i assume Rogers is just there to get some expirance in NRL blood him as there was huge raps on him in Melbourne the next Dallas Johnson i heard.
I thought he and smith were just there to warm the bench for the others, we can't have players coming off to sit on cold seats.

If they couldn't get decent minutes when we were run off our feet with 11 men, why would anyone expect better. Every week SK only gives 2 players about 20mins and most of these are at the backend when the game has been decided.

If I walk into the ground on Sunday and see that both Rogers and Smith are in the final 17 in front of Webb, I will leave the stadium. It is getting beyond a joke

Then he should be used as one... no point bringing a workhorse on the final 20 minutes. Its just a waste of a bench spot.

If Anthony Mitchell can not get a run in the top 17 of this Club given we have only one ageing dummy half then he should be released immediately, because he has no purpose being here!

I'd rather have Billy Rogers any day over Ben Smith. I'm prepared to give Rogers a go. After all, Todd Lowry was everyone's sledge with Hagan and now he's Bellamy's favourite. Obviously coaches see stuff that we don't.

that is an extordinary statement....i am shocked.....:?

I am definitely with u . That guy needs an extended run like keating has. He is definitely more talented than Keating, if I were him I would be looking for another club .

Rogers offers the team nothing from the bench. He's a tackling machine who offers next to nothing in attack. Not really the sort of impact you're looking for from the bench, thats the job of the 80min players.

That side is the weakest team we have put on the park since at least 2003/4, so i reckon Parra by plenty :crazy:

Luke Burt at fullback, Atkins and Etu on the wings, Loko and Rogers retained, Webb back on the bench.

Thoughts?

I'd love to know how much that side is worth on the open market? Reckon you might have some change from your 4.3 mill

Can I have the rest of your beer when you leave?
