you could be on the money there, I'd say the moment Jamie signs Morris will no longer be in the clubs plans.

I did here a little whisper that Brett Firmon could be the man approached to be the back up half back to Tim Smith next year.

I wouldnt say no.

i must say if pritchard is worth 300k what is hindmarsh worth?
as much as i would like to see pritchard here i would rather spend 300k on topping up hindys contract :)

i think pritchard is overrated ... he does a few good things once in a while and ppl get all excited over him - but they turn a blind eye to his constant handling errors and missed tackles .... I wouldn't hate him in our team - but don't overpay him

firman .... ewwww

WEll Simpson does have a clause in his contract that if he plays 6 Origins in during the current deal he can get out a year early

so if he plays in games 2 & 3 he'll be free to head down the F3 with Hagan

F*ck I hate the roosters.

As I said Poore is the best prop, aside from Bailey at the dragons....

Fingers crossed for Benny Creagh now!!!

yeah that didnt make any sense to me either...

iam sure hes coming back.. smith gone.. means lyon will be back.. hagan has some pull there...

wheres the simpson rumour... surely hes a target if morrison goes...

come on parra.. lets start signing some people!!

roosters can have 17 SOO stars.. and still wont win without freddy there.. there days are numbered..

The Roosters will be lucky to make the 8 this year.

Well we are talking about the Knights here

but if Simpson does play in the final 2 Origin's this year I'd be expecting to hear him linked with Parra especially with Morro all but gone

the only thing about replacing morro with simpson is that morro is a different players!
simpson takes hit ups and makes metres...morro is a hole runner and likes to sniff a try :)

I won't be expecting Smipson to be anywhere other than Newcastle next season regardless of what his clause says.

Well JT mentioned that he played in the Front Row. He was alot closer to the rucks and was steaming onto the ball.

When you see a guy like Morley hanging onto him with his legs wrapped around him and still not able to drag him down, well, I can say no more. Oh, there were 3 others hanging off him too.

Hindy has slowed down and I reckon he could really play in the Front Row ala Webcke.

He would be one of only a few 80 mins props in the game.
