Your new buys

[eels1986]

Well let me put my prediction on the line. The tigers to come 1th or 12th. I think the Eels will finished 6th. Where do u predict the Eels and Tigers to come? Lets see how u go?

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

You must be thick. Nick is a lock - cannot play 2nd row. No I am not talking for Wayne Bennett but there is no way in hell Nick Graham would play ahead of Dane Carlaw. Answer me this, would you like Dane Carlaw or Nick Graham? As for Terry Hill, whenever Tezza played well the Tigers played well. Pretty simple maybe not for u though.

Terry Hill barely played but you're going on like he was the whole team?

We won games without him, because we had to. He is way past his prime and will no doubt shine at Souths. LOL

As I said previously, Wayne Bennett wanted Nick Graham. He is one of the best judges in the competition and there's no way he wanted him to boost the Clydesdales.

You can think whatever you like but the evidence suggests that you're quite wrong.

 

[eels1986]

So u agree that Payten is a bench player. If he could make those other sides why is he good enough for the Tigers - must be light for front rowers me thinks.

 

[Jake the snake]

Nick Graham is a pretty good player more skill than Wagon thats for sure but the Tigers haven't got the forward power for this year they just look thin. With the shortened 10m rule now u need bigger forwards and thats what Parra have gone and got big mother f**kers. The tigers have skandalis and payten but have they got the depth????

 

[eels1986]

What evidence. Didn't Bennett sign Scott Prince a few years ago. He played more games for Toowoomba than the Broncos and the Tigers paid $250,000 for him. You have to be kidding? Yes Bennett is a good judge but that doesn't mean Graham would have pplaed first grade. They have a young guy called Neill Wyatt who would have played before Graham. Mate Terry Hill can play not even u can deny that. Yes he is getting on but he did have a great 2nd half of the season for the Tigers last year. Come on admit you know it's true.

 

[eels1986]

Nick Graham has more skill than Wagon? Jake,Wagon does the dirty stuff. 35 tackles a game putting his body on the line. Players like Graham are being bashed out of the game and the Tigers needed to sign some bigh players or tried to keep O'Donnell and Manu. Give me Wagon over Graham anyday.

I think Wests will finish 7th or 8th and Parramatta a place or two above them.

See what having a mind unfettered by delusions can do?

It would have beensimple for me to take the easy road and predict, just to annoy you the way you tried to annoy SimonSays, that Parramatta would miss out on the 8.

But there's something you don't know about me. Prior to 1986, I followed Parramatta and even though I now follow Wests tigers, I still want Parramatta to succeed. You'll notice that I haven't denigrated your team for 2004 or your chances for 2004. I could have given it a go even though I don't believe it, but that's not my argument. My argument was you denigrating my team because you were annoyed at Simon's posts.

You can be proud and ebullient about your own team without tearing down someone else's.

There's a lesson there somewhere.

 

[eels1986]

So u r a turncoat. How could you change teams? How will u support next? Mate I like the Tigers. I used to love watching Sirro, Jack, Blocker, Elias, Pearce play. But just like the Eels stunk in the early 1990 so do the Tigers even though they merged. U asked for my opinion and I said 11th or 12th. Can't really see them making the top eight but hey you keep praying.

LOL

Manu is lazy and O'Donnell wanted to leave.

Your comment about Wagon is quite untrue. The following is a Virtual League listing of all the players who scored forward tries throughout 2003.

http://virtualnrl.creatop.com.au/ho...&tShow=&StatTypeID=4&CompetitionID=0&TeamID=0

The criteria is simple, minimum 35 tackles at 90% efficiency or minimum 25 tackles plus 15 or more hitups.

Daniel Wagon did not make the list.

Turncoat?

You little wet fart. I've got pubic lice older than you.

So it's not ok to move to another team's territory and start following that team?

By who's order?

God's?

I was never a fan of the BALMAIN Tigers.

 

[Jake the snake]

Antichrist true supporters dont CHANGE teams.

Eels1986 if I had to choose out of Wagon and Graham for the Lock posy i'd go with Graham just for the extra skill factor, something that Smith and Dymock offered us and what we were lacking in the last few years.

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

I'm going to bed now, but I'll take a look in the morning and see if there's any other opinion of yours I can shoot holes in you disrespectful little prat.

I'll kick my son your age in the arse in your honour.

 

[Pazza]

forget Daniel wagon, Lee Hopkins should be the Parrmatta Lock and Vice Captain in 2004

Do you know the circumstances?

No.

Do you know that this has already been discussed here?

No.

Do you think I give a stuff what you consider to be a true supporter.

No.

 

[eels1986]

Now that Manu has left he is suddenly lazy. Maybe Sheens couldn't get him to play well enough. Like I said I would have Wagon over Graham any day. Don't forget Wagon is a utilty player. Lock, five-eight (a pretty poor one) and centre.

 

[Jake the snake]

Good call Pazza Hopkins could do the job although he would be a great no14 player to come on for johnny moriss

 

[eels1986]

Yeah go to bed after kicking your son - he is about the only one you can beat. By the way did u just give following football until the Wests Tigers came about or did u go for the Magpies when u jumped ship. If your true you stay no matter what. Mate I live in Brisbane does that mean I must go for the Broncos. You are a clown. DO I give a stuff about u, not likely. Go to bed and get Mommy to tell u everything is alright and the Tigers will be good this year. I can hear now Mummy, Mummy these nasty people were teasing me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Pazza]

I wanna see Morris pay the full 80, he offers use so much stability from hooker. If we where to replace hookers you would want 2 dynamic hookers like Drew and PJ. Maybe Thorman would play some hooker?

 

[eels1986]

I would like to see Morris play the full 80 minutes as well. Get a combination going with the halves. I would have Hopkins on the bench.

 

[Eelementary]

I think you have lost it if you think your sigings are as good as ours.Man for man ours are of a higher quality.And they needed to be.We were off the pace last year and have made several key signings in key positions.You already had your key players, and didnt need to get guys like that.


I'll admit I am no 100% clear on who the Tigers have signed. But I do know for a fact you signed Hodgson, Richards, Prince and Sattler. Hodgo and Richo, whilst very talented, have done nothing recently. Prince played SoO this year, but so did Gidley. Is Gidley therefore the best centre around? No. I'll admit your signings have great talent. But apart from Sattler, they have done nothing much.



6 of the 8 guys we have purchased have SOO and/or GF expereince.The other two played in the PL GF last year.


Great. But does that mean they will do better for your club? P J Marsh (God only knows why we released him) played a GF, moved to the WArriors and. while he is playing beautiful football, he hasn't won them a Premiership yet.


And while Im at it, I think you mdae a big blue getting rid of Dunley too.He was your spark around the ruck,and I dont see a ready replacement.....unless Moi Moi or Mckinnon take the step up,lol.Webster is handy,but not dynamic like Dunley.....and where is Morris going to play???Will he be at hooker,or in the halves,I thought Parra went better with him out wide.

Morris is our hooker, possibly with Thorman or Webster off the bench. WHile I agree offensively Dunley was superb, in defence he was ordinary and didn't really have a kicking game. Morris is super fit, a tackling machine and (if need be) Hopkins can go for dummy half runs.


Please explain???

Let me just clarify something - I am not attacking you or your opinion or your team. I am just trying to explain issues and have a healthy, reasonable debate.
