wtf? was one of our better forwards when we were struggling at the start of the season

Mate you don't know what you are talking about..he has the least impact out of all our forwards, he is only good if we have no other choice but don't really think he will be anywhere in our 17 with Manu, white, hoffy, blair, lima, proctor, and hinchcliff.

I just can't get over the fact that he makes the lest metres for playing 60 mins?

Don't think he is in the team to make 100+ metres a game he's more of a athletic forward with good hands and  can be very valuable to the team when we get to the big games later in the season with this huge experience.  Still ahead of the likes of Cross, Proctor, Anderson ect 

so he is a passenger then?

koopu has his moments...i think there are players that are ahead of him at the moment, but when he is on he goes real good.

athletic forward with good hands means they are a passenger.....lol

I think Koopu was a good pick up,

When you consider , he came cheap, he has plenty of NRL experience, he provides cover for injuries,

But ....... he does'nt make our top 17.

And will probably only play again if we get injuries.

With everyone being fit, our fowards in the top 17 should be, with a little bit of debate in a couple of spots over who starts and who comes off bench with everyone being 100%

Lima, Blair,  Smith, Hoffman, Manu, Johnson,White,  Proctor, Tolman, Hinchcliffe

Koopu will come in handy during / post State of Origin period

Its stretching it to say koopu is average. Besides his pathetic meters, which youd expect an ''athletic'' forward to make in 2nd gear, he cant break a tackle anymore, which is the real indication to me that he is past it.

He has 3 tackle breaks in 8 matches, thats woeful. Dallas Johnson has twice as many which is saying something.

I'll certainly be digging out the old jersey for Monday night... the only chance I'll have to wear it for a while!! 

We will win this one. We are finally starting to regather good old form and Canberra arent playing to well atm.

BTW, are kids allowed to run onto the pitch after the game??

Koopu has been a huge disappointment since his first match which was promising.

Much better prospects out there.

You must have been watching the same game as I was on fox today where it was mentioned that kids could run onto the ground after the game.

Nothing has been mentioned on Storm's email, so I guess that ain't going to happen....unless you wants your kids arrested

Can't see it happening when you consider the game is at night, we have the electronic signage around the majority of the ground and we have never allowed it before.

We even stopped the 'fans banner comp' which saw round winners paraded around the sidelines back in 98 due to 'insurance reasons' and lets not forget the very short promotion of the spa down the river end which was stopped for the same reason.

Do MMM still do a broadcast of Monday night games?  Just wondering if i should bring a radio...
