Holmes is holding that whole club to ransom

Paul Green has left a lot of mind boggling shit for toddy to sort out.

Can someone tell chinny Tate he's allowed to take a breath when he's speaking?

The problem with Holmes is he is on superstar fullback money and he is not a fullback. Never has been, never will be.

world class winger though.

marsters was a support player. Horrendous decision.

I think Holmes has been ok enough tonight. He’s a big name signing but he’s definitely not the issue with the cowboys.

His support was almost level with him on that play, if I’ve got any criticism it’s that he should have kicked, anything else caught would have been forward.

I'd love to see a tell all book about the 'training methods' used in American sports.

Especially the pharmaceutical assistance.

A dude got a six game suspension for PED use. Supposedly for medication not on the approved list but pretty low compared to what would happen here.

I'm not sure if they do out of competition tests either.
Both of them came back rather bulked up and both struggled with the speed of the game when they first came back. Both would have had some "assistance" in their stints over there.

People (myself included) assumed both to just slot right back in as if they never left. I am surprised with how much they have struggled to be honest.

It goes to show that the speed, athleticism, fitness and skill level of the NRL is world class for any sport.
