YOUR DAD IS RIGHT MATE....Shadow...
Brad Thorn was a dual International i.e Rugby for The All Blacks as well as Kangaroocoos.. That guy was a great great player.Wayne Bennett won a grand final in 2006, by the time Benetts broncos ran out for 2008 they'd lost, Tate, Webcke, Berrigan, Thorn, Carlaw, Mcguire, Civoniceva. That's 7 gone in 1 year quicker than it took us.
Ohh more egg for shadope
Where did you find this picture of Shadow? I'm glad I can finally put a face to the name.
Fact is this: The Crisps - management and players in particular - thought Mission Accomplished. Title delivered. Hence motivation gradually started to wane. This is what happens. Look at The Dallas Mavericks they flogged and I mean FLOGGED Le Hunch James his STACKED TEAM The Heat 4-1 in The NBA in 2011 after a long long wait for another Title Belt. Soon after the team quickly evaporated and Mark Cuban [The GM and Owner] let half the team depart. Result: They are no longer a major factor and merely just making the playoffs is a thrill. But they are still quite competitive. These things happen and Ben Te'o wanted to leave there was no way he wanted to stay in Australia after what Danny said about him on 9-TV. Plus Ben's mother is British and he always wants to take on new challenges such as playing Rugby for Britain. He is very happy doing that he has a new missus and he will probably raise a family there. Good for him. Tuqiri was done finito. Auvaa stuffed up with immaturity dodging drug tests etc. His real desire in life is to be a he man body builder not footballer. So he has motivation concerns, agree/d'accord?? Luke his body was/is knackered and could not take any more constant pounding and the continual darts around The Ruck as Maguire demands. What has he done for the Malaka Warriors??? I cannot hear you. McQueen is just a decent player and a good club guy. Really is McQueen much better than Tyrell Clark or Turner??? The only player The Crisps realistically could and should have retained was the obvious one: D. Walker. Maguire should have fought long and hard to retain Walker. He evidently did not from what I understand and if he did he failed to win the battle. You must also bring Maguire into any post-14 analysis: not only his often poor playing tactics amidst changing rules but also his selection faux pas such as picking Talakai as a starting centre for 7 games in which The Crisps went 1-6. That bone headed stubborn decision making helped set up a failed season.Souths let ben teo, apisai koroisau, isaac luke, chris mcqueen, kirisome auvaa and lote tuquiri and dylan walker go after our 2014 grand final win....even lote tuquiri is better than burns or jennings or talakai and nielsen on the wing .! We let 7 grand final players leave our club after our history making win what the HELL is going on its insane i can tell you now who ever wins the 2017 grand final will not let 7 of their best players go elsewhere. Does anyone for one moment think that if the storm won in 2017 could you ever see bellamy letting go of 7 grand final winning players after the game. NO WAY IT SEEMS THAT SOUTHS WERE JUST PLAIN DUMB PURE AND SIMPLE!!!!...P.S. Bellamy or bennett would never dismantle their teams of 7 grand final winning players so why did souths let this occur such bad management?? I am bleeding red and green blood throughout my entire body and let me tell you rusty my blood is boiling like volcanic ash through my heart with such great sadness... Shadow...
