Rumours and Stuff

[Eelogical]

Never have I seen a player regress so quickly. He was horrible in his last two seasons with us. Got the yips and totally lost confidence in all aspects of his game.

At least he can get some proper fish 'n chips with curry sauce and mushy peas.

Maybe the Curry will help him catch high balls

'I wasn’t done in the NRL': Waqa Blake comments on overseas move

He has played over 150 NRL games.

He might be a really good bloke, and I wish him well - but he is without doubt the worst first grade player I have ever seen.

That's a bit harsh. He only went to serious levels of shit in 2022. Before that he was actually quite a decent player. Not a superstar but not the worse seen.

He was a superstar whenever he played us as a Panther.

 

[Avenger]

He was on $500K a year, we thought he was or was going to be a superstar.

“I left Sydney, I was just wearing shorts and a shirt because it was a 40-degree day – I got into Manchester and it was minus-one!” said Blake.

Says it all really.

Been to Manchester twice.

It feels similar to Melbourne gloomy, dark, raining a lot of high rise buildings. 2nd biggest metropolis in the UK behind London.

Actually got some some sunshine during the cricket last year on days 1 and 2 when i went. Then went to Edinburgh day after and it pissed down for 3 days straight in Manchester and it cost England the ashes lol.

Nice bars though at a night time.

That Lancashire accent they have though sounds like they are deadset dribblers as bad as the scottish one. It's not the standard English accent you get in London and elsewhere.

My stupid cousin went to a bar in Manchester and thought he could buy a beer whilst wearing a Liverpool polo shirt.

He was refused service and told to leave and change before the inevitable assault.

He's a f**kwit so would have deserved it.

Yeah you don't go walking around Manchester in a Liverpool jersey.

You asking to be bashed.

You must’ve forgotten about Ryan Morgan and Luke Kelly

Harsh on Morgs.

I raise you with Chris Thorman.

Just on Waqa, he was obviously a good player. He simply got the massive yips Ian Baker-Finch style. Yes his career ended up a resembling a junked corolla, but at his best he was inarguably a ferrari.

This idiot wants 900k per season

So this article says that Luciano is being forced out, because he’s on $900k and Cotter is only on $350k.

So who was stupid enough to pay him $900k in the first place ? Tigers first and then Nth Qld ? Is it possible that he will be playing for StG but his salary will be paid by Tigers, NQld and StG ?

Luciano on 900k has to be a joke.

What has he actually done in his career to earn that money.

Seriously some of these player managers must walk away from contract talks deadset pissing themselves sometimes with the amount of $$$ they coax the clubs to pay some of these players.

I love this line ..

They are in the box seat as no other club wants to waste cap space on him!

Apparently Canberra are too. Between them and Dragons surely it a case of:

When he first came to us he was good but obviously something happened that completely destroyed his confidence and started his decline in 2022 and got worse in 2023.

It was his tackling. If he got that right, he doesn’t get moved from centre, so we’re not exposed to his catching skills.

His current coach was once being paid by Canberra, East to play at the West Tigers as well.

Ricky not willing to be outdone.... I mean you get rid of one Leiloser only to sign another one? I mean how many halfbacks, fullbacks and backrowers does one club need?

 

[Gronk]

I remember when our club was "falling apart" cos Mitch told Gutho to f**k off. These merkins get a holiday.
