    Todd Carney

    A lot was made of his off field dramas but I think injuries really killed his on-field game anyway. Without a threatening running game he definitely wasn't the same player. He was seriously good at one point and he'd still be a good signing for a few clubs even now (he's certainly better than...

    Our players from today who could be in a Grand Final winning team

    Er, pretty much all of them. For example, Terepo isn't very good, but Souths would still have won the grand final last year if he was on the bench instead of Jason Clark. The problem isn't that some of the players are outright terrible and would be massive liabilities for any side, but...

    Yo Quinty. :p

    You're a better team without Gallen.

    I don't think this is true, but what is true is that the difference between the team without Gallen and the team with him isn't anywhere near as big as it should be for a player of his calibre. He should be a much bigger net positive to the team than he is and it is absolutely a coaching issue...

    SBW and Ramadan

    We call that taxation over here I believe.

    Potential replacements at 5/8

    There's something to be said for not making your primary first receiver option make 30 tackles a game right up the guts, to be fair. It's why Peats was so valuable; his defensive workrate was so good that it allowed Paulo focus more on his attacking game.

    Potential replacements at 5/8

    While this is a much better way of describing the team structure than "Sandow is half, Norman is five-eighth and Paulo is lock", I still think this is a bit of a simplistic way of looking at it. Sandow and Norman get about the same amount of touches as Paulo when all three are on the field...

    Storm won't make the top 8 in 014!

    Ha this is an absurd position. If anyone is to blame for this it's the NRL for insisting on a complete circus midseason with teams playing without Origin players repeatedly.

    Have you posted whilst

    I've never partaken myself but apparently it's quite common. Known as "poosting" in some parts.

    '14 // R18 // Mon // Panthers 35-34 Broncos // Sportingbet

    Pfft; they only got where they are due to the favourable draw.

    Paul Mitry's NRL Table

    Penrith can't be ahead of Penrith.

    Paul Mitry's NRL Table

    For the purposes of this thread I support Penrith, meaning his post is not only incorrect when applied to me now but in fact has always been incorrect and always will be.

    Paul Mitry's NRL Table

    Penrith have won a whole two games more than Paul has predicted so far. Stop the presses.

    Sterlo show says Bennett done deal

    Yeah, agreed. I'd be a bit disappointed if Mary didn't keep the job personally, but that's purely from a selfish perspective as I want to see how he'd go; I don't actually support this club. :p

    Sterlo show says Bennett done deal

    The fact that he's a rookie means there is little evidence to have proven his abiity as an NRL coach; it's an inherent risk even after half a season as an interim coach. That's why the fact that he's a rookie matters -- not because good coaches who are rookies can't succeed, but because we don't...
