Mateo is back baby!

[grapeape]

Mateo was cleared by the doc this week to play.

Ando MD the dik thinks hes not ready. doesnt want to upset a winning team i think. thinks hes got the grand final winning combination of lowrie and robson.

mateo + 20kgs and one arm is still better than lowrie.

KK is expected to be cleared next week. and hes match ready. fit little f**ker!

If we cant beat the Sharks without them, we should be looking towards 2010 anyway.

 

[strider]

its a tough decision - maybe the current chemistry IS good and taking out a worker for a skillful player could harm that - we won the bulldogs game on the back of that period in the 2nd half where we defended for a long time and never gave tehm a sniff ... but FMD, Feleti is potentially one of our best players, it'd be hard to leave him out of the team

 

[Twizzle]

source ?

 

[strider]

does every bit of chit-chat need a source? or is a ;-) sufficient?

 

[FUIFUI_MOIMOI]

source ?

"grapeape"

he doesn't post much, but when he does its usually legit.

 

[Twizzle]

any breaking news needs a source

It's impossible to leave him out of the team.

absolute worst case should be a spot on the bench (bye Ben?). That way he can just play a short stint to get him back into the swing of things.

It's got to be between Lowrie and Ben to miss out.

If KK is back next week, then I'd just punt Robson and bring him straight in. Robson has toiled well - but I don't think he brings a whole lot of upside.

its not breaking news - its a bit of info passed on from someone who I believe has shared legit info before

do others state an official source every time they give us a little bit of info they got from somewhere? :?

Yeah - he doesn't need a source!

My guess is that he is his own source - ie, there's no newspaper report or anything (yet?) - when he speaks I listen anyway...

agreed.

I think Mateo will replace Wright on the bench next week.

cool - just hope feleti, his recovering bicep and his fitness level are happy to do the hard defensive work those guys who are likely to be dropped do

I would argue that its not breaking news, we have the same rule for everyone, not just a selected few

not if its just a rumour and winky

why should we allow some and yet delete others?

why should we be inconsistent ?

 

[strider]

ok - seriously - next time stagger shares some info he has without explicitly saying where it came from, I hope you decide to apply the consistency rules and delete it .... cos last week stagger made the statement that those 2 were pretty much ready to go and never said that it had come from them until afterwards and I didn't see any moderation or asking for sources going on there :?

This is probably why grape doesn't post much, these forums are sometimes over policed.

 

[Glenn]

If he is fit, alot to ask to be put straight back in the NRL after being out for so long, also the chemistry with the team seems to be working okay atm.

 

[Twizzle]

he also said where he heard it from

no doubt some slip under the radar though, we can't be everywhere at all times

the word is moderated, and its for a very good reason

you want us to end up like another popular League forum thats gone by the wayside ?

 

[strider]

no he didn't actually - not until much later when I said Ando said they wouldn't be back

whatever - I couldn't be bothered going on about it anymore - I just think there is some selctive over-moderation at times .... I've had my say - i'll zip it now

 

[The Colonel]

Not over selective at all strider....... just some pigs squeal more than others when it happens.
