    Benji

    Is he Wily ol' Coot? Plenty of players with 'star quality' have gone to Parra & they've plateaued. Or gone backwards. Something about the place. Anyway, Matts doesn't pass the No Dickhead rule. But not to worry, there's plenty of other dickheads in the team so he'll be in familiar company. And...

    Benji

    Pre-season training under Maguire, he'll have them all fit & full of confidence. All we need is a natural leader to emerge amongst them & they'll do well at the very least. I've been thinking about the many seasons over the last decade, where the Eels looked rather good on paper, they talked...

    Who was parra jesus?

    Got any details on your assailant so we can send him a Thank-You card?

    Benji

    Exactly. Players like Benji just get smarter. When he holds the ball it looks as if he's got all the time in the world before he decides to pass, kick or take a run at the line. Keeps the opposition guessing.

    3 month countdown.........

    It is an Aussie competition. As much as I love watching a rampaging Pacific Islander winger as much as the next footy fan, I don't want a competition where it's Spot the Aussie. NZ needs to build their competition as does PNG & every other country. They need to tend to their own backyards. I'd...

    3 month countdown.........

    I'd like to know where any new team would find enough quality players. As it is there's a shortage of fullbacks & halves. Expanding the competition would just water down a competition that's already extended. Quantity over quality is never a good thing.

    Latrell Mitchell Signs

    @Souths Till I Die re Hayne ".... hanging with the wrong type of people. I think this influences your game on the field as well." Absolutely. From what I've heard, Hayne also brought his attitude to training. Haynes biggest problem was that he thought that sheer natural ability was enough...

    NSW 2020 - the Gospel According to Freddy

    Bitches Poses for Origin? What is Freddy thinking? Talk about a turd in the punch-bowl. Maybe the kid gives good head but really, Freddy needs to pick players for their talent on the field rather than whether they swallow or not. And @Rhyno , it's just wonderful that you still get a nice warm...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Douehi appears to be in excellent condition. The kid really puts in. Best of all is that he hasn't turned up making demands but rather, has said that he's happy to play wherever Madge needs him. What a refreshing attitude. It will be interesting to see who Madge picks in what positions for our...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Invited you back in? Where? "Shit stirring"? Holding a respectful discussion with @Souths Till I Die is "shit stirring" in your opinion? Gee, it's worse than I thought. You're not aware that there's medication that could probably help? We're discussing a sport here. A game that brings most of...

    Latrell Mitchell Signs

    Mitchell better be happy. He's got a fresh start at a club that's welcomed him with open arms & given him his preferred position. At Easts he was surrounded by rep players, just one of the boys. [Which I would have thought would be the best environment for a young player with so much talent &...

    2020 World Club Challenge – Roosters versus Saints

    Thought that there'd be more interest in the WCC from Easts supporters. It should be a cracking game. I'll have to make sure I'm up & early for the game. Now that we've got all the digital channels, it's a wonder that few networks replay sports games at a more reasonable hour, especially...

    Latrell Mitchell Signs

    True, that's why all eyes will be on LM, especially during the first part of the season. It's a lot of pressure for a young bloke, especially considering all the drama before he joined Souths. Off course Mitchell backs up in the sense that he's there to take a pass when a teammate makes a...

    Latrell Mitchell Signs

    Yes you're right on many points. I absolutely see the similarities between GI & LM body type. I've got a real attitude about GI when he deserted NSW, his place of birth & where he grew up, to play for the Cane Toads. There's no excuse for such treachery, such disloyalty. If it was anyone else...

    Doueihi. Stays or Goes

    Look, I love a battle of wits as much as the next bloke buy I feel that it's just not right to go at it with an unarmed player. You're either really confused or blinded by bitterness that it sounds like we're talking about a completely different subject. So Wily ol' Coot, I'll leave you to...

    Doueihi. Stays or Goes

    Don't be bitter. Douehi has come home. Even Latrell understands. At this point Mitchell is just raw potential. Adam Douehi is a team player who puts in. He will not throw a dummy spit, have a big sook ... er, I mean, he wont take time off for 'mental health issues' when he's asked to fill a...

    Latrell Mitchell Signs

    Everyone is saying the same thing. George Burgess said it. Footy supporters have been saying it and Freddy is saying it. Quote from the provided link; Fittler "A lot has got to happen for Latrell. His fitness is going to play a big part. It's a very different position to the one he plays at the...

    Doueihi. Stays or Goes

    Oh you poor miserable bastard. Shit, even Latrell felt for the situation that his arrival put Adam in. If I was a gambling man, I'd put a few dollars on AD doing just as well at FB as LM, if not better. That's IF Adam plays FB. He hasn't made any demands like a spoilt brat with a swollen head...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Wily ol' Coot - hope you've read this post on the WestTigers forum from Frank who obviously is not a Tigers supporter. Notice how Frank didn't come to stir shit but rather, to discuss certain points about the team & offer his opinion? Not that I can speak for others but I for one appreciate...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    This ^^^^. A reduction towards the salary cap for each year for players who've been with the club for 5 years, or maybe after 3 years if a club junior whose come through the ranks. There would have to be a limit of how many players get the discount off course. Clubs with money or rich...
