Corey Norman

[Mickthedragon]

Surely Norman won't get another contract?
If he is re-signed, i'll go as far as saying that Hook and co are making a Mary era decision. It cannot happen if the club has any sense of decency.

I would let Norman go. I would sign Nicko and play him either 5/8 or fullback

If the club are stupid enough to re-sign this lazy dud, then I’ll give it away following them.
It has been hard enough watching them over the past 2.5 years, with the only glimmer of hope seeing the ex Peanut of a coach flicked and the thought of Normans contract expiring. Enough please!

I'm with you. We had to put up with McGregor persisting with some duds out of misguided loyalty and it took its toll on me.

We all prefer winning as fans but I cannot stand for sabotage which is exactly what it will be to resign our weakest link who guzzles the same cap space equivalent to two players better than him.

 

[Gippsy]

So you think it makes sense to play season to season with massive cap space just sitting there not being spent???

Who said that?

Sabotage?
I have never seen so much pessimism about a coach who has just come into the fire trying to douse some flames
You would think we have just signed Norman again for the same $$$$
1. The club still may decide to let him go
2. Like Milford he would have to take a massive pay cut if he did stay
3. He is not our weakest link.. NRL standard depth is in all positions including kickers, goal kickers, hookers you name it

 

[Dragon David]

I'd trade Norman for Drinkwater any day of the week. Drinkwater plays straight, hard and fast, not crooked, soft and slow like Norman.

 

[Gold_Coast Dragon]

I am keeping faith in Hook. I like to think that the timing of the Dufty rejection was strategic and delaying the Norman decision is also strategic. But in the end the right decision will be made.

Let's see how it plays out in regards to his contract. The point is he should have been asked to look around like Dufty, if we are a proud club and the coach has been monitoring our play for the last 3 years. If the coach thinks he is playing great footy then that does say something about his credentials and the style of play he likes.

What role would Norman play on a reduced contract? Look at Milford play, you'd be paying opposition to have him and the same with Norman.

You could put any other prospect in the 6 tonight and I'd be far more confident that player will upset the opposition more than Corey Norman. This has been tried and tested.

If he plays yet another game up to his usual standard , then he had better be shown the door on Monday . The bloke is unreliable in just about every facet of the game , the quicker we get our troops back on deck the better , anyone to replace him .

 

[thebigredv]

Who said that?

You are happy with Hook playing the patient game with the young guys but you are ignoring the fact that we (should) have loads of cap to spend regardless of how they have been loading contracts.

Watch Reece Walsh tonight. He's 18 and killing it. I'd rather pay big $ for somrone like that to throw into the mix than to put all the eggs in the basket of 6 or 7 developing juniors who, like it or not, are yet unproven in first grade. Sorry but the truth is, right now, he makes Ramsey look second rate.

Corey Norman's kicking long kicks are the only thing keeping us in the game we've only had 32% of possession.

That is always the case we never control the ball.

I really feel for the younger brigade who have allegiance to this club. My kids have no interest in it and this simply shows why.

You can’t blame him it’s pathetic

 

[thebigredv]

And THERE'S his extension.

100%. I've seen a few people compliment Norman's long kicking + tactical kicking skills. Must be watching a different game.

He's a total disgrace and fraud.
