SuperThread LXX - Honouring James Graham's Unbreakable Melon

[Red Bear]

Dogs got to basically keep their squad and add an international in Andrew Ryan.

Was at the prelim when Roosters knocked the dogs out in 03, great game, fiery atmosphere

The Fed down 2 sets to Monfil earlier has brought it back to 2 - 1, now on serve late in the 4th. Let's go Fed.

Dogs didn't have to honor contracts, we did. They kept their squad as far as I know, we ditched petty much everyone except a core of players.

And as I keep on saying, the contracts should have been torn up in '02 and 2010.

The club would have to start from scratch.

 

[Twizzle]

It may have been but no other club was ever allowed to do that to fit new players in

Still stinks

 

[Apey]

The Fed has taken it back to 2 - 2 and broke Monfil's first service game in the 5th. All hail The Fed.

Actually we had to re-negotiate the contracts of all the players. It was their decision to take paycuts.

The exact point he was making you clown.

Dogs lost 6 players.

Storm lost 11.

 

[madunit]

I am being realistic.

It's a message that would only have to be delivered once - and that should have been the Dogs in 2002.

Or Canberra in 1990

When will the roosters 2013 premiership be taken away, have a squiz at their team.
1. Mini, former Australian rep
2. RTS, NZ winger and future superstar
3. Jennings - NSW centre
4. SKD - NZ rep
5. Tupou - NSW and future Aus rep
6. Maloney - played SoO last year
7. Piss - he's a hack but he's still played SoO
8 JWH - kiwi test player & one of the best props in the game
9. Friend - yet to play rep footy but a very good player in a sought after position
10. Moa - kiwi test prop
11 Cordner - current Australian & nsw rep
12 SBW - God's second son
13 guerra - Current QLD rep

And on top of that Remi Casty.

There needs to be an investigation.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

If you don't have figures, don't make assumptions.

Minichiello is old, RTS is a rookei, Jennings has decipline issues, SKD isn't what he used to be, Tupou is still very young, Maloney/Piss - on something decent, rest - same issue.

Don't answer my posts, you're a wanker and your opinion means nothing.

When you discover our off shore accounts for the players.

It's a public forum princess, accept it. Don't like it?

Shut up snot gobbler

We'll take Remi Casty off your hands for you if it helps keep you under the cap.

Someone posted a blog post by Brian Smith in the Parra cesspool/subforum that the Roosters spend minimum wage on players 18-25.

Just adding to this, if true (and I'm sceptical) it would mean that the Roosters would have $5 million to spend on their top 17 + third party with an average wage of $300k/player.

Probably doable, although I'm sure similar cases were mounted for the Storm at the time.
