Another little birdie told me v Souths.

Talking about duds, I saw a post somewhere the third man flopper has been linked to us for next season, of course Iam referring to Craig Fitsgibbon the flopper.

Probably bull sh.t but fits the bill, old and a back rower and if nothing else would solve the goal kicking problems and of course his old man played for the tigers in the 69 GF

Considering the best thing about Huihahau was his name... he'd wanna have improved since his Souths days.

Would have been good a few years back.. But yeah sounds like a player we'd get..

 

[macnaz]

Aww, Macnaz, you're taking it too seriously. WT are not a professional football club, we are a community organisation, based on charitable and other public relations activities whose fitter members who enjoy training, can play football every now and then in between these other important activites./QUOTE]
Sorry MF , maybe because we are in the top 4 i got confused and thought otherwise lol

 

[madunit]

Lee Bennett is better than Latu.

 

[MacDougall]

I'd rather Finau, Savao, Jackson or Pritchard. No idea how Latu is ahead of them.

Dont tell Sheens that radical idea.

We were the only ausse club that tries to sign him last year so it could be true.

f**k it play him at right wing, he can kick goals and wouldn't be slower then Ryan or Fitzy

 

[slammingsam]

I dont see why you guys dont rate Sam.
He will do well if he gets a chance this week.

Has been tearing it up in NSW Cup from what ive seen and did the same at Souths.

 

[macnaz]

Is he fast ? Can he tackle? Can he take a high ball? If he ticks all them boxes im more than happy. Im also wrapped to give a young new guy a chance..

 

[bubblesunlimited]

The birdie came back.

McKinnon is looking better, but still no certainty.

Brown will be on the bench and not Daniela if McKinnon plays.

 

[Magpies_74]

McKinnon trained today. Good signs.

 

[wade77]

Why would Brown be on the bench if McKinnon plays? Unfortunately Brown is just as useless as Fitzy just slightly bigger and he will lose us a game one day. Do you think any other club chased him other than us? Another recruiting masterstroke from Sheens and McDonnell (there's been plenty)

 

[R2Coupe]

To cover if McKinnon is injured.

Far from being useless, Brown is an extremely good player who was very unlucky not to be awarded a try last game. When does benefit of the doubt ever apply?

 

[Vic Mackey]

Brown has been good, I wasn't excited when we signed him but he is a very sufficient back up player or even starting right winger.

He was touted as the sharks best junior since ET and playe first grade at 17. It's hard for a back to shine in that sh*theap of a team and he needed a change.

Brown is big, strong, fast, a very good ball runner and tremendous defender. However his hands under the high ball have always let him down. Sure he'll never play for Australia but If he is able to fix this then Mitch brown would be a very good first grader.

Are we watching the same player I don't think anyone has ever described Mitchy as an extremely good player. Kinda important to have awareness on the field and good hands if you want to be extremely good. He is the kind of player that unless he has a completely uninhibited run to the line always gets held up or put into touch. Hopefully he is on peanuts otherwise an example of another masterstroke in our recruitment.

 

[The Gambler]

Well he does deserve it.

When Lazarus quit the top squad Latu was bought in as his replacement

What do you mean Lazarus quit the top squad?

 

[Bricey]

Just watching Foxsports news and they are saying that both Champion and Merritt missed training and are unlikely to play....

Had a shot of both of them on the sideline with ice to a knee (champion) and an ankle (merritt)

Good signs, good signs....

 

[macnaz]

Whats happened to Daniela ? Is he injured or was his form last week on the bench for 80 minutes not up to scratch. And if injured, from doing what?

 

[macnaz]

He is the kind of player that unless he has a completely uninhibited run to the line always gets held up or put into touch. .

Or tries to use an infield kick .
