Colin Best

[sydneysharkbrisbane68]

No lets leave Colin Best where he is, if we are after a good signing try Shane Perry from Redcliffe, the Broncs wanted him but did not join as it meant had to play for Toowoomba while waiting in the wings, he is a classy 5/8, a position we need fixed quickly

Mellor hasn't been that great for Castleford. And the British fans dislike McKenna because he's not a flashy player.

I'd take consistent and tough compared to the rubbish our centres have been dishing up this season

 

[SirShire]

How old is McKenna BTW?

 

[Booyah]

How old is McKenna BTW?

I think he's 29 this year.

 

[SirShire]

Hmmm that'd be great to see him back in Sharks colours

"Chris McKenna's got two good years of first grade in him and they've offered him twice as much as we can afford to offer him. We've got a big problem and we've got it within our power to fix it. We need to sit down and work out what is the best for our game to go forward." - Anderson in 2002.

His date of birth is 29-10-1974 btw. I'd still have him as a backrower what a man!

Hey guys

McKenna is getting absolutely bagged over here each week, people literally cannot believe he ever got a test jumper #-o

Mellor is even worse- he is tossing it off at Cas each and every week, well thats when he isnt injured. I follow the sharkies but im afraid to say that im surprised you rate these 2 so highly- they are garbage in a fairly poor comp.

Besty on the other hand is going absolutely fantastically at Hull, he is one of the fastest going and although he is prone to the odd error, he will always bounce back as he is a top finisher. You would be surprised at how mcuh he has progressed

As much as I dont want him to go, the better he does at Hull, the more likely it is that he will get an offer from an NRL club. If he does, I hope its the sharks!

You have to remember some people live in the past and really dont have any idea.

Mellor. Played 2 good games, took a dive with some sore ribs, cost us a GF place.=choker

Hymie. I must say Hymie did have a few good seasons, problem was that was with the Moroons. Fairly solid in defence , overated runner with the ball.

:roll:

 

[blacktip-reefy]

FatShark, just wondering if you rate any non Anderson players?
I don't think there is a Shark playing or retired that you haven't bagged out & described as pathetic.
Gotta wonder why you even post here if you think the likes of Millers & ET's are overated & pathetic.

You obviously have no idea as you bag out Beattie too. So in your books he took a dive last weekend & cost us the game?
Just like Mellors punctured lung that hospitalised him.

 

[Special K]

Don't talk about Mellors punctured lung

 

[Alan Shore]

McKenna gets bagged by the English fans but they're all for excitement value. They don't seem to respect all the little things which McKenna does right 100% of the time. And his biggest asset is his defence, anyway.

 

[Macca]

He was a tackling machine. If we could get him back I would. I'd take Mellor back too. Let's just turn back time to 2001 and pretend nothing ever happened and give John Lang an offer he can't refuse.

 

[cheese]

maybe we could get 'zimmer frame inc' as a sleave sponsor too

 

[imasharkie]

JL just sighned a new contract for 2 years with the panthers

 

[Macca]

He doesn't think it will happen though

 

[Alan Shore]

Yeah, let's fork out $500,000 for JL and $350,000+ for M.Rogers! Plus another $1.2 million for Anderson! Now, I wonder if we'll still exist after that? :x

 

[Macca]

Life would still be Good.

I used to work with Colin Bests mum at around the time he was sacked by Ando. She said that all he wanted to do in his life was play for the sharkies, and he was ABSOLUTELY DEVASTATED when he was sacked (so was she for that matter). And, if given the chance hed come back in a heartbeat as long as Ando wasnt at the helm.

Just for the record he was "sacked" in the true sense of the word, and the only reason was that "he didnt fit into the culture that Chris was trying to build". Translation: You are not one of my favourites- check ya later.
