Laurie's shot at Teflon

[gallagher]

Well i think i can comment on things that can be publicy seen, such as Lui being a crap defender in both grades and also Sheens making ridiculous selections such as Moltzen ahead of Gallant and Morris as a half etc . As for training techniques i agree i know nothing about but i havnt made any comments in regards to that.

You called Lui lazy, did you get that from a couple of games? Gee, you have tough criteria on a rookie in his first few games.

All the stufff above you wrote is a all matter of opinion, there no facts in there. Laurie missing training is factual though. He also seeked a release from a contract (like Gallant). Thats says a bit about the guy right there.

'oh it too hard here, I need to be nurtured. maybe a club with no expectations from its players will sign me'.


Anyway, he's gone. I'm sick of talkiing about him.

10000 times 0 is still 0. For the record, I don't rate Lui one bit. I don't rate Laurie either. Just watching him on the field, he looked like he had no idea in his early games, and as he played more games, he didn't seem to get any better in that department. Lawrence, who had his defence issues, worked hard on them, and as he played more and more games, you saw him improve. I can't say the same thing about Laurie.

Agree with all that:
10000 times 0 is still 0.
Lui is so slow..seriously how can he be under 20?
I would hate to be defending alongside Laurie.....Jarrod Sammut and Laurie in the same defensive line...what a dream.
Lawrence is a bloody Champion.

I cant wait to see him against the Tigers, he'll be all tough and mouth off and blow hard for 10 minutes then you will see the likes of Lawrence, Marshall and Ellis go straight through him as he struggles to keep up with Petro in the line. All the talent in the world and he wont go nowhere. The test of a player is not when they are playing first grade its when they get dropped or get asked to go back to Ressies or VB and come back hungrier, he failed miserably and will lose more games through poor defensive reads and dumb penalties for his team than he will win.

Lets not forget, a big negative factor for Laurie, he was hardly a junior you could persevere with and hopefully wait til they get the crap out of their system, he came into grade at 25 and will be 27 next year. By the time he learns and people persevere with him, itll be time to retire. If he gets a decent injury, forget it, he's finished.
