Rumours and Stuff

[Poupou Escobar]

I and thousands of others don't care for ANY type of excuses anymore.

Well this is why nobody takes you seriously. No excuses isn’t a solution in a competitive environment. This isn’t about a fat, ugly person trying to be the best version of themselves. Long term NRL premiership success is about being the hottest bitch in the room, and nice clothes and weight loss won’t cut it if your genes aren’t top shelf.

All your solutions are about clothes and makeup, when we need to improve our genetics. That starts with the board and CEO.

Tbh he was never as bad as Eels fans made him out to be.

He was a very string defender, and his post-contact metres were always good.

I thought he was very good for us!!!

I wonder how many fans who witnessed the 1986 grand final, are still alive?

I have a Drs appointment on Monday to confirm.

Tim Mannah... Our club's list of ploddies is endless!

So good to finally have two decent frorotationnt rowers in Paulo and RCG - plus some very good middle/rotations in Matterson and Brown.

Really? Tim Mannah was no good

Funnily enough I heard the same thing yesterday and I can guarantee, who I heard it from is not who you heard it from.

I don't mind Rodwell. Yates looks OK also. El Zakhim suprsied me as well.
Ogden must be injured. Not played in a while.

That's an awesome analogy!

Watching the replay of last night's game, I can't help think Mitch Moses might not be the half to get us to the promised land...

And Shane Flanagan.... I get the feeling he's a massive Drown fan. He loves Gutho, loves the building blocks we've got in place. He talks a lot of sense in his commentary. I'm at the point now where I think if BA got rissoled, I'd hire Flanagan in a heartbeat.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

Moses has a great long kicking game, probably the best. But there have been plenty of premiership winning teams with a lesser kicking game. I’m not sure Moses is essential for us, long term.

I don’t think we win last night without Moses composure and long kicking game. When you consider he’s playing with a back issue as well, I think he had a great game.

Which half can get a team to the promised land?

all we need from Moses is to run plays, distribute and kick. Something he does well. He’s really playing a composed game, it’s all we need of him. If we’re a chance this year we need Drown to continue his form.

Moses had a back injury sustained from the Cowboys game and was nearly a late withdrawal. Give him a break.

Of course he is. I was talking about it today with someone. Who would we possibly acquire if Moses left? Hunt? He would cost the same money. I'd rather Moses.

If he’s injured at finals time we’re not winning anything. He might be the only merkin in the team you can say that about.

I’m thinking from the perspective of only being able to keep him or Drown. We’d have to replace Moses with someone cheaper and bank on Drown becoming the next Michael Morgan, only without the career ending injury.

But it’s possible that us clearing the decks after 2022 means we are leaving space under the cap for the most expensive halves pairing in the NRL.

I know Hodgson has his injury concerns, but reckon there is some reasoning behind his signing…..Drown is still learning, and as good as Moses / Gutho (Mahoney) are, gee at times they can make some bad decisions….Hodgson adds plenty in that department, is a smart, experienced operated. It’s something our squad has lacked for a while…..he could take a lot of pressure/decision making off the spine…..

veterans may slow down but still have there “smarts”….

Especially if he is wanting over 1m a season, as good as he is he’s not worth that.
