Mullen on the Juice

[slotmachine]

See I'd have him below Hagan, Schuster also.

I draw the line at Sean Rudder though!

Hages was getting past it by the time he showed up here. Plus, it's hard to forgive his contract bonanza when he was in charge of recruitment.

lol Mullen was twice the player matty johns was. Matty Johns really was not that great.

Hard to judge the player on his admin skills. He did coach us to a GF win.

No he didn't. He rode in here on Warren ryans coat tails, sat on the sidelines while Joey delivered what we should've had the year before, then went about systematically tearing down all facets of the club until there was nothing but an empty shell left, then he went to Parra and did exactly the same thing.

Hagans time at the club can bear summed up in the immortal words of Bernard Black:
"I'm sorry I ever let you in here, to rob me of my best years before leaving me a burnt out husk."

Sean Rudder = Premiership winning Half

Actually yeah you're right. For some reason my memory had him at 5/8. Maybe as he was goal kicker I had him in the halves.

Sean Rudder = Premiership winning Half

Lol yeah, some people are just in the right place at the right time.

In 2001 the Knights had a very impressive roster maybe Rudder was our handicap to give other teams a chance! P.S Matty Johns would have forgotten more about playing 5/8th than Mullen will ever know, at least he could direct traffic and lead by example under pressure!

 

[Johns Magic]

So are we still paying Mullen out of our salary cap or what ?

 

[PhilGould]

At this point yes. Should be sorted out soon.

 

[Knight76]

Well I expect to see Mullen handing out the freebies at the Western gates all day saturday. Gotta do something to earn his money!

Question -

Where would you rank Mullen in overall 5/8's that have worn the Knights Jersey?

I'd have him second behind Mattew Johns. Mathew johns was pretty decent during the early to mid 90's, then he had an ordinary 1997 season, came good again in 1998 and 1999 but then slowed up and became a plodder in 2000.

Mullen was overall decent for us. Sure he sucked at closing out a match or being consistent apart from a couple of seasons under bennet, however let's not forget the joke of a forward back he very often played behind. He was a terrific defender and was consistently our best half since Johns retired.

Meh why fight it? He's done:

Well the Knights seem happy to continue to pay him a staggering weekly wage whilst he fights it. So putting in as many appeals as possible gets him the most cash possible.

Can't see any other reason to appeal at his age.

 

[Glendale]

Surely we can get a salary cap exemption?

 

[Spot On]

Who was the genuis that gave Mullo 750K a season???

Surely he's not on that much?

Good ole Hages?

 

[Alex28]

So he still gets paid when he is appealing longevity and not guilt?

 

[Knight76]

No press release from the Knights so I'm guessing so.

I think the Knights are looking after him personally, he could have been sacked before this, plenty of players sacked in the past whilst investigation is still ongoing.
