Re: anderson injured

**paging Mr. Robbie Kearns, paging Mr. Robbie Kearns, you are required in the No.8 jersey** Do we still have Clifford Manua on our books?  Most likely have to get either Hep Cahill or Jesse Bromwich into the team.  Yet to see JB run around. No, we don't have Clifford Manua on our books. We released...

Re: Quinn takes mighty steps

I hope Quinny gets back to full health. We have missed his dummy half runs and his toughness. Amazing that he has played 162 NRL games and is only 26.

He was one of the players who signed a long term contract last year after his 3 Origin games.

Re: ryan tandy?

I am a big fan of Ryan Tandy. I saw him play a number of games for Balmain Ryde Tigers in NSW Cup and for Ireland at RLWC last year. He just continually puts his hand up for work (the kind of player Craig Bellamy likes)and can put a dent in the opposition's defensive line. He should also be voted ou...

Re: Round 23 v Knights Lineups

I think Nielsen is quite a solid player and hope we have (or do) re-signed him for next year. I, like Super Cronk, am pretty happy to see Ryan Tandy get a game. He has been carving it up for CC Storm and I was impressed with the games I saw him play last year with Balmain-Ryde Tigers in NSW Cup and ...

Re: Round 22 v Cowboys Lineup & Spoilers

Bani is out so Donald Malone is making his first grade debut...about time, watched this kid carve up game after game for the mighty Ipswich Jets last year. I remember the Storm were interested in him before he signed with the Cowboys, couldn't be pulled away from Qld though. Interesting to see how ...

Re: Liam Foran

That's right Freshy. He is at the Roosters. He was cleared just before June 30 and has played 4 or 5 games with Newtown in the NSW Cup.

Re: bring on the saints in the final

Something I noticed about Greg's bombs was that on a number of occasions the opposition didn't want to touch them either, so they would bounce on the ground and go anywhere. This would give us as much if not more chance of scoring off a kick than we currently have. The fact Greg is back in the centr...

Re: SCOTT ANDERSON

I don't want Anderson to realise what a nuffie he is, I want Bellamy to realise it. As has been said Anderson makes a number of handling errors, although he has improved in this area this year compared to prior years. He doesn't usually make a dent in the opposition's defensive line. I agree he had ...

The below are comments from Wests Tigers recruitment manager Warren McDonnell in an article on ninemsn.com.au. Sorry he is going.
