Mate, posts like that need to be in Blue text. I'm pretty sure that's the rule.

Pink text.

I hate it that Gus has too many hats - GM Football of the Dogs, Podcasts, Channel 9's 100% Footy etc and as you say jak, he should just look after his own club.

I reckon Gus is looking after Gus. Each year it becomes clearer.

Gone over your head at what kit66 is getting at

 

[possm]

I think its pink, isn't it?

Sloan may very well make a good 6 however, the skills he struggles with right now at fullback would also inhibit his performance at 6. So if Flanno was to go that way, it would have to be through reserve grade.

No, I got it.

Agree. But it wasn't me who suggested Sloan to 6.

I just noticed Nick Meaney is off contract this year. Turned 26 last September, really stepped up last year in his second year at the Storm. He's safe under the high ball, averages nearly 150mtrs a game, 10 tries, 11 assists, kicks goals and comes from a good system. I'm kind of surprised the Storm haven't re-signed him given wonder boy Pap's propensity for injury.
I think Sloan is going to be a star fullback, I have faith but if he fails to live up to expectations Meaney could be an option - I mean there's not a lot of fb's on the market. Manu isn't interested I don't think, his team mates off contract this year - Suualii and Tupou would be good but unlikely.
I reckon Isaiah Tass, also off contract, from the Bunnies would be a good buy for centre if Lomax were to make a good fb convert. Great hands and good footwork.

We have Ben Rumble !

Flanno's (or someone) gotta put his arm around Tyrell and say "Son, you're a winger." Otherwise he'll go the way of the duf-duf.

Is there any highlights for this Ben rumble, I have heard his name a lot lately. Sounds the goods.

Man of mystery. I heard he's so fast he can make fast people look not fast.

I love the sideline conversion bit, takes 5 minutes to kick it then it gets waved a miss, followed by a bombed try, great highlights.
But which one's Rumble ?

 

[Divine]

He’s No1. That what his mum says anyways!

Rumble is a definite maybe.. probably the most exciting out of that Jersey Flegg side last year, but so far to go to prove he can do it at NSW Cup level (which may not even be this year.. but I reckon at some point it will be).

It's only the fans getting worked up though, they hear a name and the whisperes turn into some sort of false reality, but Flanno doesnt seem to be making the mistakes of previous coaches in rushing kids who need to move up grade by grade.. as the rushing can ruin their career trajectory (Dufty, Sloan, Amone, Sullivan etc). Right now Sloan can do all of those things Rumble is doing and he has years of first grade experience..

Maybe on the wing, Rumble or Williams could get an earlier call up, I think it would come back to the clubs injury run during the year, as to whether either of these 2 get promoted early into NSW Cup.

He has a really cool name though.

 

[maestro1]

Rumble has a sweet pass on him.

 

[Trifili13]

Can you imagine if he makes it into first grade "let's get ready to Rumble"

Is the “p” silent?

You just never know what might happen here, he maybe worth a stand in if we have a couple of injuries.
