Players smith cut

[Bring it home Knights]

Of the players Brian Smith got rid of last year, is there any that you are now disapointed that we lost?

I'm not to be honest. Reynoldson, woolnough, perry, tighe, carmont, abraham etc were all good decisions IMO. What is happening with kade snowden, he was meant to be the next big thing and is now with cronulla. Is he injured?

The best thing the knights did was get brian smith to try and right all the wrongs that hages developed in the place.

Hmm lets see..

Reynoldson - lol no way, last weeks blunder from the kick off sums it up really
Tanner - Is he still alive?
Abraham - Havent heard from him either
Carmont - lol not on your life.. saw him play last night against Leeds and well this quote from one of the commentators sums it up.. "Out to Carmont..oohh knock on!!"
Tighe - Nope
Woolnough - Nope
Brown - No Way!! All he has shown is he can throw a ball from dummy half...
Snowden - No..

Woolnough would be the only one that comes close to a loss.

But in saying that, I'm not unhappy at all.

 

[keeney]

I wanted to keep Wooly, but we've got him covered. He was the best of the ones we got rid of though.

 

[Johns Magic]

Maybe Tighe.

Even in a sh*t Panthers side he's scored 4 tries already this season.

I still maintain that in a team that played expansive football he would be very dangerous.

Otherwise I'm not upset about anyne we've lost.

 

[aqua_duck]

Tighe never really seemed that interested to me.

Woolnough I think is out for the season?

 

[chinorocks]

Abraham is playing QLD cup for one of the Cowboys feeder sides...Mackay I think. Looks slow even at that level now. Sucks what happened to him he could have been a superstar.

 

[Matt23]

Reynoldson - Hell no
Tanner - Nup
Abraham - No
Carmont - Hell no
Tighe - Nope
Woolnough - Maybe
Brown - No
Snowden - No..

BIHK - knowing your form, all the players mentioned will now go to play for their countries in the WC at the end of the year.

however at this stage - there's not a player that smith cut that i'm missing. as expected - it is showing on the field right across the competition that smith made the correct decisions.

 

[Matt23]

BIHK - knowing your form, all the players mentioned will now

...follow Woolnough's lead and get injured

 

[aqua_duck]

Oh we forgot one player

Spongecake-HELL NO

 

[macavity]

I miss the sponge

oh, and I think we wouldn't be so worried about our #9 for 09 if we still had Brown.

 

[Matt23]

The only one's that miss ol' "spongecakes" Perry are the local bakeries

 

[perverse]

i do kinda miss spongey too.. but not because of what he brought to the field.. more just a sentimental thing. he was quite the cult figure for a number of years.

edit - he was one of the players that last year - despite being told he was not required next year.. chose not to kick up sh*t in the media. he just went about his business. i respected that.

 

[Pika]

Perry and Tighe for me.

 

[Spike]

Reynoldson - can suck a bag full of wet *****
Tanner - I can't believe he played 70 games of first grade
Abraham - poor bastard, no
Carmont - no
Tighe - No
Woolnough - Would still consider him
Brown - Yes
Snowden - I'll wait to see what he does this year. Jury still out
Perry - No
Newton - monkey licking thunder ****
Seage - No
Hinton - meh

 

[roopy]

Wooly would still fit in, but you have to take into account that he had cervical spine injuries similar to the one that ended Joey's career - so is always one head high away from retirement.

I think the thing with Smith is not so much that those players weren't good enough, but that he won't pay overs for a player, and all those guys were on more than they were worth.

The two i think he was wrong about were two that weren't re-signed before he got here because he didn't rate them - Matt Gidley and Anthony Quinn - although you could make a case that they were on too much money.

 

[sneaky_is_here]

When these players got cut last year, alot of people on here said they may go better at another club. I still believe these players needed to change clubs and would not ask for any of them back. They had years to do something and they didn't.

 

[roopy]
