    Latrell Mitchell Signs

    You've never made a typo & everyone who has is "stupid" Duh, ok then genius. "Prediction or hope"? That's a good question. I'm not sure to be perfectly honest. Considering that we have the worlds best FB in Tedesco at SOO, I'm probably leaning towards hope, lol. Tigers are "garbage"? So it's...

    Latrell Mitchell Signs

    Mitchell has the potential to be a brilliant fullback .... but, if he plays with the same attitude he had at Easts in 2019 then he will struggle. There's already a mountain of expectation on his shoulders that I don't think that he will handle well. Mitchell goes missing in games and often does...

    General Discussion Thread

    That's IF he works out at fullback. LM goes missing in games. Often doesn't back up. If he has the same attitude at fullback, then he's going to leak tries. In defense, fullbacks must always be in position & anticipate where the opposition is heading. Mitchell has an attitude problem. Freddie...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    We dodged a bullet there. Apart from the fact that he's inconsistent, regularly drops the ball, often passes to the linesman, my prediction is that he'll spend more time injured over the next four years than on the field. How he ever made it to representative sides is beyond my comprehension.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    That would surprise me big time if Madge deserted. He signed on to rebuild & has been given the green light to choose the players that he believes will suit his plans. To walk out now would be a real dog act. Cleary lost a lot of respect for basically being in the same position. He made some...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    No I didn't get to see all the games. The ones I did get to watch Thompson played well & I can't remember him dropping the ball [Something that makes most of us groan in frustration] Memories a funny thing. I guess that what sticks most in my mind is that he puts in week in week out from what...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    The only excuse to move Thompson to the wing, would be if we signed a fullback who was head & shoulders above him. Fullback is off course one of the most important positions on the field. It requires a player who puts in 100%, who's reliable under the high ball & in defense, a player who's never...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    I'm unable to fathom why others keep suggesting that we need a new fullback. Thompson handled the position well & he's one player who really puts in. To be perfectly honest, I'd be far more comfortable with a dependable fullback like Thompson than Mitchell or Moylan in that position. No need to...

    Forget Latrell, my left field signing

    $500K sounds about right. If he's getting $1million a year then one can only imagine how the Broncos must feel considering his run of injuries, lol. [Me no like the Broncs] Can't see them paying half that to offload him. Even if they paid $300K I'd say no. $700K is way too big a risk. It's a...

    Forget Latrell, my left field signing

    If you're referring to my post where I mentioned James Graham; my point was that if we're going to offer huge money for a player we need someone with a James Graham type attitude. The kind of bloke who the younger players look up to. His kind of never-say-die attitude rubs off just as much as a...

    Forget Latrell, my left field signing

    Has Bird recovered from those injuries? What sort of money would he be asking? Would be great if the Broncos kick in towards his pay. That would be a nice change & a bit of a bonus.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Not sure why the quote doesn't show - maybe because I put him on ignore? IDK - but for the record that was directed at WA Tiger. That is all.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Mitchell has had three different managers in a year? [Deacon, Rushton & now Rose apparently] Would like to hear the story behind that. Roosters offered Mitchell $800K a year & he knocked it back? That's a decent offer to stay with the team he's won two Grand Finals. A young bloke in Mitchells...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Right, so you're permitted to get your last dig in but I'm not. If you don't want to face reality then that's your choice to remain ignorant I guess. As I'm not permitted to respond & you don't want to hear anything apart from your virtue signalling snowflake agenda, I'll bid you good day...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    Yeah knocking on our door because other clubs will offer him $6-7K & we'll have to make up the difference. There's the suggestion that he could go to Rugby. Not because he loves the game but because he's chasing the $$$. What a poor attitude. Personally I'd much prefer a player who loves...

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    For really big money we need someone who can lead by example, on the field & at training. Someone with a solid work ethic. A player who puts in week in, week out. A player who the young 'uns look up to. Take the Pom James Graham for example. he expects the best from himself as well as his...

    1st Test D/N: Australia v NZ at Perth, Dec 12-16 2019

    Hate to agree with you but yeah, the 'snicker' [or whatever it's called] clearly showed it didn't touch the glove. The very last hot shot replay showed a hot spot on the helmet. Why didn't they show a side-on hot shot angle which would have proved the ball didn't hit the gloves? In normal...

    1st Test D/N: Australia v NZ at Perth, Dec 12-16 2019

    They'll be facing a possible follow-on at this rate. It's only day three. The bowlers could do with a break. Bat tonight & for a session tomorrow then send them back in.

    1st Test D/N: Australia v NZ at Perth, Dec 12-16 2019

    Just about everyone plays spin better than Khawaja. He's one of those players who only gets a few runs when the team bats well but he never stands up when needed. Thank the Sky Spirits that Labuschagne has locked up the #3 spot.

    Rumours (signings, sackings & other NRL stuff)

    So you're saying that Goodes is a racist? Yeah, I'd agree. He was booed because they think he's a wanker. He played the victim AND the racist card. I'm sick of the double standard. Virtue signalling at it's best. I thought we were a multi-cultural society. We're supposed to be all equal. Yes...
