I reckon a guy who turned the corner is a far stronger influence than a guy who has never had to overcome any problems in his life.
That's a load of plop.

Its nice hearing people calling others bad influences and feeling the answer is to throw them in the scrap heap rather then giving them a chance. Makes for a great society.
Its a competitive sport, not a f**ken charity.

Your Utopian view of a society where there are no consequences for shit behaviour is plop. Plop.

With Gutho, is he playing multiple positions because he isn’t good enough to nail down one?

Or maybe he is that good, he can actually play multiple positions at a very good level and BA is moving him as he knows he can do the job where ever he plays him and it allows him to move other players around.

What players are there in the comp that can actually play fullback / centre or 5/8 and be very good defensively and fairly good in attack (but he still needs to develop his kicking game for a permanent move into the halves) ?

I am offended by your lack of respect to my views.

I am just saying guys change. If we dont take any chances and dont have any juniors then get used to last.

I am open to a few thugs in my team. Might bring some mongrel.

he should also be fired for not even being capable of signing a bog average footballer

Its not a laughing matter. BA position should be looked at deeply. We should consider other options and also talk to the players.
People keeep blaming injuries which played its part but the squads reasonanly fit now. Better then most others squads in that area.

I am a little worried BA may sign whoever can now just to save his bacon.

You actually said that guys with a prior history are likely to be a better influence than clean skins. That’s plop.

You know that there are pills you can take?

Yes they would be a better role model to people from disadvantaged families or troubled players.
It would be harder for them to relate to some rich white kid with brady bunch family doing well. Whilst they perhaps would look at a guy like Wicks or Manu and go gee these guys changed their life around, nothing stopping me from doing the same,

Gutherson is unproven in centres and terrible at 5/8

The Brady Bunch comparison is flawed. Rugby league is still predominantly played by working class people.

If you were to poll players and come up with a list of the best leaders in the game, the majority wouldn’t have a prior history of really shitty behaviour.

You’re confusing TPAs with sponsorships. One is provided by companies wanting to use their association with the club as a marketing tool. The other is for wealthy, business-owning fans who want to hang out with footballers. The size of the CBD is irrelevant.
A large CBD should mean more companies present and thus more chance for sponsorships (and TPAs). The TPA figure was reported by someone here quoting somebody else and not disputed then but is now, why?
