Rumours and Stuff

[Avenger]

to be fair those spine players were developed under his watch.

it's a testament to the system he has at his disposal.

To be fair we developed Matt and Jake Arthur. They went on to become the players they are today.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

I remember it was a commonly held and valid opinion at the time.

of course, those very things would have endeared him greatly to the young and emerging Poucifer

I also thought Kusto was ordinary. But I am much wiser now and understand most clubs can’t afford to have genuine first graders as backups. We certainly couldn’t, since long before Smith coached us and picked Kusto in first grade when needed.

The Tigers developed Harry Grant

There a great development club ill give them that

 

[Soren Lorenson]

Marwene hiroti sharks centre available if where looking at a high quality back

I have some distant memory that he played lower grades for us. Anyone confirm or otherwise?

 

[King-Gutho94]

that's right...Penrith game in 99!

from what i remember it was one of the games of the year.

1hr 30 mins in

There is a 45 second highlight package from the Game.

1 x Parra Try
1 x Penrith Try
1 x Kusto FG

1999 was just as bad as 1998 and a wasted opportunity for us. 2001 and 2005 are also up there whilst in 2009 we were cheated.

In hindsight I’m glad the Storm lost last week as they are still equal to us in premierships won.

 

[Parra Pride]

Incredible to think Melbourne have managed just 1 premiership in the past 8 years.

Considering they have a 73% winning record in that period.

3 of those years they have won 20+ games and still not won it.

That’s still one too many.

Nah it was another Hiroti. Haimona I think his name was?

 

[Stevie]

Well the great Jack Gibson used to say that he noticed he coached better when he had better players.

f**kin hell Jack said a lot of things. Did he ever shut up?!

Must be the man of fewest words to have a f**king book of quotes published

[hineyrulz]

You reckon we couldn’t get them to come out and play?

You got to keep em separated.

1999 was our best chance IMO, we bombed 5 tries that second half ffs!!

Although to be fair to him, nowadays he’d have missed the grand final for category 1 stand down and f**ken Kearney would’ve be sent off in the first 5 minutes

I watched the first 10 mins of that game the other day

Gee both teams ripped in

And your right that Prick Kearney and Rodney Howe were the dirtiest ones in that forward pack.

So what happens to the amount his owed for the next two years? Surely he doesnt walk away from $850k a year?

And f**ken Lazarus. And Scums try off the bomb was definitely knocked on. Video ref must have been on 80s 8 inch CRT. And that f**ken club has been kissed on the dick ever since

Jack was actually a man of few words, sort of like Benny in an interview.
