Re: Players You Were Wrong About
I was wrong about Arana Taumata. When we invited him to trial in 09 I thought Craig could work his magic, but not to be. A wasted talent. Looking at his story on Wikipedia, his trail of failures is just so terribly sad. I was also wrong about Mick Crocker. I thought he was an overrated tough guy, bu...

Re: 2017 - NYC (Sunshine Coast)/VRL U20/U18/U16
Good to see the 20s have a big win.
Harry Grant has been named U20 player of the round on nrl.com.

Re: 2018 Playing Roster
I am regrettably ignorant on the whole list number rules. However there are 35 players listed on the website ( less Britt but add Rochow ). So what does that mean in terms of reference to 30 for next year? We are losing 3 for sure ( Jordy, Tohu and Cooper ) ) and gaining Kasiano and Ryan P. That mak...

Re: Round 24 - Knights vs Storm
Very successful game. 44-12. Excellent. Another minor premiership. Home final week one. Brodie Croft. Fabulous. The future looks fine. Great to see Tohu back. Bill bounced back after a slightly off game last week. Munster was indeed off today, but that is ok - he has missed a couple of games, and he...

Re: Round 24 - Knights vs Storm
Welcome aboard, Mrs MP ! I reckon Tohu definitely comes off the bench. Allows him to ease his way in, plus as MP says, Joe has been fantastic. Must start. A great shame for Vincent - he has really had an unlucky season. Hopefully he recovers well, has a strong preseason and can make his mark next ye...

Re: 2017 - NYC (Sunshine Coast)/VRL U20/U18/U16
Sallymay- what do you think is gong on with the 20s? I appreciate that Croft, Drinkwater, Geraghty and Scott are all eligible for 20s, but the dramatic fall away at the back end of the season is very discouraging .sallymay wrote:I'm biting my tongue so bad ... That score is disgusting

Re: Round 24 - Knights vs Storm
he looked exhausted after game on Saturday...maybe just resting him after origin and cold Canberra and hot Townsville...billy cam and coops have all had weeks off I reckon that will be it. He has had a big season. This is a chance to give Robbie Rochow or Nate a run. Very pleasing to read that Feli...

Re: Round 23 - Storm vs Roosters
Think Fusi might be out a few weeks with his knee...bit worrying Yes Felise didn't look good, which is a shame. Some of his tackling last night were awesome. Hopefully it is not too bad. However a knee is always worrying . Assuming he is out, and Tohu is not ready, is it time for Robbie Rochow to c...

Sorry I did not see your second post which I assume was intended as some form of clarification/apology. I still think your first post was poor, but glad to see your second post,and thus apologise for mine.

Re: Round 23 - Storm vs Roosters
I'd like a dollar, just a dollar for every time Bellamy has said "you know". Bloody hell, he can put it 4 or 5 times into a sentence. Even Smith says it. The post-match wrap-ups are just excruciating. You know? Craig is probably the best coach in Australian sport . We are SO lucky to have...

Re: Round 23 - Storm vs Roosters
Fantastic match. Brilliant atmosphere. They were up for it. We won. Nuff said. I took my 19 year old nephew last night to his first ever rugby league game. He is absolutely hooked. He recognised how Cam Smith just controls the game, he marvelled at how we fought back when we looked gone, and I think...

Re: Round 23 - Storm vs Roosters
Well that was a pulsating half, as befits a top-of-the-table clash! Huge atmosphere here. I was freaking out when the Fox scored, only to have the person next to me pointing to Sutton blowing a penalty 90 metres away. The lads did really well to regroup. The boring bits were watching Sutton and Cord...

Re: Round 23 - Storm vs Roosters
I hope the absence of Munster is out of an abundance of caution, and injury is not worse than previously thought.

Re: 2014 Official thread and signing news
If Hoffy understands he is a depth player- and is paid accordingly - then fine.
Ditto with Myles. Depending what happens with injuries , Nate could still play an important role in our push for a premiership this year.
