Rumours and Stuff

Apparently Daniel Tupou has resigned with the Roosters for next year.

So they have Paulo ,Tupou and Young as wingers next year. I assume one will go to centre.

Next year they'll still have the two Joe's for centre.

 

[Eelogical]

listening to Brad Arthur a few back and how mentions that he doesn’t go out of his way to get players up for a game and that he expects the players to be self motivated says a lot about him as a coach and why we have failed in the big games

Bennet can do that but i dont think ba is at that calibre yet

Maybe he's too busy trying to work out the interchange

These are obvious shortcomings considering the coaching staff we have at our disposal and our COE. While we're at it, let's let the lads drive themselves to the GF....lol.

That's right Must have also use the same accountant for the NRL squad numbers .. 14 players on the field is ok

they both seem to have the same team preparations

so, is Benny a dope too or is it only when BA does it ?

How do you know they have the same preparations??? Bennett's record speaks for itself, sadly so does Bea's.

They have both been quoted many times as saying exactly what Jake posted. Neither are motivational rah rah rah type coaches.

You know the game well mate and you put your money where your mouth is as a financial supporter of the club.
I don’t know much when it comes to the technical aspects of the game, but having followed this team for as long as I can recall, earliest recollection is ‘76 GF, I think I can maybe judge a player with upside.
I think Doorey has it, I’m not mad about Murchie but he is playing out of position. Hodgo seems to be playing without confidence. But in all seriousness, would you be happy to see someone like Momeseia play 10 games in NRL before making a decision on him?

Mate, truth be told I was having a little stir of Hindy111's dad, who always says he will decide on a player after 10 games.

Having said that, if Moimoisea is signed for 2 years as I think he is, the club obviously saw something in him. Let him play his 10 games over the next 2 seasons and see how he looks.

Benny who? The bloke who has won 8 premierships or so ? You comparing him to Bennett?

 

[Twizzle]

ffs, I said they both have a similar preparation, nothing more than that

feel free to answer the question, although, with your and hineyrulz bias, it's pointless asking

I should know better

 

[84 Baby]

But how much more are you then paying on top to have paps? Is that worth it?

Sorry I assumed you were saying we should’ve blown the bank for Papali’i.
I think we made some correct choices but I think we undid those by going a bit overboard in replacing Papali’i

When Arthur does it, it’s the reason they lost. When he doesn’t then it’s also the reason they lost.

I think Moimosea's issue is that he is too small for the forwards, but not mobile enough for the backs.

He's tall, lean, and athletic - he has a good build.

But he's lithe, and not overly powerful.

Plus he is lazy.

A project player, then.

I should clarify - he's not small, at 192cm, and 109kg, but he doesn't have a big frame. He's tall, and lean, and I think it means he gets ragdolled around a bit.

He’s a pea heart. That’s what he is.

Anybody hearing the strong rumours about Daine Laurie wanting a release to join us?? A certain website has many punters firmly believing it's a certainty. Would be a great pick up
