We kept the right half

[Hanscholo]

Just on Karawana. I was prepared to say he was the most improved player in the club prior to the problems late in the year with Smith. He turned into Shawn Rudder over night. I still think Karawana has potential as a lock forward, but he has to work harder than he has been on the ground.

Just make sure Wes never plays NRL again.

Yeah looked very ordinary....

 

[Nuffy]

Wes was rubbish, Tovo looked good with limited touches.

Vuna is by far the best winger in the club and Sau looked the best he has for several months.

I am a massive Cooper fan, if not the biggest, but you are forgetting McManus.

In saying that:

2. McManus
5. Vuna

That could have us set for the next 6-7 years.

BT

I just think that Vuna offers more in attack, he can score long range tries. Not sure that Mcmanus can.

That said, Mchaggis is a good winger, I won't argue with you on this.

Whats the future for Aku, will he get a shot again this year?

 

[Jobdog]

What's the story with Jimmy? Thought he was gonna be available for the Manly game some weeks back.

 

[voltron]

Jimmy had surgery didnt he?
some clean up work
he'll be back soon i think

Game, Set and Match. Thank you linesman, thank you ball boys.

 

[Karmawave]

HAHAHA Oh dear.

Hope you haven't gone off a week too early and put the mock on him.

I think we f*cked up not letting them both go. :lol:

 

[Big Tim]

TBH, I just love this thread and wanted to see it live on, like Scott's career.

Even if we do lose next week, Dureau at least played finals. What did Walsh do?

 

[Hanscholo]

To be fair, Dureau had a side wanting to win the game around him today. Walsh had a bunch of blokes seemingly annoyed that Newcastle lost to Canberra last week. Penrith's season ended against parra, I dont think there is any doubt about that.

 

[CJG 182]

I don't think this thread is fair. Walsh didn't play today!:sarcasm:

 

[Karmawave]

HAHAHA. Played the season as first choice halfback?

I think both suck. Bad.

 

[perverse]

i think todays game was zero indication into either player. one team wanted it, the other had already booked their mad monday schedule in.

 

[Karmawave]

Truth is, this thread will still probably be going in 3 years time ( that is if both aren't playing in Group 9 or group wherever or newcastle RL by then ).

 

[Joker's Wild]

I dont think its a matter of who is the better half but more who is the better half to partner Mullen.

Scotty is the better long kicker and organiser, 2 skills Mullo is weak in

 

[Alex28]

I think the thread should be called "we have the lesser of two evils".

Just imagine what we could do with a real halfback?
