Wasn't really aiming it at you as I understand you wouldn't be able to answer.

But it is a serious question and what does BA do with Evans.

No dramas. I'd say it was because we were deciding who would round out the development spots, and if any would be in the top 30.

If he's found guilty of racially abusing a player, openly apologise to the player in the media and then release him. How can he be trusted to work with teammates of the same ethnicity if he's abusing the opposition?

Would the club be able to release him without having to pay him out? I hope so!

SBW wanted to go to Onion again... They got him to come across win premiership and he left did his job.

Same as Maloney did they really want to keep him? It seems he doesn't like to stick around past his used by date at clubs..
So you agree it’s not all about what the Roosters want?

Great read my question is if we a fan can see this why is it not being addressed?

Do we not have the coaching staff in place to assist with halves & hookers???
Mahoney and Salmon look fine in reserve grade when they’re playing against an evenly matched opposition. On the weekend they had over a dozen team mates on part time contracts whereas the Warriors side was packed with top 30 players.

I would guess the club wouldn't have a hope in hell of doing that. But if they did and eventually settled out of court then everything would be sweet.

Sack Evans without so much as a warning? Not a chance in hell. Regardless, what a massive admission it would be that the guy is no good and is never going to be any good. Would make those responsible for his signing look like absolute idiots. Id guess we would keep him to save face rather than admit we got it wrong.

Hahaha, this site is so toxic, he attacked the line once out of the whole game in the early stages and didn’t try it again once.
Third most metres out of a reserve grade side for a hooker and you wanna knock the kid? How about you look at the forwards getting absolutely no go forward so the 9/7/6 can do there jobs. Granted the number 7 cost them about 3 tries but the kid made 65 tackles in a warriors reserve grade team STACKED with Nrl players, yes he fell of a few, so does every other hooker in the comp and NRL. Suck it up boiz cause he will be the next hooker for parramatta.

Without any disrespect, Bit hard not to rack up tackles with the lack of possession we had and the amount of ball the opposition had.
Yeah his stats might add up but i watched the game very closely. He fell of tackles and other attempts were worst than Cartright from the titans. There were times it looked like he was playing touch footy and lack of effort with the try conceded he could of done better.
His service wasnt great, Crisp service. Dont get me wrong at times it was good. But lacks consistancey, Considering he plays this position week in week out it needs to be better.
For mine his selfish also. He runs to often and doesnt play structure well. He gets white linefever.

Again this is only my opinion. But for mine i would want a more consistant hooker playing Nrl.
Mahoney offers nothing different to King or Pritchard.

I would also say he might have been one of the better players this week for Wenty but that wouldnt be hard with the performances yesterday.
Kaufusi can hold his head high as i thought he was good. Scored a great try showing some strength.

As for Schneider he is way off anything yet. Yes he shows promise but we wont know till he gets his opportunity at Nsw cup level to see if he progresses to Nrl. Which is still a few years off yet being only 18yo.
As for Mahoney Wnty need better players around him, Might be a different story if your forwards are laying a good platform for him.
Id like to see Mahoney work more on his service and stick to structure more. Still young 20years old So still has time to put a polish on his skills and game play..
Im not knocking his efforts, As they have been outstanding. He never gives up and doesnt stop trying. Great attitude to have.

Again only my opinion. Cheers
just don’t think you like the kid haha, did he steal a family members spot or something mate? Third week in a row you’ve bagged him hard.

I say what i see.
Its the same with Salmon also. But i dont see you jumping to Salmon defence. Maybe iv hit a nerve and Mahoney is a good friend or family member. If you dont like opinions maybe jump on another forum buddy where you wont get offended.
Nothing personal here from me champ. I wasnt the one quoting he wont make the Nrl. Maybe have a read of the comments & my reply. Its a forum for people to talk and point out likes and dislikes of a player. Maybe im not the one related "You are as you seem to be taking this personal. If you dont like people's opinions maybe go read other forums.
As for your comment he will be the next Parramatta hooker, That maybe so. Good luck to the kid. Iv only pointed out things in his game he needs to work on. Yet in other paragraphs im the one giving praise to him and i was the one who mentioned put some better players around him and forwards who can lay a platform.
So maybe dont take things personal and actually have a read of what i said.!

Releasing a player because they racially vilified an opposition player is not admitting it was a poor recruitment decision, it shows that the club doesn't stand for racism.

Salmon hasn’t done much wrong beside from a few bad 5th tackles options I really like what he has been doing in reserve grade considering he can still play two years of Flegg.
Nar, wouldn’t know the kid from a bar of soap, but he is one of the more talented juniors we have had in a while and all you do if put him down, just my opinion mate.
