I didn't want to give the following germ my acknowledgement but it has become evident that a caller under the name of "Richard" appeared on the show this afternoon. I wonder who this could have been...

He's back....the gutless wonder. Once again he tried to grill Robbie about Sheens and the administration at Wests Tigers, i don't know what he wanted Robbie to do or say. Once again he was shut down, and his crusade has suffered another defeat.

Close the door behind you Richie....

Them 3 - Richard 0.

Considering he's the best player in the team, I don't think that's such a bad thing.

:lol: But you couldn't wait to jump onto an interweb message board and write about it. If nothing else, I hope that's made you feel better about yourself. :lol:

So is MOTH banned or did he cat out?

As for Farah rating himself, he does at least have something to rate.

:lol: Sure, because he carved up at every opportunity in firsts for us!!

Do you think he's better than Farah?
I never said he was better than Farah.

He has played better in his limited opportunities than a handful of players have played all year, so I think your a fair way off the mark.

I also gather the other hooker you were referring to was Morris, who when playing hooker was one of the better players in the side week after week.

I never said you did either. You said Flanagan will "tear us a new one", which leads to the obvious question, do you rate him higher than our incumbent? He's ordinary. His defence is below standard for a first grade hooker and his decisions were often poor. I don't think he's useless, just the assertion that he'll tear us a new one is laughable.

And on Morris, making 40 tackles a game and one or two quick darts from dummy half when there's no markers/they're off-side didn't make him one of the better players in the side. Morris didn't (and doesn't when he plays hooker) get his forwards over the advantage line. He has no variety to his running game (whether that's at hooker or half). His passes weren't crisp or well-timed and often forced the player to stop/stutter to catch the ball. He's an athlete not a footballer and as I said, calling him ordinary is being generous. He's a utility bench player and that's all. Signing him to play half-back is singularly the worst decision this club has ever made and continuing to play him there, and regularly starting him in other positions like hooker and 5/8, is just compounding the error. He tries his best and that's great, but it's not good enough.

Just off the top of my head:

Robbie mentioned that Dunley and Lazarus are training full time with the top side in the off-season and are potential candidates for the halves. He also said he rates Lazarus highly and would not mind seeing him in fullback either (apparently put on some good size while injured).

He said is it happy at the Tigers, no interest in going to Bulldogs.

Then someone made a phone call and started smashing Robbie with questions about Sheens and his record, the decision to drop Prince and the Tigers performance on the field (I think this bloke might of been MOTH - he got cut off in the end).

Robbie said he prefers hooker.

And I might add some later if I remember.

What a pile of crap. When he was on Talking Sport he said that he was happy at the Tigers. Besides that he is under contract until the end of 2010. People,This is just a rumer. Time to put it to bed.
