Cronk is a better 7 than every player besides JT. That's not a slight on Hunt either, I'm stoked to have him

I would love both though

I know Cooper Cronk has never heard of St George Illawarra, he can't come to a place he has never heard of!

When told "but you play that team, you must have heard of them", Cronks reply was....."that was no game, that was a training run"

So no, he won't be coming.

Hunt hasn’t yet laced up a boot for us and people want to fantasise about Hunt to hooker with Cronk (who we WILL NOT be signing) to trump him for HB.
That will do me.

Yep, unbelievable, I agree with you.

By the way, when Cronk plays without Cam Smith, storm win only 44% of their games.

Abysmal!! That's Mary like numbers.

Hunt wins a LOT more playing without Smith every week across many years.

Get Hunt on ASAP I say!

You're gonna bring out statistics again after statistics showed Bellamy is objectively the best coach of all time?

But he isn't, statistics said Norm Provan, Churchill and Jack Gibson are way way in front.

Perceive it how you prefer to, but to leaugies, a one club coach can't even be considered.

It's like saying Alan Jones is the greatest union coach of all time because he had great success with ONLY the Wallabies.

Bellamys record of 13 finals losses from 15 campaigns is worse than average.

But each to their own mate.

Very glad you said this as I suspected you would. Each of those three have coached well under half the games Bellamy has, who is now around the 400 mark. There reached a point where raw win percentage must be factored in with the number of sample data

If a coach coaches 10 games and wins 7, this does not make him a better coach than Bellamy despite a 70% win rate. Bellamy is in the high 60s even with over 400 games to his name

As for being "way, way in front" well that's just untrue. Provans is 0.4% ahead despite a few hundred less games to his name. Bellamy would likely overtake that record within a year, if not certainly before the end of his career.

The fact remains Bellamy is a cheat.
Nothing he has done can be acknowledged. Exactly like lance Armstrong, cheats.

Coached one team his entire career.
They cheated.

Got it? They cheated.

Exactly. Any coach in the modern game who can have near as makes no different a 70% win rate is undeniable. They cheated like nothing else but since 2010 they've been buying nobodies and turning them into the best team in the competition because they work harder than anyone else and they have a no-holds-barred honesty session after every single game, plus a million other reasons.

You really should reconsider your decision to try to use maths to prove your point.

Maths is clearly not your strong suit.

I'd argue that the fifteen campaigns with seven grand finals (yes, including the four they cheated) is the real stat to be observed. I mean, Bennett has proven he can win competitions with the Australian team or at least a team full of international quality players. Bellamy did it with Tim Glasby.

Let's hope MARY becomes a clone of BELLAMY and we cheat our way to a few grand final wins.

Easy tiger.

Just pointing out your poor maths. Let me make it simple for you.

1/8 teams win the final series, therefore this is the average.

2/15 > 1/8
