Lowey3 said:He forgets that it's the NRL's turn to sign 30 plus year olds!
Lowey3 said:Infact it would'nt surprise me if he returned to the NEL at the age of 33 and ripped your comp up!
Ala - Darren Smith, Jason Smith, Matt Adamson - lmao.

Don't forget Steele Retchless, James Gannon and Willie Poching!!Mighty Tiger said:ROFL going from this topic its clear your the one lacking the knowledge!
Thanks for proving my above point right!
Just to list a few players that have joined whilst in their later years of late and the vast majority just joined with the ESL within the last 2yrs as well might I add
We had what 3 players you could name to come over here to play in the NRL - long list below indicates the ESL is still the retirement village it was years ago if not more so now
Steven Crouch
Allan Langer
Marcus Bai
Stephen Kearney
Chris Mckenna
Adrian Vowles
Brad Drew
Chris Beattie
Ian Hindmarsh
Mark Hughes
Mark O'Niell
Stacey Jones
Sean Rutgerson
Mark Shipway
Brett Dallas
Bryan Fletcher
Jerry SeuSeu
Nathan Wood
Logan Swann
Danny Lima
Grahme Appo
Well looks like the list of players I posted above have over the last few years ripped the ESL apart like usual - some things never change do they!
Your still yet to put a valid point accross that would indicate this is the case

Morley linked to UK swap deal
By Glenn Jackson
January 5, 2006
SYDNEY Roosters hardman Adrian Morley could be involved in a sensational swap with another British player after the 2006 NRL season.
According to reports from England, Morley could move back to the English Super League and team up with champion Bradford.
Coming in the other direction is said to be Great Britain international prop forward Stuart Fielden.
England's League Weekly said a source close to Morley revealed over Christmas that he couldn't see his body taking three more years of the high-impact NRL, and his dream move would see a return to Odsal, where he had such a successful stint before the 2005 Tri-Nations tournament.
Morley now has Australian citizenship and would be free to return Down Under after a final stint in British rugby league while Fielden has made no secret of his desire to try his hand in the NRL.
Morley is off contract with the Roosters at the end of 2006.
But Roosters chief executive Brian Canavan said last night he wanted to extend the enforcer's stay.
"We want to open negotiations early this year," he said. "We've always presented it that we want to extend his contract."

Lowey3 said:Translation from Morley - I want to finish my career in the best comp and with my family.
Lowey3 said:Yet another spin by the Aussie media * rolls eues*, he was one of Super leagues worst propslast year, yet he often scares the hell out of the Aussies. Luke O Donnel is a perfect example.
Lowey3 said:Super league is far more superior - PS - check the WCC records shags!!
Lowey3 said:PS. Funny how you dont mention Fieldens decision to end his career in a lower comp ? Fielden is going to a lower comp for a good holiday in the sun.... after all just like the tri nations ( when he walked over your poor props ) he'll be the best.
westie said:Actually... I personally think Cunningham was the form player of the tri-nations.
hybrid_tiger said:Why don't the Poms come and play the WCC here on Australian soil?
Because they know they'll get belted.
Anyhow, The Tigers sh1t all over any other side in the world with the style of play they employ. Certainly any pensioner English side.
You obviously have never seen our Robbie, he'll absolutely rip Keiron "Am I a prop or a hooker?" Cunningham (Who can't even pass to his right properly! he has to turn to do it!) apart. Farah has skill, speed and great vision. Cunningham has strength and some vision.Lowey3 said:That he was!!
But hey you should know how arrogant you Aussies really are!
It's funny that every time Cunningham plays more than half a season for St Helens he gets picked in the world 13.
He shown Buderus up in this years tri nations.
PS. i'd rather you call him the 'King' or ' world best hooker'
Thanks!!! uncle Lowey xxxxxx
Both games against the poms.What did Aus win?
