Good news

[j0rd0_ShArKs]

what do you guys think of Jimmy Storer??

 

[Ron Jeremy]

i reckon he's average tbh.

 

[Stagger eel]

what do you guys think of Jimmy Storer??

Jimmy's a legend of a guy and good footballer but if he plays infront of Kingston and De Gois than Sticky has lost the plot big time...

 

[Bigfella]

Good luck to Davis and Storer.

Both are real good types who could certainly be very handy first graders in the future. Just a matter of opportunities and luck going their way.

 

[parra pete]

Saw this on the NRL forum. Very good information on player movements and contract situation.

[Redback71]

2010 will be a big negotiating year for us.

 

[parra pete]

Let's all start worrying about 2010 now to save some time when it finally comes around in two years time.

 

[Maroubra Eel]

But in 2010 it won't be a problem, we'll be worrying about 2013 instead.

i have it on good authority that we have signed nick kouparitssa brother
costas kouparitsas

 

[Gronk]

i have it on good authority that we have signed nick kouparitssa brother
costas kouparitsas

Joined in 2005 and first post today. I guess you got your keyboard fixed then ?

Would that be Nick & Costas, the sons of Mr & Mrs Kouparitas ?

 

[The Colonel]

Actually it would be Nick and Kosta, the sons of Mr & Mrs Kouparitsas. ;-)

And I have heard through a source not even in Sydney that this is apparently correct. Kosta is a prop...... hopefully this young Greek Adonis has a little more agression than the previous fella we had.

 

[Stagger eel]

do we have any info about him?? ie: his playing backround??

 

[stuke]

Joined in 2005 and first post today. I guess you got your keyboard fixed then ?

going off his username he has probably been a little busy, and reaching out to the fans through the Internet might be one of his steps for rehabilatition. ;-)

 

[The Colonel]

Kosta has follwed his brother from Canberra to the Tigers where he was at Wests for his time there and then followed his brother to the Bulldogs at the start of last season. Plays prop and second row. I think he had actually started training with the Tigers first grade side before joining the Bulldogs last year.

He is around about 20 or 21.

Has also played some international games for Greece.

 

[timsmith]

take it as fact
and he is bigger and better than nick
