Rumours and Stuff

[emjaycee]

May be able to get exemption to add another player to the 21 named. Hopefully Samrani is brought back into the squad.

Gee poor old Jason Ryles has probably figured out in 6 weeks how cursed this club is.

How can you judge what plans/systems he has put in place properly when he wont have his 2 best players at his disposal for the same time for at least half the season.

7 weeks from now is when Origin starts.

Does Lomax come straight back into the NSW team off a long break.

Moses/Lomax could have played Origin games together then for Parra by mid-July at this rate.

If, but, maybe, merkin. We won't get anywhere near the 8 this year

Not with that attitude we won’t.
I agree with end of post about one week at a time but

I think even fit Daley probably goes
1. Dedwards
2. 2 - although I think Lomax is sort of better suited, maybe biased
3. Loltrell - the fapathon last week probably cemented that. In semen.
4/5. Crichton/Trvbsnhchevic - let’s be honest Daley picking them regardless

If Trbbcheejevic is out or if Dedwards out (assuming Daley goes Trbo not Hogesco) then Lomax would be 1st drop but he’d need to be available

Sounds a bit like last year, heh?

What kind of voodoo curse is this

they disturbed something when they built the new stadium

We had Morgan Harper last year

 

[Stagger eel]

and before that?...we've pretty much been voodoo'd since the start of the 87 competition.

 

[emjaycee]

Maybe the last 2 stadiums are the cause?

I think Pou jumped on board in 1990 - roughly about right

Not really we actually have a coach this year.

 

[RustedonEel]

Not really we actually have a coach this year.

Last year's coach had double the wins though

Not really we actually have a coach this year.

So the unavailabilty of key players is really unfortunate for JR, but irrelevant to the evaluation of the former coach? Whatever. Let's be clear, part of the unavailabilty of experienced players this year is down to JR's decision to move on both your namesake and RCG. That may well turn out to be a good decision. I hope it does. I suspect we'll give it a red hot go this Saturday anyway.

Even with Moses out last year the two teams put on the park aren't really comparable.


And are we really comparing a 5 game rookie to an 11 year so called super coach??

Not according to King-Gutho94 who contends we really only have a Coach, THIS YEAR so take your interruption and (fill in the blanks)

Re experience leaving, I’ve watched the Tits play th8 year and never noticed RCG playing , at least nothing noticeable.

Gutho is what he is, he’s started well, but he was offered a chance to stay on his existing ciand went off in search of $$$ and got them , think we all miss his determination and will to win, not sure we miss the drama endured each time his contract was up. Iongi looks like the future and happy to run with that.

 

[emjaycee]

If the plan is to build a team that contest for top 4 (and premierships) in the coming years, our recruitment (of players like Iongi, Joash, Lomax, Williams, Kautoga, etc) and retention (incl. letting RCG and Gutho leave) look okay so far.

 

[hineyrulz]

RCG has been crap from what i've seen from the Tits, especially considering he's gone into a pretty strong pack. Gutho is a loss and he was always going to be this year but from what i saw from Iongi on Saturday he's going to missed less and less each and every week. If anyone saw JR in the presser i don't think he's losing much sleep at Gutho not being here. He was also trying to change the clubs culture and that was never going to happen with Bea Arthur's number 1 fan staying on.
