Re: Pre season trial 1 v Canberra

The more I've watched jack he seems to be built for the 2nd row but I think he's defence would be a bit of a problem there, you've just got to be so fit and so good with your tackle efficiency. I can just picture some lapses under fatigue. I think if he does spend time there this season it won't be ...

Re: Official thread and signing news

Bellamy for 3 more years makes things a bit more clearer. Hard to know why he's chosen to stay for that long, feels like it's either things are becoming too difficult with him being on a year to year basis or maybe he's got a bit of excitement about younger players coming through etc.

Re: Official thread and signing news

Despite what the exact details might be optics don't look that great for us the way it's playing out with Lomax Club feels a little in no man's land atm as we really I believe missed our golden chance last year and now we a trying to recruit for the future with an ageing spine and a supercoach who i...

Re: Official thread and signing news

I'd say Bellamy and ponissi wouldve had a bit to do with him via origin last couple of years

Re: Official thread and signing news

I don't blame Parra, as much as it would be great for us to get him i dont think he should be able to play in the NRL until his Parra contact is done.

Re: Official thread and signing news

Not in a million years could I imagine billy giving up the life he's got to become an NRL coach. Wish he would though haha

I reckon he might be a bit sensitive/emotional to coach a team all year round.

Re: Official thread and signing news

I like meaney seems like a great guy but not someone that ever gave me any confidence would love to see someone else get some time in the centres this season The way the gf played out I think helped the club make a few decisions that would've been more difficult had we won I think they were relieved...

Re: Official thread and signing news

I've always thought you can see theres a bit of self doubt with meaney. I think guys that like contact or have some real competitiveness and self belief to not shy away from it is so underrated. Guys like meaney and papy and on occasion blore in the back of your mind always have you worried if there...

Re: Official thread and signing news

Hard to know whether its worth it as I reckon it depends if the club thinks we're a good chance of winning the comp or not. Despite our big names still in the side I've got my doubts especially After the way last year was set up for us and couldn't get it done.

Re: Official thread and signing news

Think jack is a natural right based on any junior highlights and has got a big right foot step, so who knows. Thinks it going to be alot of Chan lisati and Howarth out there.

Can already feel the loss of Anderson

Re: Off season chatter

I feel the same, losing back to back gf is a killer. Personally the more new faces next year the better, mainly just for a bit more interest etc in the regular season team has felt a bit stale last year. Not that all the players are bad or that need a full clean out etc as we made the gf 2 years in ...

Re: Official thread and signing news

Some don't, but I like the lack of information out that comes out of the club, don't wana end up like other clubs leaking all over the place I think the $worth of talent is deceptive, Nelson isn't a loss cos he's barely played in 2 years, paps isn't a loss at all in my opinion, anderson is minimal, ...

really don't think they're even slightly close to the same thing.

Re: Official thread and signing news

Agreed, and we didn't see the same desperation by us at the other end. The effort by paps or lack of for one of Shibasaki trys summed it up.
