The Tahu situation is beyond a joke.

I'm sorry but a real man doesn't carry on this way no matter what is said or done to them.

What Joey Johns said was out of line and most sensible people would agree with that, but Tahu, I feel was more out of line walking out on his team mates over what was supposedly said in private at a team meeting.

A real man would have taken Johns aside and sorted it out one on one.

The way I see it is that Tahu is carrying on as if he is higher and mightier than everyone around him and it is best for the club and him to part ways for the sake of all the rest of the players.

I do respect Tahu for his playing ability, but as a person he has some serious issues to sort out and I wish him the best of luck with getting through it.

I understabd that Jono left after DA told him he had gone backwards and was unlikely to offer much in the future

I doubt we will see TT again. I have also heard from people in Newie that his better half has laid down some rules and that basically included live in Newie or else.

Cheers Delboy. Keep us updated if she lays down any more rules.

It has made THIS forum go around for many a long year, that's for sure.

It's amazing how many "New Idea" readers, we have following the Eels.

Sad, really. Even some mods can't help themselves.

Suity

Lord knows I'm guilty of doing it. I'm trying to stop doing it, because I realise fishy and co. and your good self are correct in that we shouldn't make assumptions.

But my mother is an avid New Idea reader and she instills that into me. :sarcasm:

I beg to differ, we don't have New Idea readers in these forums,

What I read day in & out is the same bloody ideas over and over again :sarcasm:

I can forgive BooHoo for lots of his prima donna behaviour but i will never forgive him for going all out to ruin Andrew Johns life over something he knew didnt reflect the man.The MERKIN!!.
I don't understand Parra supporters who feel they owe him loyalty, he has previously stated the reason he is playing for Parra is because no one else can afford to pay him any more.

See ya round Timana. Like an arsehole.

ok now that tahu is destined to b gone in 2011 who do we think in our ranks will fill his spot (if we don't buy someone)

B. Smith
Loko
Filiga
Walker
Uaisele

imo i think with maitua in the ranks and horo also we could see ben smith back in the centres playing a beau scott type role.

maitua and horo are both very good players that i feel shouldnt be left out of our side especially when we are slim in the centre ranks

so do we still have leaks to the telegraph? how else would they know what is going to happen in a meeting scheduled for today? If not then unsurprisingly this article is made up bullsh!t so they could say we told you exclusively before the official announcement but never bring it up again if wrong.
IMO i think they will part company which by what we are being fed by the media and the people here in the know seems like the best thing for both parties.
And coming from experience sometimes you have to make decisions that you may see as being completely unreasonable and wrong just to keep a happy home. If Tahu has been given this ultimatum by his wife then maybe that's what he is doing

be honest as soon as you knew a meeting was on today you thought it was probably to sack him i doubt very much its to give him a medal for his efforts in 2009

Is Beau Scott the weedy little winger from the footy show who gets pushed over the sideline alot? No I think that's a different Beau hey.

yes i may have thought that but i have not reported it as fact. So either they know it's fact and therefore have been leaked the info or they are talking out of their arse which given the publication is not surprising

None of that list fills me with confidence. Ben Smith is too slow for the centres (Horo probably has the same issue), Loko is not ready (but then again who knows?), Filiga is an unknown quantity, Walker will get targeted in defence, and isn't Uaisele a winger?

Geez it's not looking good.

Players have managers, wives, girlfriends, kids, friends, and the list goes on. Newspapers also make sh*t up. Why automatically assume leaks all come from inside the club? :crazy:
