    ben hornby = useless

    Thanks Willow for the background on '76 with Langlands and Smith. What I said about Ben Hornby I wish was in another thread because I don't like or agree with Hornby being useless; but I also know people loath a new thread along a similar theme. I'd much prefer Hornby leave on his own terms but...

    ben hornby = useless

    What do Tony Quirk and Mark Shulman have in common. They took over from club legends in 1976. Graham Langlands evaluated his own performance and pulled the pin in April of that season; Billy Smith ( our last great halfback in my opinion) finished the year in reserve grade. One determined his...

    Pricey

    I think he has done a very good job considering the pre season perception of many that Bennett's loss equaled our spiralling out of the semis. There were very few people who nominated us for top 8 finish. To have us in the top 4 one third into the season is a great result, with less Origin...

    Squad v Roosters

    What is it with our centres...Prior listed there now with Stanley out. On the positive Rein back in and Miller given a shot on the bench with De Belin out...will miss his enthusiasm and defence but will be good to see how Miller aims up.

    Man of the match

    I am seeing Soward having his best game of the year with his kicking game gaining us field position and try assists; as well as running more tearing the Roosters apart...that's my hope anyway.

    what it means to be one of us

    I have really struggled this weekend with very little league to watch; I even found myself watching the Swans match... So thanks for the red v video, great to watch and stirring. Can't wait for Wednesday v the Roosters

    Big Dell off contract this year

    I wonder if Dell does a Fatty Vautin and moves his son up to gold coast /Brisbane when he turns 16 so he plays maroon not blue.

    Hornby Out of All-Stars game

    I figure the role is as a utility and you'd hardly imagine Bennett picking the logical choice, Gidley and risk injury

    While were at it - Best Dragons Try

    There have been too many but the one that sticks in my mind was Teddy Goodwin's effort in the Grand Final of 1977 as reported below. "Then, just before half time, 'Lord Ted' scored a miraculous try when he burst through and chipped...

    The ones that got away

    Wycliff Palu ...would have loved to have seen how he turned out for us rather than the Wallabies.

    in the Leader tomorrow

    For what it is worth the Telegraph today suggested that a ruling may be handed down later this week. I suppose it keeps us interested during the off season but it will be great if those in charge can get on with making a decision NRL salary cap auditor Ian Schubert is expected later this week...

    Tim Moltzen ... (war is over)

    Let's not worry about Shmoltzen anymore...let him go. We can cover fullback with Nightingale, Stanley or even our 20's up and comer in Evander Cummins. Looking at the fulbacks off contract after 2012 we may be able to make a play for one of them during the year with some cap money saved for...

    2012 Gains and Losses and possible squad

    Does anybody have any information on a bloke called Jacob Ling that we have supposed to have signed?

    Cuthbertson future?

    I am a little confused about Cuthbertson's delay in announcing his club for 2012. Most clubs start pre season training early November. What could possibly be the reason for the silence. Surely it's got to be announced soon. Is he still holding out for an upgraded contract. We probably have...

    He was and kept a very low profile as they all did

    2012 Gains and Losses and possible squad

    Not sure how accurate it is but one site I looked up suggested these were the Storm players Off Contract: Sione Kite, Todd Lowrie, Sika Manu, Troy Thompson, Atelea Vea, Sisa Waqa, Adam Woolnough. You think if we got Vea out of that group we would have looked at Manu if we could afford him

    "Alone" with .........

    It was my birthday friday September 16th and my wife took me to Brisbane for the night to the Stamford Plaza. First i saw alfie and then teo then Wallace and McCulloch; then the broncos squad at the pool. Racing through my mind was how could I make this work for us. How could I sabotage their...

    Team vs Brisbane

    Why does Bennett insist on naming Reign at 18 and then start him. Of the games I have seen lately when Reign is at starting hooker we explode out of the blocks and then fade when he is replaced. I'd love to see him given the 9 and plenty more minutes, Young at lock and Prior on the bench
