Lol. That's all you got? lol lol lol

So you are saying that if we moved Hunt to hooker and had Robson coming off the bench to replace him, that we would have to score 40 points a game to win? lol
I think we would have to score 12 points per game more than we do currently with McInnes at hooker, if hunt went there, so around 30 points a game......

No thanks mate.

I think Norman is a better game manager halfback than any of the ones you mentioned. The ones you mentioned all have better running games than Norman, but I think they are all better suited to 5/8.
I was comparing to Cleary as you were in the same sentence. And Norman also is a 5/8th. DCE & Johnson definite better 7's at this stage

happy xmas everybody my wish is for supercoach to get some plan b,s and c,s next season, interesting they say our 2 fastest players are the new wingers theres hope yet ......
I remember seeing Mikhaileile Gorbachev Radalawa score a try for the mounties against us early last season.....he took off like greased lightninig.....I wonder if this was the time basil started the ball rolling to get him here, because the Raider fu€#s sent him out to play in the bush somewhere in the back blocks of the a.c.t for most of last season

I miss understood your previous post. Cleary still isn't there, but I see an out and out quality halfback in Cleary, who would compliment the likes of Johnson, and Munster perfectly.

I think Norman is a halfback. I was convinced of that, when I saw him playing halfback for Parra, with Gutherson 5/8. That is when I thought he was one of the best halfbacks in the game. Norman will go well at 5/8 with Hunt halfback, because Norman will still be able to take on the dominate playmaker role, but I like to have the halfback as the dominate playmaker, with a 5/8 who is a playmaker too, but who has more of a running game.

I heard that Norman and Moses weren't getting on well and that it had something to do with both of them wanting to be the dominate playmaker. I think Arthur should have left Norman in the 7 jersey and played Moses in the 6.

I think Norman is a much better game manager than either DCE or Johnson. I think Johnson is 5/8 and I have wondered if Cherry is really more suited to 5/8. I think Norman and Johnson would make a perfect pair of halves, but I would have Norman in the 7 and Johnson in the 6.

Phew..got through all that..still spinning ..think I get it..My translation Frank.
Norman will be good for us and most halves are in the wrong jumper :p. You also forgot to mention Keary who I think is better than Cleary except goal kicking.

Cleary is clearly overrated in regards to the media attention for me but as said before great competitor and mayube will be one of the best yet. Lets see how he goes firstly playing for DAD and Uncle Phil again in the next couple of years.
Norman...hmmm. Mary may not be able to work out putting our best and highest paid 3 pegs into 17 holes.

Is it true that Corey has helped Parramatta to secure two wooden spoon titles? Those are the sort of credentials that fill some with hope apparently. In Corey we trust.

I"m a Parra supporter (for over fifty years) but I reckon that's hillarious.
By the way, Norman will do very well with a solid forward pack in front of him and a steady halves partner in Ben Hunt. At Parra he's been hampered by a lousy pack and a succession of unreliable half backs. I reckon the next three years will see the best of Corey Norman.

Totally agree Ivor , for the very reasons that you have suggested - big strong mobile forward pack and a quality half ( whom shall improve immensely in 2019 ) .
The Dragons fans will have a player with that X-factor that will be able to win them a tight game .

Recall Ivor Lingard from the 60’s , a great half for the Eels .

Lousy pack that rolled us 34 to nil
