Benji Marshall ?

[R&WTILLIDIE]

I think we are being used.
'Money or Mates'.
He'll choose the Sharks, and show everyone what a good guy he is and how it's not all about the money.
The media PR campaign is in full swing, and we are caught in the middle.

For the record, I hope I'm wrong.
I reckon he would be a good signing for us.

Exactly...He's using us to raise his worth at Cronulla so he can join his Tigers mates.

 

[Mattc]

Not just raise his worth.
It'll make in seem 'nicer' when he 'chooses' to play with his mates.
"Enjoy his footy", "New challenge", we can all write the quotes already.
It's about brand Benji.
What a 'good bloke' he will look.

Again, I hope I am wrong, but this whole thing seems orchestrated.

 

[ggould]

Would Benji be a good signing absolutely!!! We need to score pts given that we leak so many!!! Also would put plenty of bums on seats we need the revenue big time!! But it won't happen when was the last time we won a tug o war over a player never!!! So Benji will go to Cronulla as expected!!!!! I just wonder will it put Carney nose out of joint??? Not to mention the pest is signing there as well wonder how they can afford Fifita Marshell and Ennis???????

 

[macnaz]

If he was serious about resurrecting his career he would pick Storm or Saints before rejoining the boys club at the Sharks. It always seems to be what is easiest for Benji not what is right. Hope he joins the Drags as he will offer plenty on and off the field and at least have a decent size fan base to entertain.

Thanks again Peter Doust - You're so good at what you do
look what you've gone and done.
A little further, a little more - again you've tarnished St. George

And if this is true If that imposter does pull on a Dragons jersey,
I will relinquish my membership I will NOT cheer for that fake no matter
what he does because I will NOT be at an further games -

YOU can have my word.

what are you 14, i don't like benji that much either, but i wouldn't give up membership, or going to games over one player, seems futile to me, plenty of wonderful players who pull on the red v every week, no matter what you think of guys like rein, they go out there every week, and put their bodies on the line, i think most saints fans appreciate whatt they do.

 

[Drain the Dragon]

If it happens I'm looking at it in a similar vein to when we signed Phil Blake back in the early 90s.

Wasn't happy at the time but he turned out to be a good buy and added some much needed spark.

 

[jenninga]

Benji Marshall will lift the club and give us an unbelievable confidence in attack. Watch Duges, Widdup and even the forwards like Frizell and Merrin lift!

I can't believe the mob on this site do not want Marshall at the club... If he signs I'm sure he"ll fast become the forums favourite..

Pray he signs!!

Was sceptical at first but must admit I'd be disappointed if he signed for the scum.
Would give the team a massive boost.

 

[Ronnie Dobbs]

If he helps us win games I couldnt care less about the past or his personality.

Agree, well said.

Hmm... interesting comparison, and I kinda agree to an extent. Blake didn't quite have the profile or paycheck of Benji though, and was joining a very good team - a team that had just made a grand final and were led by an excellent coach. Playing style wise the similarities are there, though. And I loved Phil Blake!

Hmmm,Benji or Jersey no.14 at our club.:lol:

This.

 

[Inspector Gadget]

Apparently 9am Triple M news have just said he has signed with us. Media are in a fenzy at the moment, so something is about to happen today or next week FMD.

 

[Jersey No 14]

Every week we go to the games and cheer for our team
Every week the same result occurs - we need valuable forward
Ones with Mongrel It is clear - It has been clear for a season and a third.
Doust isn't stupid he must see this and what does he do - spend the little money we have on a imposter who clearly is a flash in the pan a few years ago - who also would not be resigned by his former beloved club.
The sharks need him more than us - As a league lover he would be a good fit and with all intensive purposes he was going there.
Then Doust comes along throws a mountain of cash at him then all of a sudden his playing for us.
He and you guys will fit well together - As the Ice T song goes ---
Hey home boy "You just played yourself"

Suck it boys!!!!
