Umm?

God you're right, why oh why did we ever let go of Tanner, the lynch pin of our pack, or how about Brad Tighe, the devastating crown jewel of our backs? OR... Josh Perry enough man for 8 props with less than the impact of 1. Or George Carmont, or Riley Brown, or, or, or.

Idiot.

watch your mouth mate!

tell me what group is better

group A

Andrew Johns Enough said
Daniel Abraham Crap
Adam Woolnough Excellent year
Josh Perry Good enough to be picker up by the team that came second
Kirk Renyoldson Solid benchy
Luke Davico Former Origin
Brad Tighe Rising Star

or

Group B

Ben Cross Il concede on him only
Danny Wicks Premier Leaque
Wes Naiquama Injured all 07
Matt Hilder Got ditched after 1 year
Chris Houston Some First grade
Keith Lulia Premier league

Should i call an ambulance for that burn?

dont bother calling an ambulance, running cold water would do fine, i dont think it is really a burn, more a pissy chinese burn done by a 10 year old child.

Andrew Johns-They went without for all of 2007
Daniel Abraham-crap
Adam Woolnough-Solid First Grader at best
Josh Perry-Overweight and makes Clinton Toopi look like Stephen Hawkins
Kirk Reynoldson-crap
Luke Davico-See Joey
Brad Tighe-Crap


Ben Cross-Much better than any of the props they lost
Danny Wicks-Good for depth
Wes Naiqama-Good winger
Matt Hilder-Decent utility
Chris Houston-Good young gun
Keith Lulia-Good for depth, solid young gun


there ins are 10 times better than there outs.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm almost certain that Statue never played origin. Didn't he always succumb to an untimely injury during the peak periods of his career when he was almost certain to be selected for Origin?

You can say that for every team but.

The fact of the matter is...whoever is healthy for the longest period of time...will make the finals.

A few key injuries here and there to any team, even Melbourne, and they struggle. If Melbourne lost Cooper Cronk and Cameron Smith...they'd be farked.

If Knights lose Mullen again early and then lose someone like Kidley...then they'll be farked.

If Penrith lose Petero and Jennings then we'll be farked.

If Tigers lose Marshall, Head and Farah..then its curtains for them...

Its just a matter of keeping your best players on the park, all season...the 8 teams that do that the best...will make the finals.

Name one team in history that it wouldn't b curtains for if u took out there half, 5/8th and hooker?

Everything you said there is wrong.

RE- Johns and Davico, i know they were out all year, the question was which was the better squad.

Wait till you see him in 08 now he is at a proper club with proper training facilities and proper training coaches. I have already read that he is looking very fit.

With the exception of Johns, I guarantee you that all Knights fans would pick squad 2 any day of the year.

It's more the fact that we've dealt with the mediocrity of squad 1 for years, and are fed up and desperate for a change ;-)

so your clutching at straws with the hope that squad 2 will be an improvement?

When they're replacing players like Carmont, Tighe, Tanner, Reynoldson, and Perry, it won't take much for them to be an improvment.

If you come 9th how do you play a finals match? :lol:

Sorry Tim, but this was a chance to forum cop the forum cop. ;-) :lol:

:? It's pretty obvious if you come 9th you don't make the finals. Perhaps some elaborations were necessary but my point was if they were to make the finals they would win their first match... if they came 9th obviously they wouldn't be there ;-)

I've never heard a club not hype their preseason and how certain players are going. Everyone is always in "much better shape" for the season according to the PR.
