    Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

    I probably have simplified his skills, but he’s also only played one game against a team who put their clubs back in the car after 20mins. Granted he had a great game & looks a talent but I don’t think he’s going to get that freedom very often. He, Yeo & Capewell are similar players, similar...

    Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

    Both Burns & Yeo are hole runners, much like Capewell is. All are capable of playing centre, none of them are going to trample an opponent on their way to the try line or flick an offload in traffic. I guess it does depend on where they see Yeo playing this year. I wouldn't be too quick to move...

    Meh, he's just Yeo. He, Yeo & Burns essentially all play the same way. Good player, but not what I would of been after.

    Rumoured and Confirmed signings - Part 4

    Not sure on that. Small sample size & there was a lot of fanfare about him... he did look solid (if I remember correctly he seemed to make quite a few handling errors) but I didn't think he looked like an exceptional talent. Maybe he'll look better this year or in a better team, but I'd say the...

    Katoa has already shown in the 3 months since leaving the club he's better then people say he is. I feel vindicated already.

    Drinkwater will just move into the halves you’d think. Where that leaves Clifford or Morgan, who knows. Unless we can get an elite fullback - I’d put Mitchell in this category - I can’t see much of an upgrade on Edwards. He’ll be even better this year.

    Where were you boys when I was running for primary school captain all those years ago? Could of used the support. But nah I’m sweet just contributing opinions everyone disagrees with.

    I wouldn't say I dislike IC, I just don't think he was the right man for the job & I think the club making that decision, in addition to sacking a coach based on underachieving only to hire a coach who doesn't think the squad is good enough anyway, has essentially made the last 5 years...

    Good to have you back to your prickly best @betcats . Surprisingly I think you've missed my point. Again.

    Are the majority of people out with pitchforks for Mitchell based on perceived attitude issue, the same people who would've died on their sword defending Moylan against the exact same allegations? Well I'll be... Reading this anyone would think Latrell Mitchell is the size of Dave Taylor & the...

    Lynch me up if we're winning the comp & he's just scored his 20th try in Rnd 10. But yeh I do get your point. Not saying I (or others) agree with his points but I do agree with his right to say it & I think that's where most of his support would come from.

    They’d want their brand associated with a winner / winning team. Few rounds in, we’re 3 - 0 & it’d be business as usual. Get on board. There’s players at clubs who have done far worse & that haven’t impacted their teams sponsorship. I also think for us specifically, we represent a working...

    Nothing more?? Get off the turps Umina. Absolute weapon at centre, wing or at the back. Supreme athlete, would easily be challenging for a rep jersey if he came back next year. Chuck him on the wing & there wouldn’t be a winger who would challenge him in the air.

    I'd take Folau in a heartbeat, he'd offer a hell of a lot to our/any side. Imagine having that sort of aerial threat on an edge + his running game. You might lose a sponsor or 2 but I think you'd probably pick up a couple along the way.

    I thought that was my most obvious bit of bait yet.

    Hindys allowed to have an opinion, nothing wrong with that. Tbh he's probably right, Hayne would improve our backline. @betcats you mentioned you'd rather Naden then Mitchell last week & we don't hold that against you.

    Luciano Leulia is the one I would of been looking at but seems he is off to the Tigs. I think we could do with a bit of variety in our pack.

    Thought we would of held onto Winterstein tbh. Was good value for us last year, underused imo. Smart player, good defensively & ran the best lines in the club.

    That’s why Tamou is there. He brings the experience & leadership. I think the obsession with experience is overdone. Api as well.
