Just hope Gary doesn't come and infect this thread.

I just want Parra to win a f**kin premiership. Anyone who cares about anything except Dylan Brown getting better to the point of being the best is a weirdo.

 

[Gazzamatta]

you’re a people’s man! An inspiration to many, no wonder there’s so many envious of you.

85% of us!

you plan on watching a lot of Cup football ?

You’re adamant Harper won’t be starting? Who’s your two starting centres?

Pensini and Simmonson for me. Simmo isn't as bad as a few make out. And he has only had about 14 games at centre. He will improve

After watching Kelma Tuilagi in some Manly games and seeing what a big lug he actually is Kelma may turn into the surprise Arthur project player of the season.
And of course Momo. C'mon Momo

maybe. Maybe not. Harper was a regular for manly and had a SL gig lined up. Did he decline that to play nsw cup for parra? I’m not sure.

Me too, Harper signed a short term deal for the proverbial meat pie and can of coke, in my opinion, to let our young guns a further year to mature.

He didn't want to go to ESL for family reasons, which has been reported here.

BA likes to run with his new purchases. Remember Mummamia, Murchie and Doorey last year. Very predictable. Nothing surer than Harper getting first crack

You do happen to remember that Lane had a broken jaw, Matterson was suspended and Nathan Brown was also injured among others. We even had to go as far as getting Lumelume special permission to play from outside the Top 30.

If you look at stats Simmo broke over 70 tackles. That ranked him inn the top half of centres. His meters gained where well above average and his defense is solid there.
People bagged him a lot but he wasn't any worse then any of the other backs in our side.
I think he is a certain starter.

I suspect Harper might not start (depending on injuries), but he will be first man in when a wing/centre injury occurs ... then may stay there .... he might take Russells place

Bailey is a competent first grader but he does have a fergo like brain explosion in him every couple of weeks that makes you just scratch your head.

Yep. I remember all that mate. Time will tell. Its how BA rolls.

Always has that "Brain explosion imminent" look in his eyes.

Let’s just be grateful his brain explosions aren’t in the waqa category

The only player that was assured of a start was Hopgood. The rest were made due to injury. January will be interesting as will the trials, however I expect the likes of Talagi and possibly Guymer to push ahead of Harper at this point. Tuilagi will be a definite start.

Simmo also has a crack but FMD he’s a brain fart waiting to happen. Watching the game against the Donkey’s live I said to my mates here comes the intercept when he was running sideways. Nek Minnett the Broncos were streaking up the field and I was off to the bar for another drink.

Harper.....can't believe no one has mentioned him.

I'm curious to see how he goes.....I like the battlers

Fairly sure I mentioned him in my post..

Sorry....I missed it
