So... you honestly think the coaching staff will push Hornby to retire.. then push Soward to leave..all of this after clearly showing they do not rate K. Stanley at 6.. and rumours of Pearce signing still at the *fairy tale* stage?

FMD, let's just push Mez & Hunt into the halves

When has the club shown they don't rate Kyle at 6?

They are obviously struggling with the idea of dropping Hornby as the club captain, nothing to do with their opinion of Kyle?s future.

Who the f**k knows. They're rumours. One of my "sources" told me in 2008 that Wayne Bennett coming to the club was utter bullshit. :lol:

If Pearce comes here forget about 'creative attack' for the period of his tenure.

1. Hornby will / is seriously considering retiring this year. As the clubs captain and respected senior of the club he will not be officially tapped on the shoulder but has been told to unselfishly consider doing the honorable thing to allow the opportunity for future club success with the next generation. He will be looked after for his early decision. If he continues on next year it will be on limited playing periods.

3. Soward will be leaving the club next year (forced). He has unfortunately lost respect of current senior coaching staff ( and some players) for his continual whinging and over the top arrogant attitude of late causing discontent around the training paddock . He has a high opinion of himself which is harming the playing group. Price has had enough.

In RLW today they mention that Ben Hornby is on the radar for Wigan, so maybe he is the option to line his superannuation pockets with a stint in the UK rather then Soward.....

If Price does not like Soward, then maybe it is Price who should move on. I want Soward to play the rest of his days with the Dragons as a halfback. All we need to do asap is to find a 5/8. Kyle, King and others in the lower grades should be given a go this year in an effort to find a suitable combination. In my view Soward/Kyle would be the best combo from those within the club, with the King/Rien combo for the Hooking role.

In my opinion we don't need Pearce or another half back. Our number one priority should be a new coach and some agressive forwards or, a new coach who can make our forwards a lot more aggressive players.

He got taste of it & excelled at the end of 2010.. yet this year you'd think they'd have played him at 6 against Penrith with Soward out.. nope!

Granted Soward hasn't missed a massive amount of footy but f**k, surely Style would have gotten more opportunities somewhere

I can understand Soward being full of himself - who would walk off without shaking hands with the opposition after the game? I understand he was disappointed, but common, have a bit of class.

That story bout soward in the paper today is a load of garbage, who cares if he doesn't shake hands, seriously, it's not the biggest issue, and the telecrap made an issue out of it.

There were no attributed quotes in that shitty article Saint06. Why dont you stick with your team, instead of being a gangrenous ball-bag.

We need a Leveson Inquiry in this country, dead set. And we need to get anyone who reads the Telecrap and take them out the back and kick them to death.

C'mon Rexxy, play fair. Someone who follows the tabloid ramblings of Crap Paper has every right to lecture others on how to show a bit of class.

If price has had enough of soward then he would be leaving this year, stop making up bullshit mate. Soward recently said he wants to stay for the rest of his career, rumours like these only start when the club is losing and it happens at every club. Why make this crap up, seriously??

I believe he/she is talking crap to ....people like Amig plant a seed then sit back and get their jollies by seeing everyones reactions.....you notice he/she havnt been back on to comment on the 33 (so far) replies....with the small amount of posts thats been contributed by Amig they must be very slow on the uptake imo...then again they most likely need an hour and a half to watch 60 minutes.....

*covers his eyes* if soward goes instead of hornby.....oh sweet jesus that will be painful lol hopefully they offer hornby some good money to entice him. he is a good guy and has done well for our team (regardless of his form currently). so may act as a nest egg of some sort.

Blood Shot Eyes, I don't see the reason why I need to come back on and defend my comments nor the comments of others who tainted the typical picture of what I expected as a reaction once I submitted my post?...

What I have been told stands and now its a wait and see. I hope I am wrong however, with stirring reports starting to surface just maybe there is merit to this information....

Well we need someone, Pierce might be the only half-decent name out there, but hes still very much a risk to me, there are games for NSW where I think .. yeah hes good enough, but I dont feel his game is consistent at all...

Id sort of rather get someone left-field, from overseas or young up and comer, for less money.. but anyway.. something.. on another note did Kyle play for Cutters on weekend? if so where, or is he just injured still.


As far as Pearce goes Rev I prefer your option of looking elsewhere...after last nights SOO I wont be to disappointed if he joins someone else ...It was only during the half time highlights that I realised he was playing and that was because of his poor attempt to tackle Thurston......as you rightly point out hes far to hot and cold , and for mine I'd prefer someone who is hot.......although at the moment I would settle for someone who is luke warm....
