I am not happy he's gone but we can replace him, and he didn't leave to SPITE the fans.
Things don't look great right now ladies and gents, but the next week will bring a smile... just wait and see.

True, the money isn't a positive when we've lost a few of our best but mark my words, this is nothing!! If we don't retain and top up the contracts of Toots, Rhino, Germ, Hodgo, Gaffa, Schif and whoever else if off-contract we'll really be in a world of poo!!
While Muss, Statue & now Joel will hurt us, we can recover. We've got some great talent coming through the ranks, yes unlike the Rortsters we develop players, so don't be to disheartened by what's happened.
And unlike the Rortsters we have some heart!! Look at what our bits-n-pieces team did to the Broncos.

Toots has re-signed for 2 more this year. I think Clintons tied up till 2006?? Theres a full list of off contract players as a sticky. This is definately a negative thing in the short term, I guess it just depends how much time a fan has patience. I can assure everyone I will never ditch the men in green!!!!

Who is in charge of the cap police .... an ex rooster ... its a friggin farce.
Who is a selector and has a big influence on SOO ... a rooster.
Add to that our inept management team and a coach who no one wants to play for and we aint got no friggin chance.
