NEWS Oates forgives Roberts over elbow, keen for finals rematch

You don’t hate Macca for what he talks, apparently Oates is quite likeable but he certainly lost himself a bit from time to time, about a dozen good wingers cross my mind better than oates

Addo-Carr
Vunivalu
Fergusen
Gagai at origin level
Mansour at his best which is rare these days
Rapana at his best
Cotric

Who am I missing? And some of these are pretty arguable.
 
Of that list only Fingers really does the yardage work Oates puts in for us. I would absolutely want to keep Oates ahead of getting any of those guys in to replace him.

If we put loyalty aside, just talk about the player, I’d call Oates more like Kyle Feldt level, they can both make strong runs, put on some amazing shows, Oates better at tackle breaking; Feldt better with high ball.

Just based on this season only, Eels winger Silvo definitely contributes more to his team than Oates to us.

Roosters wingers, Tupou really struggled with high balls last season, every time we played against roosters, he gave us a few stupid errors, but this season you rarely see that happen. I don’t know about Manu, he play center normally, but played fullback and winger too, I’d rate him and Brett Moris higher than Oates too.
 
This is a big problem with our side and a reason why players like Lodge and TPJ who have a bit of fire and starch to them are a godsend. We way too often let other teams bully us into submission. It basically happened last week and it's happened the last 20 times we've played Melbourne. We are just so soft mentally. This is not something to forgive in a few days Corey, the **** was a teammate as recently as months ago and he just tried to take you out of the game with a dog shot. Show some emotion about it man.

I guess that might be called club culture, which kinda explains why some fans not so happy when Seibold argues back......

They might be delightful if Seibold said he’s already forgiven JD for the disrespect

Nah, I loved Hodges cos he gave a ton of lip then backed it up with absolutely tearing it up on the field. Or Locky, he never needed to throw words around because his results and ability spoke for him. But when you're 0 from 4 it's not the best time to start flapping your gums.
