Rumours and Stuff

It’s easy to dominate against Newcastle and the Tigers. When was the last time he did it against the top 4 teams and consistently?

Serious question.

And Brown is a notorious slow starter. Whatever he is doing socially in the off season has to change.
i think he does a lot of mirror stuff

Rumour Parra has reached out to Curtis Sironen to sign effective immediately. Thoughts?
I suspect this was considered and never occurred, hence why we gave the bloke in 22 last night a gig to be player 29. We don't need to fill spot 30 until later in the year.

Yes please.

Then we can let Nathan Brown go (if that is what has been rumoured to be happening) - or make Matterson give himself a good look in the mirror for choosing to be MIA in Rounds 1-3.

Yeah seems strange. Mind you, the rumour comes from Instagram so I did take it with a large grain of salt.

Yep, that’s all he has to do. Run hard, tackle hard and offload sparingly. If he can do that he will be a great addition to the bench.
It’s not just his ball skills that make him special. He has great footwork for his size. That means lots of isolated defenders and quick play-the-balls. Unfortunately he is always tempted to make the pass when he wrong foots a defender. Did well to hold the ball last night though, as you say.

His footwork also means good lateral movement in defence. He just needs to consistently want to get his body in front. He did well last night at least.

Well he's not official yet. So he may have been given dispensation.

We do have some sneaky news however ... Jabriel Kalache

Jabriel Kalache is a centre. Who I am assuming is playing Flegg this weekend

I'm glad you said that. It reminded me of a game vs STG last year when they just laid all over us and slowed the game down to a walk. The ref let them get away with it, save the odd 6 again.

It mind f**ked us and we couldn't cope.
Yep. It was so blatant, especially from Munster. They continually do it and are happy to give away the odd 6 again. I could see that it was getting under Gutho's skin in particular.

Ideally we don’t fill it because we have to, we fill it because we’ve found someone who can contribute at a good price. Sironen would be a great signing for a max of two years.

Gees, dude - chill!

It's round 1, and you're talking about 0 and 4.
I actually saw one of the earlier post where they feared that we would be 0 from 4 and I just mentioned what happened the last time that happened im not saying that's what will happen but but I saw an earlier post who feared that we would be 0 and 4
