[Djay]

[Gary Gutful]

I hope we win.

Why don't you stop with the constant negativity?

 

[Gary Gutful]

Uhhhh doubt it.

Do you often ask a question with a preconceived idea about the answer?

The Timmynator still a chance of playing with George Jennings and Alvaro dropped out of the squad 24 hours before kick-off.

Cmon timmynator ... you can do it

 

[I'm a loser baby...]

He did say he'd be back.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

And out of those named above, how many would crack FG elsewhere?

D. Brown, Mahoney, Marata and Kaufusi (My opinion, as I rate him highly), other then that players like Moeroa, French, Alvaro etc would be very lucky to crack it anywhere else. Yes, his debuted them and developed them to an extent, some good and a lot not very good. Which is my point, I don't think many of them are up to standard and it's shown in recent times, our squad is far from good enough and most if not all have either been signed or developed by BA.

Every club has players of this calibre. Evans played 74 games for the Roosters.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

But he swings so much

And roundabouts

 

[Noise]

Terepo, Evans and Stone all at the captains run. You would assume Timmy would have taken one of their spots if he was playing.

 

[strider]

Assume nothing

We were coming last every year in the 20s until BA got here...

It takes time to find some useful 14-15 year olds and set up pathways.

Interesting that we have at least some talented blokes from last year isn't it?

The chances are that the following guys who were here in our "system" and either 14 or 15 years old when BA arrived in 2014, will all be in our first grade team or at least top 30 next year:

Dylan Brown
Haze Dunster
Ethan Parry
Stefano Utoikamanu
Oregon Kaufusi
Salesi Fainga'a

Add to these the ones he has brought into the club in the last 3-4 years that were under 20 when we signed them (and yet to debut anywhere):
Reed Mahoney
Jaemon Salmon
Ray Stone

Not a bad pathways program.

If Tep & French came through ranks at Roosters or Storm they would be already playing for NSW...

How the f**k are any of those ahead of Mannah? BA is either trying to send a message or he's not thinking clearly after a bad run. Either way it's not about form.

hmmm. There's two ways you can look at that though. D Brown and Mahoney are genuine first graders. How many of the rest would be genuine candidates for first grade at a successful club (not necessarily Top 4, but a club that regularly features in the Top 8)? I guess we might find out. Stone may be a slow burner...has the attitude.

There's probably an equal number of players who were in our system in 2014 who are playing first grade elsewhere. Just to start....Aloiai, Twal, Matterson, Miski (yuk I know), Kamikamiki or whatever his name is, Fuimaiono, Reimis Smth, And others who've played the odd game (Curran et al.).

I like BA, but I'm not sure this is an outstanding record.

With a know it all like you, I do.

We clearly have too many.

Exactly, just shows the problem at the club. How we turn good talents or even known stars to rubbish. It's alarming.

It does, and in that same time where exactly have we improved from as far as our FG is concerned?

Cmon timmynator ... you can do it

I'll be back.....


God I have sunk to gronk level humour. f**king hell.
