    Luc is an out and out edge who can be damaging given space Put him in the middle and he will tire quickly and start arm grabbing as his lateral movement is not great.

    In respect of Lawrie it's probably rest breaks.

    Can’t stand those that prance around like royalty thinking that a mere flesh wound is a mortal blow and then refuse to hang around for the rest of the fight and instead interact with others claiming a false victory.

    He’s a knob jockey of the 1st order who has poor comprehension skills. When you out point him which isn’t hard he will bag you and put you on ignore and then engage a few acolytes so as to support his unfounded position. Your last sentence was a cracker.

    Lawrie was adopted by the fan base because he was a local junior and at that time they had little else to cheer for. Despite the odd biggish hit here and there his performances overall were generally mediocre and the notion that Bennett would possibly have taken him to the Phins is simply...

    Ryles was the JWH of his time except the refs were tougher and tbph even more biased Tough, uncompromising, skilful and put the opposition pack on notice. If Bennett had of been coaching then we would have won 2 or 3 comps with Ryles a centrepiece of the team. Parra picked him because he is...

    You seem to contradict yourself a bit re Toby C “Toby is not yet a current middle” “Ryan is not a walk up starter like Toby” Regardless of what happened in KOE cup it was blatantly obvious that 1st grade received plenty of beltings and had several woeful second half collapses and a message...

    Plenty of great head line acts played at the Taj and their concerts would be over a few days ofter including a Sat or Sun matinee show. The line up to get tickets when bookings opened would be out the foyer and into the car park before the club opened its doors for the day. I can remember Dad...

    Back in the day the Taj put on some great shows. The 1st time I saw him Roger he was the main support act to Neil Sedaka. Sedaka made a big boo boo and sang his top 2 or 3 songs at the beginning of his show and after he finished them the crowd started calling out for Roger to come back on but...

    So you don't believe in if anymore? Saw this bloke at the Taj many years ago as he 1st started out on his long career and he was fantastic live.

    The defence in 1st grade was already disgusting as was the attack I’m sure I’m not alone in saying that many supporters would have been prepared to have a player with the pace of Tamale irto score a try out there instead of the slow poke poor tackling Feagai’s etc. Now you’re telling me that...

    Not sure of the point you're trying to make? The post you responded to was all about S F and his selections during 2024 and not about who was coming or who was chasing for 2025.

    I don't agree. Plenty of options he could have tried but chose not to. The only good thing to come out of some of the selections he persisted with is that a few have been offloaded or are being sent back to Reggie's hopefully never to return or replaced.

    Ok, I'll admit the post may have been a bit confusing to you so lets rephrase it as per the intent "after other coach's failed investment in youth (Sullivan, Sloan, Lawrie, Amone) plus SF own investment in failed players like Lawrie, Sloan (still youth), Feagai x 2 (were only 22 with not a lot...

    FFS wake up and at least try and understand the context of the post which was in response to a question about Ryles & his decision re Gutherson. I believe SF is now on a far better trajectory in regards to what we actually need at this time as compared to what the Eels need and that is...

    Ryles is in a completely different place to where we are at. He has a 4 year contract and realises that he needs to have his club firing mid-way through his 3rd year so he has 2-3 years to rebuild and will use that time to bring his younger hopefully to be long term players through and at the...
