Even in the games V parra, all he does is finish tries... not the only thign youd want a star recruit to be doing.

Its exactly what an opposition supporter would want. You're not a closet Manly fan are you?

That was a beat up mate. Would you like me to show you a photo where he was having beers with the Manly players at the leagues club last year after a game?

BTW, the information was from a lady who knows his grandmother. Far more reliable than the intelligent being that told you of this 'pig' rubbish.

You can continue all you like about Lyon, I completley understand that it would cause problems. I just question how many of you actually consider why a man like Lyon would walk out with the world of RL at his feet. Its not as clear cut as him just being a wanker or I would be agreeing that it was a dog act.

my point was until the source is named, its hearsay... i could tell you Judas himself told me about his pig fetish, its be as reliable as your source.

show me those photos please :)

btw this thread isnt a Lyon hating thread from a parra point of view. Its just a WHAT A USELESS merkin thread, from the point of view of an objective league fan who went to MNF

yeah, that must be true... because i have a "reliable source" :roll:

tbh, Lyon was never married and also, Lyon f**ked us around this year when he was coming back "i want to make it up to parra fans"


His source is pretty accurate.

I heard the same thing except my source was his neighbour at the time and I heard it before it was announced in the media he was doing the runner.

lol i love how an objective observation can be turned against me just coz im a parra fan. Others who saw MNF have made the same observation. He is not worth 500K, its about 5 times too much for a good-average goalkicker

Well, a reliable source told me that he agreed to a figure to come back to the Eels, so...

it's all hearsay, and considering that Brian Smith has been more than accomodating to other people that have had family tragedies I seriously doubt Jamie's words... and even less of his grandmother LOL.

And, I'm sure this will be taken entirely the wrong way by many people, but - if true - do you actually know how often women miscarriage on their first pregnancy? It's a very high rate, one in four or five I think. I personally know three women who have miscarried in the last couple of years, including my sister. Did any of their boyfriends miss work? No.

I thought this was one of the worst kept secrets in League?

How can people not know this in 2007?

Thats not even what this threads about ffs, can you tell me... honestly, that Lyon is playing to his worth?

But it is the reason you parra lot bringing him up.

Fair enough, I'll admit that he isn't worth the 1/2 Mill he's earning. There you have it. Problem solved. That should be the last of the Messiah threads.

Lyon has been playing pretty good for the last 4 or 5 weeks, but ill give it to you, i didn't know he played on Monday.
Not many players can say they are consistent in every game.

well unfortunately one person's opinion does not represent an entire fanbase's. Also your refusal to acknowledge the 'dog act', would mean that many other so called 'messiah threads' will sprout up.

is 'pretty good' over 4-5 weeks (which is an exaggeration imo) good enough for 500K a year? thats my question. Look at others who are possibly earning similar amounts.... Darren Lockyer, even when down on form his involvement is high (and they both play the same position, on paper anyway)

No way should 4-5 games a year earn you 500k. Are you jealous?
Manly obviously dont mind paying him that much, so i dont understand why you are so concerned. It happens in football - some players get more then they should, look at Hindmarsh - he's is a shadow of the player he was 2 years ago, but im sure he is still earning a nice wad.

While I believe what I have been told of the situtation I will reserve my judgement on his actions.

As far as I'm concered the 'dog act' was by your club but this can't be 100% proven which is why I don't make 1000 threads on it every day.

and hes making record tackle counts (69 against the Storm, all time highest by anyone), so i believe he's worth it. How does a question about a player's worth indicate my jealousy? Are Manly "obviously" happy with Lyon? What makes you say this? Also... many other threads ahve sprouted up over other overpaid hacks, yet when a Lyon thread comes up why does everyone resort to claiming bias against the initial poster instead of judging the situation on its merits?

this is my first Judas thread, so where does the '1000' figure come into it? and as my first Judas thread, it isnt even about his 'dog act'

Hey I will agree with you on his price tag. Maybe if he was playing as well as he did for you guys than he may be worth the price... just. Thats probably what the club thought though. He picked up the man of steel award for best UK player so maybe he was still going alright.

Even so it hasn't turned out that way. He's having a 'solid' season, nothing fantastic but to complain while your club is sitting second would be silly on our behalf. We expect more but our continual moaning wouldn't change a thing.

As for the 1000 threads, I'll give you as much to say you haven't continually brought the issue up. Its just strange that their are a number of under-performing, overpaid players probably more so that Lyon but you Parra fans seem to single out the one bloke. Coincidence? I think not.

There is NOONE in the league as overpaid, and underperfoming as Lyon. Thats the reason why i have chosen to expose this issue rather than some other player. I'm glad that you agreed on the price tag, because thats what this thread was about. He was doing OK, but now he isnt and is therefore the worst buy this 2007 season IMO. However on the point of 'solid' season, i have to disagree. He is about as solid and as useful as Daniel Wagon, yet we pay the bloke peanuts and he is lucky to get a call up - Lyon is paid 500K and is picked no matter what.
