Rumours and Stuff

30 games is still probably over 2 seasons of football... Last time I looked no one ever won Rookie of the Year after being involved in two seasons of football before the season he won Rookie of the Year.

I think you're being needlessly pedantic in your definition or a rookie tbh...he was young and inexperienced. Rookie is a suitable description

 

[Poupou Escobar]

You could have called him a sophomore.

If true, I like it.
IF NSW want to build a lasting dynasty they need to pick young, hungry guys, like Mitchell, French, Bird, Jnr Paulo, Vaughan, Peats, Sezer, Rapana and mix them with some older heads.

Rapana? Sezer? Bevan French? In Origin?!!
You have to be kidding.

Yeah nah he's a seasoned veteran.

Better start mentally preparing yourself phantom, I think he'll be in the team

Oh, I'm prepared... the backline injury crisis has left Daley no choice but to pick Hayne.

I reckon Blues fans better get mentally prepared... for Hayne to be significantly less effective/sensational as he was three years ago. There's a big posibility his body won't stand up to 80mins in the Origin level frontline, and/or the past-it hype machine will f**k it up for us.

I think I'll be best prepared out of anyone here to cope with that scenario!

 

[oldmancraigy]

Yeh, probably right. But it was Isaac who was the potential scapeson.

I'm thinking that is where the sacrificial lamb phrase comes from?

Mixing your metaphors again

You have to be kidding.

Forget Rapana cause he is ineligible (my bad), but apart from him, why do I have to be kidding?
How many series has NSW won in the last 10 again?

QLD will pick pretty much the same squad as they have for years (barring injury) and will most likely win the series as I cannot see Daley moving too far from this "experienced" players.

All I am saying is give some young, fresh, new blood a chance so that we can build our own dynasty.

These guys have as much chance to go as close to QLD as any other NSW team has in the last 10 years:
1. Tedesco
2. French
3. Jennings
4. Mitchell
5. Ferguson
6. Sezer
7. Pierce
8. Vaughan
9. Peats
10. Tamou
11. Jackson
12. Cordner (c)
13. Frizell
14. Bird
15. Fifita
16. Jnr Paulo
17. Klemmer

 

[oldmancraigy]

MJC Graham is a must!!

 

[emjaycee]

MJC Graham is a must!!

I struggled to not include him.
Maybe flick Tamou, move Fifita to start, Klemmer to cover the middle with Paulo and include Graham.

Interesting interview with BA on MMM just now. Says Moses will be in charge of the team moving forward, putting Corey back into that natural 5/8 role he played when Foran was here.

100% what BA said months ago. He said that he felt that Moses could become an elite old school half back.

Realistically French is probably too small for the wing in origin. With injuries as they are I'd go for something like;

1-Tedesco
2-Tupou
3-Bird
4-Hayne
5-Ferguson
6-Keary
7-Maloney
8-Vaughan
9-Peats
10-Fifita
11-Graham
12-Cordner
13-J Trbojevic

14-Peachey
15-Klemmer
16-Frizell
17-Boyd

I always forget someone obvious in these hypothetical dealies.

Your starting to PI$$ me off. Such a negative against club. I am a bit sick of it. If your not on the bus then f**k off

In Hindy111's Ministry of Truth you don't think for yourself: just obey the authority, consume the Eels and die in blissful ignorance.

I would also like to add that when you go over my history you will find I'm positive more of than not about the correct choices. I could reverse that and say where were all the "bus riders" when Sandow was providing some entertainment in a poor quality side, or when Hagan had a better coaching record than Brad Arthur here and at the knights?

I ride on my own bus whether it is the popular destination or not.

How is this not positive?

 

[Swiftstylez]

This thread has clearly taken a turn for the worst and needs to get back on topic.

@Wicked Witch Of The West

If Sydney ever had a superhero, maybe it was Trough Man.

This character would lie down in the male urinals at dance parties in the 1980s and enjoy a long golden shower.

"You'd just hear sounds, you'd get to the urinal, and there'd be this body in front of you rolling around, wanting you to piss on him."

Quality ABC journalism. Can you please tell us if this is another one of your mates?

Because we have now secured Moses for this year does anyone else think that he will be heavily front loaded for this year? I believe we are at least half a million under the cap for this year and it could prove to be very handy.

 

[Avenger]

14 more days until phantom bart potentially leaves the forum forever.

 

[Gronk]

[Bazal]

14 more days until phantom bart potentially leaves the forum forever.

You mean until he signs back up under another name?

He couldn't leave here. How else would he get his fix of being a smug wanker? 3...2...1....here barty boy

IMO there was a huge incentive for Moses to come this year. Puts us in a commanding position in trying to sign a hooker now.
