Hages mass culling of EELS?

[parralight]

Brett Plowman was bought from the Broncos to Parra

Oh my...People whinged and cringed when the "untested at NRL First Grade level" Jamie Lyon was sought out as a 5/8. Yet they'd love Hunt there.

My my...

 

[parralight]

Judas did play at 5/8 for a couple of games and bombed.
Hunt has played 5/8 in this years trials and carved.

Dont know how Hunt would go at 5/8 but me thinks he will go better than Judas. Just my opinion.

 

[parralight]

And Im willing to bet whereever Judas goes nexy year - he will start at 5/8 and will only last about 4 games before being moved back to the centres.

Your opinion is cool.

But the bold part is key - he played in trials. Lyon played some 5/8 in the lower grades (I could swear it) and in Wee Waa. And one or two games for St. Helens.

I'm just saying that they're both unproven at First Grade standards as 5/8's, but I believe our general dislike of Lyon is affecting our judgement a tad.

i wouldnt complain if we got Hunt

Yep your right,

Yep your right again - in that I dislike the germ... affecting my judgement - perhaps but I still stand by my word that he will not be the superstar everyone thinks he will be next year.

 

[parralight]

And certainly NOT worth the 425K that I hear Penrith have offered him ....

 

[Eelementary]

We'll have to wait and see, eh!

To be honest, I wouldn't mind Hunt at 5/8.

 

[parralight]

What sort of trainer was judas anyway ? was he a dedicated trainer or more of a laid back rely on his natural abilities trainer ?

 

[Eelementary]

I have no idea! Good question, though!

 

[Redback71]

i rekoon luke burt might do ok at 5/8th
any way we need props not damn backs.
id go for thompson to replace morrison and id go for myles or asotasi both would be great.

Re-signing with Cronulla.

 

[Twizzle]

Hayne at fullback & Hunt at 5/8 = =P~

But have we ever nabbed a Broncos player? ever?

Stu Kelly

 

[Bigfella]

Brett Plowman!

 

[James_Hardie]

We signed a backrower from the Broncos didn't we? McPhail or someone...

 

[The Colonel]

Peter McPhail was at Norths when we signed him. Plowman is the only "backrower" we ever signed from Brisbane.

 

[The Colonel]

Stu Kelly

Stu came from the Gold Coast team around the same time as Ikin started to come through and make Origin.

 

[James_Hardie]

Thats right. What about Marty McKenzie he was a Queenslander wasn't he? Where did he come from?

 

[The Colonel]

Not sure about Marty. Someone else might now. I'd like to think he'd still be living comfortably on the money he made from Super League though. He wasn't a bad footballer but he did almost as well as Steve Edmed when contracts were on offer. :lol:
