I get the impression Corey Norman can switch on and switch off when he needs to. He is apparently one of the best performers at training.

Having watched that training video I'm still surprised by that. Is he objectively one of the best at training, or is his rating being boosted because it's such a contrast to space cadet?

He didn't earn the term 'space cadet' from his teammates for no reason. Ideally you'd want someone in his position to be more mature, more intelligent. More dedicated.

BA did give CN the captaincy role a year or two ago, so while he may not be the smartest player in the game, I say on the footy front he is quite mature / intelligent!!

Listen to the game where he was mic up for, he doesn't come across as a space cadet!!

BTW I note that Corey said that he was guaranteed the No.6 gig when he signed with the Eels.

I thought that players need to earn their position ?

I guess after 2 spoons we were desperate to get someone like him to the club.

Played fullback in that game too. Goes to show it doesn't need to just be the bloke in jersey 7. Everyone knows the game plan. Some players are just better at reminding the others what it is.

We will be hard to beat IF we have a firing Hayne this year.
I just hope Mannah and Alvaro can go to another level. There both going to have to play well above there weight consistently for us to have a chance.

You can't fool us Bartman!
We know that's you!


*please disregard if it isn't actually you...and welcome to LU, the land of merkins.

bart is also sly enough to deliberately f**k up his spelling and grammar to try and deceive merkins. The quoted post is error free except for two instances of the wrong use of 'there'. Very sus. I've got my eye on that merkin.

Although he did bracket Mannah with Alvaro, without any references to him playing reserve grade. It's not definitive evidence though as people are really coming around to the Timmynator.
