Well !! ... this all went south very quickly and it was pure joy watching the "great minds" round the NRL360 table ranting and raving about Fifita "taking the p**s" and treating the great Nick Politis with "disdain" then going on to refer to him as "Uncle Nick" ... disdainful much. Kudos to Des...
Just a quick shout out to David Fifita (still burning in my guts about his defection down the M1 but credit where it's due) for his decision to flip-the-bird at the Chooks and continue his contract with the Titans. Sick of the Roosters cherry-picking their way through club rosters with one hand...
This season is throwing everything at us and I'm not looking for silver linings but there's been so much talk in the press about us losing this "young gun" and that "future star" etc etc .. that now it's time for those young guys to stand up and be counted ... keep the "baby bronco" legend...
Chatter around Mozer being targeted by the Titans ... the club where careers go to die ... I can warn him off even considering it with one word .... Fifita.
Two reasons why I'll be deliriously happy if we win the big one this year .. #1 obviously bragging rights and total pride in the club, .. #2 we'll be playing the World Club Challenge and won't need to endure the Vegas Fustercluck and the hangover that follows!!
Before the 2024 campaign starts I just want to give a quick shout out to Belinda Sharpe and Kasey Badger, I was a 'doubter' when they first appeared as touch judges but they've made a real fist of things as refs and 'touchies' in what has traditionally been a male-dominated area.
I just saw a fan-comment on Facebook saying that Fletcher Baker reminds them of Dave "Coal Train" Taylor, the blood drained from my brain and heard myself screaming "Oh dear god ... NOOOO!!!" .... He has a K and an F and a C in his name ... is this some kind of sign? Guys, I'm gonna have trouble...
I hear Matt Lodge was seen hanging around outside the gate at Redhill ... hey .. if some dumbass journo can start a rumour based on zip ... then so can the rest of us :happy:
OK ... just gonna throw this out there ... I've seen quite an improvement in Tanah Boyd's game recently, seems to be running at the line more, not bad off the boot and his goal-kicking is getting better ... off contract end of 2025 ... is he an option?
Jock Madden's ok but (and this is just me)...
I swear I saw a post on my feed yesterday saying the chooks are eyeing off Blake Mozer as a back-up for 'cheese' ... did I dream that ?? cos I can't see anything about it anywhere today?
Another of my occasional spleen-venting posts. Getting to hate the Dolphins more and more as each day passes, now they're chasing Ezra Mam. Just supposing for one agonising second that he moves up onto the Costa del Bennetto ... and just supposing for one even more excruciating nanosecond that...
Does anyone know if Lee Briers has been retained for next season ... not sure what his contract is. Hope he's still with us , for mine he had a big influence on the boys this past year.
