Rumoured and Confirmed Signings and Crap IX

[Maroubra Eel]

But we've got no money left. We're not the bloody Easts Roosters!

 

[Joely01]

I'd at least be interested to know if our club bitches and moan to the NRL about the apparent double standards going on

I do know that we are not the only team that are quite angry with what appears to be double standards at the moment.

Tony Puletua -> Eels possibly this season.

From NRL Gossip on Facebook.

Laughable if true.

:lol: I assumed it was for the assistant coaching ranks, didn't even realise he was still running around until I checked.

 

[Barry O'Speedwagon]

Hmmm.

SBW, James Moloney, Michael Jennings & now Luke O'Donnell.

Add to that Minichello, Shaun Kenny-Dowall, Mitchell Pearce, Jared Waerea-Hargreaves who would all be on big coin.

Hmmm

I hate Shoobox, but to be fair, the Roosters have removed Anasta, J. Carney, Leilua, Masoe, Takairangi, Mitchell, and Sam Perret from the squad that fitted the 2012 Salary Cap (apparently), and the Panthers are eating a fair slice of Jennings 2013 salary.

Sandow is better than Pearce. Pearce is only a better defender.

 

[Suitman]

Sandow is better than Pearce. Pearce is only a better defender.

Now that the shoulder charge has been outlawed, Sandow will HAVE TO learn to tackle properly.

Suity

 

[strider]

defense is such an overrated aspect of the game anyway

So true, i mean having poor defence didn't harm us much last year.

 

[Lyoto]

Sandow is better than Pearce.

Pearce had 25 try assists in 2012, finishing top 5 in TA's. Sandow wasn't even top 21.

Hopefully he learns to tackle, because he had no idea on how to shoulder charge.

ffs ts about LBAs man ... get your shit together .... send poupou a private msg he'll explain it to u

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Pearce puts up pretty good LBA numbers. He's a quality half - it's just a shame he's stuck in shitty teams (Roosters, NSW). I reckon he's a better halfback than Cooper Cronk (who is also pretty good).

a try assist in league isn't that good a measure of a ball player. Players get credited with a ta for just being the last player to touch the ball before the next player scores the try. Happens so often from simple ball movement or from the opposition not cleaning up a kick that's a 50/50 ball despite if the try scorer has done the bulk or all of the hard work to score the try.

 

[Bigfella]

Sandow was disgraceful last year. Not first grade standard.

He was a long long way behind Pearce.

The year before he was very good in patches, but erratic.He has a lot of improving to do before he gets near Pearce's standard - and ithink pearce has some limitations to his game.

 

[Snoochies]

Pearce has a long way to go to get Sandows bank cheque.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Not after this recent upgrade. He'd be on more than Sandow now.

 

[Stagger eel]

Uncle nick will make sure mitchie is well and truly looked after!
