    Dean Collis signs with Bulldogs

    He will be a loss, for sure. And I am surprised but maybe he feels he'd benefit from the move, or Lawrence is getting all the attention. I actually don't have a clube why.

    Where has the cash gone

    Good questions. But don't you think Heino would have gotten an upgrade and they could be putting some in the warchest for Robbie and Benji. Actually, I don't know where it has gone.

    Reading the Tea Leaves- WT Recruitment

    How old was Skandalis when we let him go? 29? And we replaced with him with Ryan O Hara who while unlucky with injury played less games that Benji in the 3 years we was with us. I would rather we kept Skando those three years. I say give him a shot. He'll have more impact off the bench that...

    Dean Collis signs with Bulldogs

    Yeah, I've seen him have some great games. But he hasn't bounced back all that well since he got injured. I'm a bit dense, westie, are you saying Ryan is a crap winger? Or having Ryan outside would have made Collis better? I don't think our wingers get much ball from our centres at all -...

    Tigers After Carney For 2010

    I used to think Gibbs would be something but he hasn't been the player since he was knocked down by the odious O'Meley in that game against the dogs in 2006, I think it was. He can tackle all day but doesn't run the ball hard enough. Are they going to play Skandalis this year?

    Tigers in '09

    I'd be happy with Gallant at the back from what I saw last year, but I think Tandy is off to the Sea Eagles, at least that was the rumour anyway. I think the new prop will be the kids from the 20s - Davidson.

    Liam Roach the new prop?

    A lanky Corey Payne. You're really selling him to me! Thanks for the info.

    Liam Roach the new prop?

    So we bought another backrower?

    Garreth Ellis Stats

    Maybe I am looking at him through rose-tinted (wanting him to be better than what I see) but he put a good hit on Steve Price, didn't he, in the Australia game. He wasn't 'the best second rower in the world' but he looked big enough, and maybe will come good. I don't know if many of the Pommie...

    Beau Ryan re-signs

    It is a sad picture you paint. My hope - being a lapsed Catholic - is for Lazarus to help us rise from the dead. And we buy a prop or two.

    What players will get a tap on the shoulder

    I agree. We can beat teams when we tackle well, and back each other. And have a bit of luck with injuries to front rowers. I don't know who we are paying too much, but yes, if we could afford some okay bench forwards like George Rose or give one of the BRET/Wests front rowers a go like Tandy or...

    Balmain vs. North Sydney - finals game

    It's interesting. They say that when a leader goes things get all shaken up for a while...looks like the 'who will replace Hodgo' isn't anywhere near sorted...Gallant, Ryan, MCDonnell, Lazarus...now Foley perhaps. Now we just need Lipini Paea

    Balmain vs. North Sydney - finals game

    Yeah, isn't his name Shaun or something. Is pretty good too, isn't he? I saw him last year when I think Newtown beat Balmain at henson, and he looked good.

    Balmain vs. North Sydney - finals game

    I am going as someone who is supposed to just shut up and not embarass their wife, but I'll try a few death looks at him if you like.

    Balmain vs. North Sydney - finals game

    Won't be able to go as meeting the PM (really) but wishing Balmain all the best to make it five in a row. Hope Hanbury wasn't badly injured and Lewis Brown plays but mostly just hope they tackle like they have been and we should be in with a show. Go the tiges!

    Another Pathetic Game vs Manly

    This was always going to be a tough match, le's face it, once we had to do everything right to win. We didn't. They got lucky with calls, we spilled the ball or didn't back ourselves, and we don't have a forward pack to give us a roll on. It will need to be a big broom.

    Te'o Dropped

    Daily Tele today, said he's be turning out for Balmain against Auckland. No heart. Hate to say but he won't be missed.

    Matthew Head

    I'm sure you are right, and we did know he was injury prone when he came to the club, but we have nursed/bought plenty of injury-prone players before...Benji and Scott Prince being examples. I don't know why the tone was always so much different with Matt Head. Like Benji I'm sure he doesn't go...

    Team v Manly

    The only positive I can see coming out of the Parra game was one of our key players didn't get horribly injured which is the tradition take-away from playing the Eels. Of course I have just jinxed someone I know. Oh, and perhaps Ben T'go! may be dropped. Although Coach Sheens picking the world's...
