Centre: Hymel Hunt (Gold Coast)

Great name.
Reminds me of the US swimmer Misty Hyman

Ben Barba -> Broncos 3 years

Anyone got anything to say about the fact that Parramatta has zero players in the Holden Cup team of the year and our awesome recruiting

Of the five players awarded player of the year honours one is no longer playing NRL and the other four have struggled or are struggling to establish themselves in the NRL. Ben Hunt has only this season managed to hold his place as a halfback as opposed to a utility.

We have had players 'make' the side twice and Tony Williams is playing pooh at the Dogs and Cheyse Blair will move to his third club in three years.

Making the side doesn't assure you that your recruiting has been good.

I was hoping the same thing.

Considering our board and their associates, someone with political experience would be perfect ( along with his nrl experience)

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Maybe they could give Paul Osborne a call.

Exactly. I thought he would be a great appointment.

Annesley must have other qualifications. A referee and politician aren't enough to get you a CEO gig ate they?
What was he doing when he was a ref? Maybe a lawyer?

I think people might want him on the board?

He was footy director then chief operating officer of the nrl for quite a few years, I think from 1995 to 2007 that should give him a good idea how to run a club.

This is in addition to be the nsw sports minister for two years (the department I reckon would have a budget a bit bigger then the average nrl club)

Suspended indefinitely apparently.
He's only doing this to get out of Canberra. I say it's time the NRL steps in and suspends him as well. It's clear he wants to come back to Sydney. Ban him from the NRL. He can f**k off to England, or not play at all. This is totally unacceptable. He shouldn't be allowed to just waltz off to another NRL club 'cause he wants to.

He won't be f**king off to the UK in the short-term. He has criminal charges outstanding (unless I've missed some miraculous resolution to that case). People seem to forget that.

You missed my point. He shouldn't be playing NRL.

Suity

Nah I didn't miss that part of it (and I agree). Just pointing out that he can't frig off to the UK until his court case is resolved (and will only get a work permit there if the case is resolved in his favour).

 

[El Diablo]

he won't be if found guilty when he goes to court

F**k that. I'd prefer a no sh*t player policy. I think my strategy would be a lot more successful then yours.
