read as lazy) to start a separate reply for each one .

I don't take kindly being told to wake up to myself.

Also you might want to try using correct word spelling instead of abbreviating your words like you are texting...very lowbrow,although does work as a fair indicator of IQ level.


As I stated before i can't cop arrogant clowns like yourself who are forever telling people how they should think.

Go and be a schoolteacher mate , the kids can't talk back to you there ,you'll always be right. Just like you think you are on here.

He did not look very happy at the post match press interview did he? If Mary and Doust have costs us the extension of his contract, it would be devastating for me and other like-minded fans.

This Mary appointment is feeling more and more like the Price appointment all over again; I really hope I'm wrong.

Now the Dogs are not only saying they won't release Kasiano for 2015, they are looking to keep him long term. It?s unbelievable that Mary and Doust have not made any recruitment moves as yet.

Just goes to show that if you have a good coach and good Club administrators/staff, it seems you do not have to pay overs and mabe can even pay unders for marquee players. The Rorters have recently claimed they paid unders for Jennings.

Nah its just not a fair playing field, these clubs are cheating the cap.

Hahaha ur a sad piece of work!!! Get wateva u have lodged up ur ass out and relax... i can post my opinions and if i happen to disagree with ur views then ill say so, the latter part of wat i wrote was a generalisation, as in in my point of view people need to wake up to themselves if they think we can sign every available player.
and if my spelling bothers u, skip past my posts, its simple!!
The fact is, every person who posts on this forum is entittled to state there opinion!!!
And its only natural peoples points of view will differ, then theres people like u who think everyone must agree with u say and if anyone disagrees with u u run and cry and get ur back up!!!
Thats just sad... yes thats my opinion, maybe u need to get out more? Get laid? Or even better, get a life???

Absolutely agree about everyone having equal opportunity to air their views and i have reiterated that fact many times on here.

Telling someone to WAKE UP TO THEMSELVES isn't an opinion it is an order and posting it in a post directly aimed at my post means you are directing it at me,might pay to clarify what you are saying and to whom it is directed if you plan on bundling mutiple replies into one post .

You posted on a Rugby league forum at 2-14 on a Sunday morning and you're telling me to get a life, says it all really.

I see Cowboys are making a big play for McGuire from Broncos, Penrith setting their sites on Russell Packer and Titans about to sign Ben Hannant...while we wait for Novemebr 1 when Mullholand takes up his position...come on boys get off your arses and earn your money. Our recruitment poeple are far too comfortable....

Sick of reading what other clubs, even those with better forwards than us, are doing.
Who are we actually trying to sign. Did we want Proctor and Sims but missed out? Why didn't we chase Grant ?
Hannant will go to Gold Coast.

Half the team apparently on the choping block, one stalwart on the brink of leaving, not one single player rumoured on here in recent months has not signed with us. Season is over and we've got no new signings...so it's all good according to the club?

For 2015 we need a healthy mix of good experienced players and some young juniors coming through. We need to shed some off-contract players and even a couple still on contract.

We have some exciting NYC players coming through and maybe a couple of Cutters players that will step up next year however, we urgently need to buy 2-3 good props and a couple of first grade centres to make us competitive in 2015.

I think 2 props (one of which has some decent experience) will be fine, as well as a Joel Thompson-style right backrower (ie, quick, strong, aggressive, good line running). I wouldn't mind a strike centre but I think that Mata'utia and Runciman are adequate given the quality of the rest of our backs. Would also like a decent backup hooker, or the likes of McCrae/Garvey to get a decent run.

Guys like Matthews, Ah Mau, Stockwell (given his injury) are simply depth atm, shouldnt be in our Top 17 in 2015 if we are to compete. They should join guys like Fonnua-Blake, Wakeman, Stowers, O'Brien should make up the core of the Cutters pack so we are ready for injuries. Crook and Hutcho will hopefully be playing halves for Cutters and competing to prepare for when Benji finishes up. I'd also like to see those guys + Bird rotated as utility to give them a taste of first grade for the first half of the season.

Im not that into team lists, but hopefully our forwad pack looks like
8. Creagh
9. Rein
10. Merrin
11. Thompson
12. UNKNOWN (would like to look at Tom Symonds)
13. JDB

14. New prop
15. New prop
16. Frizell
17. Bird/Crook/Hutchinson/Garvey/backup hooker

Thompson needs to be our right edge back rower. His defence is better than Frizell's. Friz is a starting back rower also. Kind of makes Creagh redundant, however he has been one of our best n the front row. He needs to put 5kg on his frame to permanently stay in the front row.

Looking at the NYC and cutters, we have some big units their. We have 2 kids in the NYC who have 10-12 kg on our starting props, Cooper and Creagh. We probably actually do need a Willie Mason type of signing along with another experienced prop either from here or England, who along with Creagh, can help mentor these young players. We do need a need any more fringe first graders!!

8. Mason
9. Rein
10. Creagh
11. Thompson
12. Frizell
13. Merrin

14. Brid/Garvey, a back up hooker/utility. ie someone big enough to also play lock.
15. JDB
16. Another experienced prop
17. Someone from Cutters or NYC. O'Brien? Fonua-Blake (He is 188cm and 116kg, 19 in November this year)

What do we think of Russell Packer? Will be released from jail 5th Jan 2015. Most likely will go to the Penny's having been previously coached by Cleary and also Gould has visited him in jail. Bennett is keen to take him to the Bronco's as well, however I don't believe those clubs will offer him a big contract and maybe we can still snag him paying unders. Thoughts?
