Mate get farked. Poor decision from the club. Very poor management. End of story. He should never have been allowed to go. Don't f**king talk shit to me. The fact he's been allowed to sign and announce his signing now is pathetic.

You have no idea mate. You have absolutely no idea. Go f**k yourself.

How can Doust or anyone at St George match what $tinkler is offering, unfortunately the fat merkin gets what ever he wants, Bennett also has gone back on his word and said he won't pillage our players. Newcastle have to be looking to get more as the cap rule doesn't apply to them.

In Wayne we DON'T trust. He will cop it when he comes back to kogarah.

Reading through the last few pages, I'm seeing a lot of hysterical fans, lead by BBC.
Talk about panic stations! Last week everyone wanted to bag Beau for his performance against the Knights. We matched, and got over the top of a good pack in Newcastle with what we have.
It's not worth having a fit over. I think BBC you need a valium and a nice lie down.
What a merkin. :lol:

Actually you would not have seen it in England but a couple of days ago Bennett concluded the Knights pack was Light .

This is the very result of what your ideals produce BBC.
Bennett had no loyalty to us, why would he? He was a hired hand.
If you just go out and pay huge money for existing talent, you'll never get loyalty.
What were you expecting to happen?

We'll miss Scott, he leaves a big hole in our pack. However, Merrin and Debelin were priorities. Nevertheless I think with Scott leaving, after Smith and Costigan, we have lost th intimidation factor of 2010.

I've been a fan for too long to believe that we are going make a big name signing. Lets hope we can at least retain our other big players now.

I'm back in Oz, need to update the location bit.
K Snowden, D Buderus, A Cuthbertson, C Houston, Z Taia, N Costigan is a fair old pack Ted.

Mate beau Scott is the back bone of our pack.
You can't cover him with young players. His experience and toughness is not something a up and comer can bring. Dark day

It is a huge loss no doubt, to say otherwise would go against all the good things I've said about him over the last few years. I'm just saying he's not irreplaceable. I would expect a new signing to replace him. Beau annoucing it now at least gives us the rest of the year to find someone.

Yes its a big loss, but the club has to stand its ground, bidding wars only favour the player and manager in the end.

Unless one of you is Doust or Price in disguise, none of us here know what else is going on in the background, although yes we now surely must have free cash to be spent on someone.

The Stewarts both >28 y.o. would not be the best use of this cash IMO, as their best is behind them, just like Beau.

Just writing what I read ? Been trying to find it without luck so far and yes it's a fair pack . Don't know their ages but I'd suggest an Oldish pack.

Talk about an overreaction. Who gives a f**k. The guy hasn't played a good game in over year. He had a pretty ordinary GF and last year he was ordinary all year. He comes with a huge price tag, a penalty and a knock on every game. He stifles the attack when he is at centre and the one thing he had going for himself was defence and well how did that go last week??? He was ordinary against the tigers last year in the semi and Lawrence ripped him a new arse hole in the competition match last year as well. He rushed up in the origin to cost NSW in game one. He is overrated. If you watch his game closely you will see that he costs us in a number of areas nearly every week. When you consider the price tag he comes with... I say see ya later Beau. :cool: Im happy we didn't fork out big bucks for him.

f**k you Wayne you sell out :p

Think about it like this...De Belin has more talent than Beau and he wasn't there in 2010. Direct swap??!! I agree with Gypsy, Willow and Mickeylane...I LOVE MICKEYLANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All we as Knight supporters can say is it is bittersweet this signing. Beau is a tremendous player. I hope u guys go in for Cronk. He will be worth every cent. It is understandably frustrating for you. We don't look to stick the boot in. For all the bitterness toward us i don't really blame you. It would s### me just like when we endured losing player after player. We will offload players.

You should be a little perturbed . You see to realise some posters Stewart wet dreams we will have to release another player on similar money and of similar quality to Scott . And thats not counting trying to get Bretts brother either. The other question is How style might be feeling right about now at fullback . And yet another question is what happens if we shed Players and Don't sign a Stewart or Beale?


Calm down father ted, you are normally pretty level headed but you are going over the top mate.

Beale and Stewart aren't the only options. Stanley might make a great fullback. Don't assume we are looking for a fullback and nothing else. Further, Gaz, Moltzen and Scott have left enough money for Snake if he wants to come so we shouldn't have to release another player of the same ability as Beau.

Yeah Scott isn't a bad player but the price has to be right and like the statement said, he just commanded too much money so its not worth trying to keep him.

Well who would have thought... I thought he'd never leave us, but there you go.. I loved him too but he can be frustrating to watch sometimes, gives away plenty of penalty's.. I loved what I saw of De Belin last week, I think young blood is what we need

Yeah you are dead right. He is the only player in the team that would run near the side line and throw a stupid panic pass when he isn't even going to get bundled over. People think of it as a loss but when you consider that De Belin is new to the team, you add a player and I would rather have De Belin and money in the bank then Beau Scott.
