Klemmer

[DiegoNT]

Lol, you really don't want Cook do you?

I want useful players.
If bulldogs are umming and arring about whether to let klemmer go, and they want cook, then if we can use that to our advantage then we should go for it

At least klemmer doesn't panic when he goes to the line

That's not a look of panic it's a look of bewilderment wondering why no one is in support?

The day our team runs off a dummy half scoot lol... cook is always taking on the line but to do it effectively you usually need people running off of you. Cronulla do it very well...

correct......Shadow...

SMH suggesting that Klemmer has asked for a release from his contract.

Dogs deny Klemmer exit

CANTERBURY have denied a report suggesting representative forward David Klemmer has requested a release from the final three years of his contract.

No thanks

 

[Rsag85]

Your club is in a mess atm, the dogs are trying to get Damien Cook back too.

No there not

 

[Rabbits20]

Oi Shadow anyone saying Cook has to go has lost their marbles imo.......

But but but but it's all Cook's fault they say............

Too much hatred and bias against Cook on here.

All Souths members I know in general really like Cook. They all pretty much think he needs to be put on earlier and not when the games over.

 

[DiegoNT]

Cook has been put in games earlier. He had a starting role for over a month and he wasn't effective.
No one is saying it's cooks fault. But having a player you can get some use out of would surely be benificial for the team. At the moment we are using cook in the last 10 minutes as a lock who is a weak defender who refuses to take hit ups.

 

[foreverinourshadow]

cook is a gun.....Shadow...

 

[southsport]

Dogs are in a real mess, supporters calling for Hasler's head!!!

 

[Exsilium]

Cook had quite literally seven (7!!!) good games for the bulldogs and you signed him on the back of that.

Simply put. He's not an eighty minute hooker. He's a utility and/or bench player at best.

Cook could be great but under a different coach and in a better side.

Love SS and its fans but lets just be a little realistic.

So does that mean you would be willing to fork out the 900k per year Farah is on, next year ? Even if Farah takes a pay cut of 300k, that's still double what the slow, over-rated clod is really worth. I bet Cook is only on 200k. For sheer value-for-money, I'd personally take Cook over Farah any day. Plus, he's got quite a few more years in him than Farah, who has 2 max. Farah should go to England if he wants the 900k, and I bet he will.

We should be out looking for a 1st grade standard hooker. Since 2013 we've used 6 hookers, Luke, Peats, Korisau, Mcinnes, Farah and Cook. Sonehow we've managed to let the best 4 go and end up with the bottom 2. Farah is currently out playing cook. We've f**ked up the situation badly.

He had closer to 3 good games for the bulldogs.

Yea, it's a shame we couldn't keep Koroisau, I rate him highly.

Yeah and that's why you guys should have patience with Cook. Give him more time out there and he may end up like Peats or Korisau or McInnis is now. You've got to have patience with the young kids, it takes a fair while to get used to the rigors of first grade. I believe your club is excellent at spotting the talent, but no good at being patient with them long enough to keep them there. Then in 2 years, they blossom at another club.

Man I would cut off my left nut to get Peats at my club. His service is wonderfully fast. It reminds me of when Craig Wing played hooker, no one gave service that fast ever before or since, but Peats is pretty close now. I see a fair bit of Peats in Cook right now, his service speed is very good. He just needs to learn a bit more and in a year or two i reckon he'll be right up there. Anyhoo, I hope your club makes the right decision this time. Good luck man.

I think cook's service out of dummy half is much better than farah's I also think that he doesn't have much match fitness because he's been playing utility for most of the season! Our halves I think walker have complained about Farah not listening to them.
