The two faces of Michael Ennis

[betcats]

Penrith losing this weekend is definitely not a choke. While Josh Hodgson is out, Blake Austin might be back. The Raiders are not that 'badly injured' with most of the forwards and the backs pretty much intact.

Sportsbet also has the Raiders slight favorites at $1.85 compared to Penrith at $2.00.

Of course, its just a bit of banter to get us through the week. It should be a cracking game with or without Hodgson. The raiders are being sold a bit short here I believe they are still a lethal team if they fire.

that looks rooted.

Austin is a bit of a shirt grabber as well, I'd be running at him all day long.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Clay Priest broke his ankle so there's another one down.

You mean the tats or the scar??

 

[myrrh ken]

Will Sticky have to recall party animal Vaughn? Or the poor-man's Alan Tongue, Fensom?

Vaughan or Lima I'd say.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

if fensom returns do we run a poll on how many minutes he takes him to give away a penalty?

 

[betcats]

Vaughan or Lima I'd say.

How has Vaughan fallen down the order?

 

[Surely]

lol honest guys, the no premiership things does not hurt Sharks fans. We have accepted our failures along time ago.

Its like shit off a Teflon slippery dip

Paul Vaughan has been in NSW cup for around two months, but he was recalled back for the game against the Tigers. Actually Vaughan drop off this year has quietly gone unnoticed. There was talk a year or two ago that he would be potential debutante for NSW in State of Origin, now he is barely getting a run in first grade. Maybe some Raiders fans can fill me in on what's happened with him. I read an article where Vaughan has acknowledge his form has been down this year.

 

[myrrh ken]

A Raiders fan mentioned unsubstantiated rumours of alleged off-field issues may have possibly been to blame.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Yeah rumours suggest an attitude problem, but there’s nothing concrete there.

Yeah ive been on that wagon for a while then next thing he was gone from FG, I couldn't believe it tbh.

 

[Pete Cash]

There is rumours out there he didnt handle being dropped last week in the most professional manner.

He wasnt warming up with the squad on saturday. Jeff lima appeared to be the 18th man.

Vaughan had a few poor games in the middle of the year. He was defensively off the boil a bit. I reckon he has been injured

I also reckon sticky wants to move vaughan on next year for reasons (could be as simple as too much cap tied up in the front row) and is just preparing for that reality. Shame really because fully fit i reckon he is our best prop but i dont know whats going on behind the scenes or our salary cap situation. We signed tapine for a trillion dollars after all

 

[Mr Angry]

Panthers V Sharks could happen..GF

I like qld teams knockout each.

So does Ennis, Gallen, Lewis, Maloney.

Not so much Valentine.

But Barbs would be happy. If the broncos lost, maybe not perhaps rather beat them.

FTR rather Cowboys before Broncos

 

[Mr Angry]

Not for challenger just cause Broncos sux.

I just read in this article that Paul Vaughn and Shaun Fensom are under contract next year, but they might not be in the clubs plans. Storm are interested Vaughn, and Fensom is possibly been rumored with the Dragons or Warriors. I think Storm would be a great place for Vaughn to resurrect his career. Craig Bellamy has gone well with forwards there (Adam Blair, Jesse Bromwich, etc)

Hawkins
Did you feel violated by Mick Ennis and his clap?

I missed it, kinda think it was funny and still think the guy is a wanker.

I'm complex.

Massive off the field issues is the word around town.

MASSIVE. Haha. A shame, he's such a talented player
