Anyone think a young player like greg would benefit from playing in super league so he is more prepared for tough international rugby?

The tougher week in week out intensity of the super league would certainly benefit him.

Yes, then greg can learn how RL should be played because he obviously thinks its all about length of the field intercept tries at the moment.

Open ya eyes...he is an attacking winger. Get down to Melbourne and watch him during the season. Defensively he is sound and can hit hard and his ability to offload is a common feature.:roll:

I have to disagree.

The NRL is simply no match for super league in terms of intensity and skill levels.

I think most NRL teams would struggle against top NL2 oposition.

This is why super league teams dominate the hell out of the WCC, but i guess it benefits the NRl teams to play against better oposition so they can learn and grow.

Maybe the gold coast franchise should have been set up in blackpool instead for 2009?

The weather, surroundings and training facilties would have been far better.

WCC challenge is a trial match to us, dont judge it on that and even if you did beat us thats not saying the comp is better its saying the top team is because our competition has more talent across the board. Superleague has 6 very good teams and the other 6 are at premier league level.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day.

Teach a man to fish and you'll have a good week's worth of fun reading RL message boards.

And therefore, I salute WJs mentor(s) in the trolling game. He's blunt and obvious, but that makes it even more fun when people bite.

Does that make Mason genuinely Tongan then, after all his whining about Kidwell?

Tongans dont whinge either, they are polite people, and it is impolite to talk with your mouth full, so they are a pretty quiet mob.....

I dont think Mason was whining about Kidwell, he was merely observing that Kidwell is a tosser. many have made the same observation..

;-)

true story, my ex-mrs was in Willie's year at Tronno (Toronto) High and I have met him and his bro Les on numerous occasions - really nice guys the both of them (playing for the Bulldogs aside...).

I'll let you tell them that, though.

I have an innate dislike of the man. I've only met him once ( in London - I was drunk ), and it's not personal per say, I just can't stand how childish he seems to be. It's ... irritating, for some reason.

You must see a different side to them to most people. Curious who your ex is actually :p
