Chief Chirrpa. "Chief of the Ewoks" :lol: I wonder who that is.....

I'm bored now. Let's talk about the various nuances of Final Fantasy, you know, that series you old farts are too simple to enjoy.

Do me a favour. Go to the West tigers forum and ask them is losing Fifita for blair, worth it. Let alone Gibbs, Heinington and Fulton. I cant help it if Sheens has lost his marbles.

The 2 williams boys. Manly were trying to snap up Hopa, now that his future is sorted, Im sure at least 1 of those 2 will be resigned.

Champion. Would of walked straight into our team, even if in bad form.

My point is stagger, that we should of made 1 or 2 more good signings, to compliment the sandow signing.

Is this in reference to his 2 year Mormon mission or a contract when he comes back? If to the latter with who?

who says we don't have 1 or 3 new signing in the works? until the club says recruitment for 2012 is over then there is no point blowing up if you are not happy with our recruitment because it may not be finished. I include myself in that.

As simple and correct as your comment is it still unfortunately requres a degree of comprehension that is apparently beyond the grasp of quite a few here.

For myself I'm going to start whinging about our lack of signings for the 2020 season, I reckon we should have tied up at least some big names by now.

here's a question for you, how would you have rated the cowboys recruitment for this year if the question was posed to you in the off season, and yes it is relavent to what we're talking about..

Sensational
Tate-was an incumbent test centre
Winterstein-NZ rep
Johnson-proven winner and former test and origin player
Hall-premiership winning backrower
Ashton Sims-solid squad player
Tariq Sims-NYC player of the year 2010 (was the best player in that comp by some distance in fact)
Kalifa Fai Fai Loa-NYC winger of the year 2010

ok, lets go through the list...

Fifita: would be great no doubt, but why would a 4 time grand final winning coach want to offload hime, is there something we don't know??

Williams D: it's late June, he still hasn't signed a contract for next year, why??

Williams T: As above.

Champion: signed a rich contract with the titans and is now struggling to maintain form for Melbourne, in fact struggling to make the first grade side but still a good player.

David Williams is contracted to the end of 2012.
He was only on the market when they were trying to keep Hoppa Jnr.

Also, about round 7 or 8, I asked John what it would take to get David here and his reply was the same, has a year to run.

Rugby League Week also did a run about him as well.

In fact, he isnt, I work with his Aunty Margarett.
He was being shopped around, has a year to run.

Apparently Aunty Margaret is the spitting image if her nephew David.

Our biggest weakness was halves and we have done our buisness there.
Our forwards are strong and with a few depth signings like tautai and pauolo etc..+ POH we are finished there.
Backs are our problem-Hayne the only one and probably Loko to be excited about.
Perhaps Kearney thinks some of the young guys will step up from under 20's
