Rumoured Signings and Even More Crap X

[cv8z]

personally i think they're very similar players talent wise. the difference is simply the pack they play've played behind.

Balin's service from dummy half is better than Keating's
He more often than Keating takes the right option
He doesn't throw wayward passes as much as Keating
In my opinion ofcourse.

 

[lingard]

Hookers Young/fein both better than keating, didn't fein play for nz?
Halves - soward and hornby (both played origin)
Fullback - Boyd , origin/australian rep and Clive Churchill medal winger (personally I thought young should have got it)

They had a pretty good spine in 2010

Agree. If Hornby had remained at fullback instead of being switched to the halves, I think he might have played fullback for NSW on quite a few occasions. A very underrated footballer.

My Roosters mate reckons that we have enquired about Michael Crocker for the rest of this year. I'd take him if we have cap money left with an option for next year.

 

[Avenger]

Just watched Kingston play. His service from dummy half is light years ahead of anything that Keating has.

 

[bartman]

Agree. Signing Crocker mid-year would add some starch, and allow us to drop Maitua to Wenty.

If its true I think we could be waiting for Roberts to leave.

 

[bartman]

Fair enough. Wait for Roberts to leave, have the cash to sign Crocker for the rest of the year, and then drop Maitua to Wenty!

 

[hineyrulz]

Crocker will add some starch to our pack.

You're deadset high on the wacky if you think Sticky will drop a Captain - or as Mark Warren called him last night - THE INTERNATIONAL....

He's been calling him that since he started with us, its rather embarrassing, he has to go, Mark Warren that is.

I agree Reni won't be dropped.

Isn't Crocker signed with souths? What would the roosters know about this?

Crocker would still have mates and contacts at Roosters since he played there for a few years.

I think Crock is probably a crock , 33 at last count , but if you stuck him in the same pack as Hock , who appears to be a Morley clone, there'd finally be a bit of mongrel in our pack. Plus he would teach a thing or two about dishing it out to the opposition to our younger guys like Kelepi , Pauli and co.

Crock and Hock in the same pack would sound great in commentary.

My mate knows him.

That's not particularly hard. What was his defence like?

 

[lucablight]

Always thought Crocker was overrated.

 

[T.S Quint]

Good idea, let's buy another Reserve Grader.

Crocker would be a waste of money. All he will do is tie up salary cap space for next year.
We have plenty of young blokes who will play for less money and also have two Englishmen coming who will stiffen up our pack.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Crocker might provide the leadership that none of our players have consistently shown.

 

[TheRam]

Crocker is way past it. If he's the best we can do at this point, boy has our club got problems.

The board needs to be sacked.
