LMAO and wouldn't that constitute the ol' "jobs for the boys" conspiracy you've been so vocal about?

Haha stick to the script, player.

Hey pea brain, jobs for the boys can be beneficial when merit based (which is rarely the case with or mob).

In other words, you will pick and choose whether something is beneficial or not depending on whether you feel it strengthens or weakens your argument.

Who'd have thunk it!?

It seems Robbie Farah is starting to lose the PR campaign. Lots of Tigers supporters and the media are starting to say something to end of "You have been harshly done by but it's time to move on regardless."

If he doesn't want to come, that's that but all he has said is that he doesn't want to leave Sydney. If the club management and coaching staff simply hasn't made an effort to get him, they should all be arrested!!!!

If the Grubs or Roosters or Broncos had some problems with their hooker, they would get Robbie Farah and wouldn't lose anyone but the hooker he was to replace. Whether a legitimate contract, brown paper bags, third-party agreements, Jason Taylor disappeared or whatever. They need to get it done!

Mitch Rein is a good player but he can't kick, can't play 80min and his passing out of dummy half is terrible. It's time for the club to move in a different direction.

A few weeks ago, Millward will coach the Cutters allowing more control over the squad.

Logan was on the nose with his selections and training methods thats way several players asked for releases mid season and others didn't want to play under him.

Well he is still a chance of sticking around as no other club has offered him a gig due to his serious knee injuries.

I'd say he will either sign with the Cutters or drop back and play with the Corrimal Cougars.

Problem is that we have now missed the exchange deal with Rein. Who will be Manly's hooker?

Could it be Farrah or do they want Rein - over the years he has formed a great combination with Green?

They got Korisau and Parcell. 2 very good young hooking options.

Two of my favourite players. Green and Rein.

Rein isn't that bad. If he could consistently pass well out of dummy half he would be in the top 5 hookers I believe. Farah, Smith and Ennis are the only ones who play 80min at present, aren't they? The new interchange rules will probably see more come through. A perfect opportunity to get Farah for 3 years and bring through another young guy ready to take over in 3 or 4 years.

And you don't think a hooker that plays 80 min and the current SOO hooker 2nd best hooker in the world is not needed at our club?

Having trouble understanding the thinking process some people have around Farrah.
He would struggle to be in the top 4 in Australia as 3 Qld hookers all rate better than Farrah.
The same can be said re halfbacks the top 3 are all Qld's and that's why they have a mortgage on the SOO.
If the Qld's not picked for SOO were able to be picked for NSW no doubt in my mind Friend would get the nod for the hooker and Pearce would not even be on the radar.
In fact under that selection system how many NSW players would actually get picked?
We need to wake up as a club and stop buying hacks and understand that yesteryears good player is not the player of the future.

Interesting and I tend to agree.
What's your Australia 1 vs Australia 2 lineup?
