It all comes down to the coaching staff next year imo.. A whole off season with a brand new team almost. I rate the Pom in the fact that he can run off a workable backline off a well oiled outfit off a pretty formidable Pack, no excuses imo ..

Just like say the Bronco's for instance, none of those centers were superstars when f**knuckles was injured.

What was the difference?

Not munch difference at all.

The SKD story of success with TC inside him has had a decent airing.

The Rooders story should be getting the same airplay because they and particularly their centres have been shote since TC left as well..

In fact Snoop, if you feel so strongly about the selection of Pom or Besty, chop up your membership and post it to the Club, just like I heard today of an acquaintance who recently did the same on the signing of Carney - What a tool!

Bad Call. I put up with the bad call on Kimmorley for 5 years. I tried my best even after being re-assured by the dead god. Whilst others were very happy, I was very distraught. That is the nature of the beast. His Carney is my Kimmorley. So be it.
What isnt cool, is giving up financially on the club.
So he is a kharnt.

It aint a fact - It's just another over the top opinion that can't be backed up!:crazy:

Thick skinned tell us who has worse centres. Their wont be many memberships left if we have to chop them up based on our centres. I could extend it to the wingers as well.

Snoop is frustrated (like a lot of us) that a glaring weakness is not addressed.

I cant think of a club with worse centres or wingers. Parra were ordinary but signed Tonga.

Jono Wright? The guy who was with the Dogs last year?

No Thanks.

There is a winger wanting a 2nd tier deal and a chance at NRL, his name is Elijah Niko. FFS sign him.

We could even possibly snag Whare on a 2nd tier deal with the opportunity to play firsts.

Inu, Matai, who ever, it needs to be done by Christmas.

4 nations ends this weekend, so players all return to their respective clubs.

So from the 22nd of November, until Christmas break, we have about 1 month to get a player on the books, so they can come back after Christmas, and get stuck into the major part of the pre-season.

I would have to heading into the first trial in Feb, and our latest signing had been training with us for 5 days.

I am prepared to wait very patiently until june 30, if it means getting Inu for the finals & at the right price.

Parra Loko Johno Wright Joel Reddy smith? All good centres.
Parra were not that bad last year.

Like CB4 said,Wright was at the Dogs. Smith = Pom. Loko promising but raw. Reddy = Best.
I disagree and thought they were poor and contributed a lot to Parra's position. Even Loko was criticised by Sterlo for being predictable.

I hope none of them were in the elevator at the Leagues club last week.

Its a fact till you answer my question.

And why should I chop up my membership? Thats just stupid talk.

Im happy to wait and see what Todd can do with our centres, but tell me what happens if they play like they did last season? We have to put up with garbage in 2 vital attacking positions?

Pffft so much for being thick skinned

Peachey would be great in a Dean Young style role IMO. Give you minutes at hooker and lock/backrow, but able to cover the halves as well. Perfect bench utility.

Can't wait to see him in first grade with the likes of Carney, Kelly, Graham, Gardner...so many points! Particularly from broken field play and turnovers.
