Rumours and Stuff

It’s only the RLW Mole, but, he is reporting Cronk will be announced officially on Monday.

More importantly he is reporting Pearce and Friend have been given permission to speak with other clubs.

IF true, I hope we’re having a crack at Friend.

Tell us why his height will be massive? He is not a noted offloader of the ball, such as $BW, who used his height to pass over the top of shorter players. The most powerful forwards, the ones that carry 2 or 3 players another 10 meters after contact, are the squat players like Matt Scott. So again why is height such an important consideration?

If this is true I find it a bit mind boggling and pretty poor from the Chooks

Firstly, Pearce is a decent half (but not great) and current SOO half for the Blues and at his peak playing age and 5 years younger than Cronk, yet they have the short sightedness to ditch him for Cronk who has 2 years left at the most and possibly just 1.

Secondly I find their their disloyalty rather staggering.

I think it will be interesting to see how Cronk goes at the Chooks as he has been surrounded by some of the games best players at the Storm, Maroons and the Roos, he wont get it so easy at the Chooks. I do not think he will produce the same form at the Chooks that he did at the Storm.

Unless Pearce has been on the nose for a bit and this is the excuse they need to shaft him...given his off field rubbish I wouldn't be at all surprised.

I'd never even heard of it until now. I just remember him from Black Books and a couple of stand up comedy DVDs I've seen.

It's well worth it if it ever reappears on tv. A bit of a slow burner, but it works well. In a former life, I used to (partly) run a pub in the UK that regularly hosted stand-up acts. Dylan performed once in the late 90s. It's not an act. He's a compete mutant.

Yeah. IIRC the character was basically Bernard before all hope had been lost. I don't think he's an actor.

If the Chooks think they are a premiershipnif land Cronk then why not for 2 yrs?
