    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    maybe, but I've got used to most of the identities here. I get the need for rules, I just question the logic and application of them by some on here at times.

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    i had a post removed a few months back about a sourced article on here which talked about spags and his parra4eva group. my post was that I didn't know who *edit* was but she must be important to Roy. I was messaged and instructed not to name names. slow.....

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    I would have thought a rumour by its very nature was unfounded. when a rumour is "founded" it stops being a rumour and becomes fact.

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    sometimes I wonder if a prerequisite for being a mod on here is to be pretty dumb. twizzle, what's wrong with pou's post which is basically a shot at people who believe whatever they read on the Internet? you don't strike me as an above average intelligence person but are you that slow that...

    together they would've been cheap because Evans was a rookie. it doesn't take away from the quality of the two.

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    i think there were a lot of people, including myself, that year who said not only do manly have the best young halfs pairing in the nrl, but they were the best pair. I like a lot of pou's reasoning for various things, but this is one I don't agree with.

    Eels Appoint Brad Arthur as Head Coach (Part Deux)

    a secret bid to keep their own players? why would you do that in secret? pssst Kieran and weird looking 7.... we want to keep you here, we just don't want anyone to know. great article. also the crap about Arthur's. he signed a contract extension a couple of months back. why would he...

    Parra looks bad in new NRL Ads

    the afl is 20 or so years ahead of the nrl/arl/nswrl in terms of its administration. in the mid 90s when they had that ad stacked with international big names (evander hollifield, George burns, Carl Lewis and a bunch of others in the "I'd like to see that" ad) people asked where they got the...

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    the old player x is looking at buying a house in some area rumour. love it. weren't Cameron smith and cooper cronk each looking at houses near parra a few years back?

    Is Foran overpriced?

    that was why morts and robson were in such high demand in early 2010. it would also mean shane perry should have had contracts being thrown at him after winning in 2006. there is some validity to what mjc is saying though. the reasoning just doesn't take into account consistency over a...

    let's be honest. who hasn't at some point thought lyon is a dick.

    Is Foran overpriced?

    fair enough. manly seemed depleted by injuries but have still given the comp a fair shake the last two years. taking age into account and what he has shown over the years (i think he is still only 24/25), if i was given the option of signing a half for a few years, i'd pick him ahead of...

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    if it were me being called and hassled for making a career decision i'd leave. wouldn't want to be around a place like that. if true, then i hope bozo pushes him away from the sea-wankers.

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    he may be right and foran may be thinking about benneting us but given that jackass never seems to be right or provide any quotes, i don't think gossip girl is worth listening to. you'll find more people on forums that have better cred than him. clicking the link just keeps him in his job to...

    Is Foran overpriced?

    i hope that was tongue in cheek. given they left homebush with their arses in slings after the gf i'd say the dogs could have done with a player like foran. i think hodkinson is a great kicker in general play but only a so-so ball player. foran can create space off the back of good go forward...

    Is Foran overpriced?

    he's worth 1/7 of cap space. he was already an established player and a gun at manly before Evans' star began shining and a huge part of manly's success. you can easily build a quality squad of 24 players around him on that cap space. halfs that can ball play and defend are a rare commodity...

    understandable why you wouldn't be getting excited, jake. it wouldn't be the first time media floated a duece for fans to be let down.

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    my way of thinking is that clubs suss out how much they can find for a player through third party (without officially being the ones finding the third party deals) then the payment that fits under the cap is sorted after that to come up with the total. the tricky part of the negotiation comes...

    Rumoured/Confirmed Signings and More Crap XX

    a top line player that has the ability to influence a game as much as foran (and players like hayne, smith, thurston, Evans, and a few others) isn't really taking up that much cap space if their share is no more than $1m, especially considering annual cap increases. next year I think the cap...
