Predict 2019's retirees

[carcharias]

Inglis was the best player to play the game for a brief moment in time.
An absolute machine.
I loved watching him run over Soward.
Good times.

This gives GI two, perhaps three preseasons of testimonal matches

 

[Rhino_NQ]

He’s been a super man on the field.......the week before origin and the finals

 

[JamesRustle]

Blake Ferguson, Amos Roberts and Jarryd Hayne to retire from the NRL and take up positions as Imams.

 

[The Book of Steeden]

I cannot believe the Rabbitohs are just going to cop two more years of Inglis sleepwalking out there & getting paid top coin to do it.

I realise he’s under contract, but the fact the club didn’t even try to use his DUI as an excuse to terminate his deal struck me as utter lunacy. It’s not just that he’s washed up (if he even is), it’s his attitude. He is perfectly content for guys like Latrell Mitchell & Joey Manu to walk all over him, so long as he’s getting paid.

The Bunnies’ll be lucky to get four or five memorable performances out of him these next 24 months.

He doesn’t even attempt to compete is what kills me. Manu was running all over him in the GFQ last year, & Inglis looked as though he couldn’t care less.

Sad.

Their wingers will be busy this season if GI does go to fullback and wattles across field to hand off to one of them on each kick return until he the chasing team has a broken line he can find some space in

Not sure that it counts as a retirement, but I think we've seen the last of Hayne. Even if he's found not guilty of his merkin munching madness, I reckon you can stick a fork in him - he's done.

Another one like Inglis - super talented, but no work ethic.
Far more naturally gifted than (say) Slater, Minichello, Stewart or Lockyer but lazy as f**k.

 

[King hit]

Inglis never reached his total potential as a player imo. Don't get me wrong when he was in form he was a sight to behold and one of the most athletic gifted players of his time and achieved a lot but I thought he was lazy and didn't produce it as much as he should have/could have. Lyon and Hodges were way more consistent and ripped in every time they took the field. It was an easy decision to move him on from the Storm and Melbourne haven't missed him. If he had more of a work ethic he would've been considered as an immortal of the game.

 

[Knight Vision]

now Inglis can squeeze every penny he can for the next 24 months. Always been over rated for mine.

Huh?
Won every single thing there was to win plus got Souths a premiership.

Played busted for years too.

Everyone seems to refer to him as atheletically gifted. What does that actually mean? Most players would be athletically gifted, or they wouldnt be there. Great player, though not one of the greats.

 

[mozza91]

Has waned over the last few years but was a great player at his peak.

Close to Queensland’s most dominant player over the last 15 years. Ruined a few player’s careers by giving them an absolute bath at Origin level.

I'm reliably informed he still holds a grudge that he wasn't made first choice fullback at Storm.
Craig Bellamy once said something along the lines of; "If Greg had the work ethic of Billy Slater he might be the best player the game has ever seen. But he doesn't, and that's why Bill is our fullback".

 

[TheFrog]

Starting to look like Sam McKendry might have played his last game.

What a merkin of position poor lying salary cap cheating ( without punishment) Bellamy must’ve had to deal with.

Billy or Inglis at fullback????

Spew.

I'd take you seriously if you didn't support a club of drug cheats where the coach has been kicked out of the comp for cheating while he was disqualified for cheating.
Your mates shouldn't let mates drink and post.
