I remember those days. Throwing the old cassette game in and playing some cricket in the street while you waited for it to load.

Good times.

Grand Prix on this was the bomb - while sucking back a few home made soda-streams..

I thought Morris had one of his poorer games yesterday.

Some of his passes from dummy were shockers.

He is not an X factor player but is usually solid. In our team that is what we need a lot of.

Me thinks .... some of the players in our squad are hanging around a year too long.

Best, Morris, I think age has wearied them.

And while I am on the cropping tool...... Pom and tah-tie should be gonskis too.

I was watching Norrie yesterday for the Storm. Had a great game. He looked about 10kg lighter then when he played with us. You look at the Como Cuthbo with the Stains... he has lost a lot of weight. There are so many forwards these days that have trimmed down.

The likes of Tah-tie in our pack .... they look big and cumbersome. (and they are)

There is a change going on in the game for sure. The big mothers monstering the others appears to be a thing of the past. One or two big farkers in a pack and the rest just mobile mobiles.

Just sayin (is that right)

Your on the money again Quigs.

It's about line speed in defense these days even more so to stop the big blokes getting momentum in their runs.

They are not that hard to stop if they have no momentum driving them hard.

And it's about how quickly you can recover from a tackle break in order to close down a possible full blown line break.

And it's about how well you scramble from line breaks.

There's still room for big guys.

But not cumbersome,slow or fat big guys.

Watch Tagataese play so more effectively if he loses some kg's next off season.

He could be a real weapon for us out wide close to the opposition line.

Cartwright never used him right or got him at his best weight.

Still got it in the box at home.

Gold.

Although from memory the controller doesn't go left anymore.

the question is, will he?

Spider, I think he has lacked game time at the Titans.

It probably has been due to his fitness level.

If we can get that up and give him game time who knows.

He's a big guy and quite mobile for his size.

We need to get that mobility much higher though to make a bigger impact in games.

15 to 20mins a game from him doesn't do him or the team any good.

Nothing to do with his fitness levels. Teh guy is fit. I have already said what his problems were at the Titans.
He is also at correct weight.

This is what I want me letter to say

Rugby League is a team game.
Running over the sideline on an early tackle in our half is bad play
Thier are other players in the team
I will do as the coach instructs me
