    Brian Smith -> Roosters?

    I always thought history would judge Michael Hagan the better coach at the knights.

    Newcastle chase Tahu

    Oh man i would be so happy if we signed Tahu. He was my favourite player when he played here in the early 2000s.

    The "PLEASE Brian, sign a halfback" Thread

    Are you guys serious Inglis was named man of the match and given the Clive Churchill Medal playing 5/8 in the 2007 Grand Final. He has also played for Australia and will go down as one of the best players of the modern era, and you don't want him at 5/8? When was the last time Scott Dureau...

    The "PLEASE Brian, sign a halfback" Thread

    Why didn't we try to sign Brett Finch or Brett Kimmorley, they are both Newcastle juniors and i would of loved to see them playing for us again this year.

    brett finch

    I agree why sign a player like Folau when you could use the same amount of money to sign Naiqama Luila and Luke Mcdougall, if i had a choice between the two i know which one i would choose! The Broncos don't know what they are doing. Look at their squad its stacked with rep players they need...

    Brian Smith's contract

    So you are saying not only will we win a premiership but we will make the finals every year after that and become the new Brisbane? That sounds nice i guess, but i don't really know what you are basing that on as Brian Smith has not even taken us to the finals yet or won a premiership yet in 25...

    Brian Smith's contract

    New zealand finished second last in 2000 and 1st in 2002 the bulldogs finished last in 2002 and premiers 2004 The Roosters finished second last in 2006 and 4th in 2008 etc etc. In the salary cap era teams bounce around from top to bottom all the time Like i said, the NRL ladder changes...

    Brian Smith's contract

    I really don't see why he needs five years to rebuild. The NRL ladder changes dramaticly every year, the Sharks and Roosters were top 4 last year now they are bottom 4. Players who were playing rep football two seasons ago are now fringe players and vice versa. Our 2009 squad has almost no...

    Signings/Re-signings?

    Interesting Thread Smokey. Wow that is a pretty strong reserve team, take Gidley and Mullen out and there isn't much difference between the two sides. I think we have enough depth. Please no more depth signings Mr Smith. If we replaced Macdougall with maybe Stanley and Dureau with a halfback...

    Knights V Roosters Match Thread

    When i say "you" i am referring to Brian Smith not the Knights or Knights fans. Maybe this isn't the right thread to talk about it but i thought the quote from Smith was very interesting and kind of backed up what i have been saying lately. Let me just say this, i think the knights will make...

    Knights V Roosters Match Thread

    Jesus, what about this quote from Brian Smith "In saying that, the Roosters have truckloads of rep players more than us." "So on an individual-type thing, you'd have to say they've got a way better team than us. But that's not how you win footy games." Yeah you are never going to win a comp...

    Grieving winger in dash for home

    I agree with you when you say "The whole is greater than the sum of its parts" i have been thinking that all year and it is a good way to describe the type of teams that Smith moulds. But my point is, thats not the type of team that win Grand finals. Its the type of team thats like Canberra...

    Grieving winger in dash for home

    Lol what are these depth players going to do in september to make the opposition shudder? sit in the stands and glare at them? What use are a bunch of back up and utillity players sitting in the stands in a sudden death finals match. I think Smith has spent too much of the cap on backup players...

    Injuries

    So is Cross definitely gone for the season? What if we make the GF could he possibly play in it?

    Knights sign McDonnell as cover for Gidley

    About the salary cap thing for next year i might be wrong but isn't it possible to do this. Lets say in 2009 Uate is on 80k and we have 100k left to spend for this year. Couldn't we use that 100k we have left to give to Uate this year so hes 2009 contract would change from 80k to 180k plus 3...

    Wear 'n' tear: Final curtain falls on Simmo's rep career

    Yeah Lockyer was at fullback in 2000 but we all know he played at 5/8 in attack. Yes Thurston started on the bench and Sherwin started at halfback in 2004....so what? Sherwin Anasta and Thurston were all much better players then Dureau anyway. But my point is if you put bias aside for a minute...

    Uate keeping eyes on ball in contract talks

    Lets just hope Cronulla doesn't offer him 350k or something like that.....

    So Which Play Was Worse...

    I would like to see Bird back. 1.Gidley 6.Bird 7.Mullen 9.De gois Surrounded by strong defence would be a really good team. I don't think it will happen though, Steve Burraston said we wouldn't take him back earlier in the year heres the link...
