I don't understand the urgency behind finding an immediate replacement in the hooking position. I agree with most of your comments in relation to Isaac De gois & Kaysa Pritchard. Look Nathan Peats was a big loss to the club whom I believe might well be the next Nsw Origin hooker. But no need whinging over spilt milk & move on. Isaac has 2 years left on his contract & will do a job for us in the mean time which in hand gives the club the opportunity to buy another hooker (Which might cost a bit) or sit back & see if any of their junior players coming through live up to expectation & continue to develop. There are a few coming through that look very exciting & I do believe can fill the void we are looking for. Only my opinion would like to hear other opinions as well

You could be right. I think I tend to rate De Gois higher than most people here, so I agree, I think he will do a job for us for the next couple of years. My problem is I don't rate Kaysa Pritchard at all. I hope I'm wrong, but I just don't see him becoming even a regular first grader - let alone the long term solution.

I agree to a point as I haven't seen enough of Kaysa to know whether he in the future will be Parramatta's permanent hooker. What I have seen of him I like his defence & speed around the ruck, He lacks time on the field & I haven't seen him under constant pressure to see how he would handle it. Time will tell. I also think De gois Will only last the 2 years left & then retire his body is not up to the rigors of playing NRL week in week out for much longer, hopefully injury doesn't retire him prematurely & he see's out the remaining 2 years. I watched a fair bit of u20s, SG Ball & Harold Matthew Cup play this year. There is a kid I like a lot who looks like a footballer, Controls the game very good & if he continues to develop has a bright future. Looking forward to the next 2-3 years to see how some of these kids progress.

However

"The Balkans have the 7th cousin law, that forbid them to marry anyone closer than the 7th cousin.”

The aussies here however can marry their first cousin. That's outrageous.

It all goes back to genetics from a week ago. I guess its to dangerous for Balkans to mix genes any closer while Aussies have less risk perhaps?

I went and saw my mate Ivan today. Bought big on the dried meats. Well its now called Neds in St marys. Really nice people in there. Its about 15 mins away from me but well worth the drive.

Yeh, I think you've misinterpreted the 7th cousin law. To my understanding, it means that you can marry a maximum of 6 cousins. If you want to marry a 7th, you've got to divorce one of the others.

I for some reason think Fogarty may be a dark horse for the hooking role. Dunno if he's been tried there at training or not.

Croatian people are some of the friendliest people ive met and they do great food.
I agree. My mate Luka's family make some great smallgoods. They also used to run (bizarrely) a Turkish cafe in Canberra that was really good.

That's because it has been scientifically proven that Croats are descendants of Serbs.
