Billy Burns is going to find it hard to make it back into our starting 17 after yesterday’s performance

Charlie Staines putting his own poster back up was hilarious.

Reminds me of Jarrod Sammut. One time I was in his vicinity and saw him get his phone out. The background on his phone was a picture of himself.

Doesn’t surprise me about Sammut. I remember a home game against Parra back in 2008. We lost the match and I remember after game, behind the grandstand, when he came out all dressed looking around for fans to sign autographs for. Problem was that he was the ONLY player walking around. The rest of the team came out TOGETHER about 10 minutes later........

We play the Warriors in round 14. My understanding is that Jack Hetherington won't be allowed to play.

I am sure that will be the case.

I had a thought earlier. If teams lose two backs early in the game they are at a distinct disadvantage why not increase the interchange to 5 or 6 players BUT only allow 4 of those players to be used, This would allow much more flexibility . I would not like to see a team lose a grand final because they lost two outside backs early in the game.

Reading the last tidbit, I’ve worked out that The Mole is none other than @The Silverdale Phantom!!

But back to the Hetherington tidbit, $400k?!?

As for The Mole, the bloke should probably hand back his pay cheque this week. Absolute dribble.

Good article, but this was, by far, the best part.

I am a big fan of Hetherington but surely $400k is a typo?

Fox Sports listed the same last week. The Weekender has board members as sources so I believe them in such cases like this

Lol the mole. He is about as relevant as see-through toilet paper.

 

[franklin2323]

Roosters with atleast 7 top 17 players out won. That is why they are the team to beat this year

And we already have.

Might sound crazy, but I wouldn’t have minded too much if we played them again during the regular season.

Guess we’ll just have to wait until the finals

Playing them in Round 1 (when they admitted to resting a few players) and playing them week one in the finals are different things

I agree. Having an easier run home is good for getting confidence up and potentially resting players but doesn't allow Crichton and Naden to test themselves against quality before the finals

They are a well drilled side. You can not take away the performance of the Panthers in that game.

The club is probably putting it out there so us / fans aren't so disappointed when we offload him.

There has to be some collateral with all the re-signings.

Journos tend to add 50%. They think it's better to be over by a mile than under by $1.
