This clown is a joke, thank god we cut him loose, keepin canberra in the game.

Pathetic
Yes it might be time for him to move on, he has struggled this year, but to call him a clown and a joke is well over the top for a guy who bleeds purple. I don't see any posts calling Inglis a clown!!! After all he dropped 2 cold and was very lucky with a third possible drop when it came off his chest.

I,ve come to expect harsh comments off Freshy (by the way freshy how is Lowe an in law?) but not from you 99.

We expect too much off our players sometimes, give them a break will you.

Wow...just wow, okay yes I'll admit he has been poor. But this man loves this club just as much as he loves his own family. After what has been taken from this bloke can you blame him for a poor season? He has been a great asset to the team since he arrived, I think most of you are being a bit harsh on him.

Puple glasses - I have purple contact lenses and they don't come off.  Hoffman is a great player, puts his body on the line - sometimes is guilty of attempting an offload that is never going to happen.  I will be sad to see him go.  I think he will playing style will be suited to the English comp.  If he wants to come back, I hope we pick him back up.

1999...no one here has actually said he is currently playing all that well.

But an 8 year career at Storm with National rep...SOO and premierships means that he should be cut some slack in his fairwell season at Storm and certainly treated with more respect than being called a "clown".

Inglis was horrible today.
I know we won well, but they take the piss sometimes. Kicking on the 3rd tackle, making silly plays on the 2nd tackle. That sort of stuff.
It's good to watch when it comes off, but when you are sitting at the ground and just want your team to win, it wears thin.
Bring on 2011.
2012 premiers. Legit.
