Fatso lost the dressing room way before that - sending McGuire packing while sooking in the media about bad boy Benny talking team and tactics with Souths, that stupid burn the boats bullshit, turning up with a list of blokes to **** off, belittling some players for not understanding the...
It can be Dearden's team right now if Kevvie wants, let Milf take on the long range kicking and play eyes up footy while Dearden controls things. I think the thing holding us back isn't so much who should partner Tom but the hooker. The 9 is absolutely key to managing the team, he's the first...
This is the 2013 one I'm talking about. I suspect the agents all talk about which clubs are paying what to who, perhaps even back then it was known behind the scenes that we were losing momentum and paying the wrong amounts to the wrong players.
God I can't wait for the new CEO to come on board.
It's hard to say from the outside. Nobody is perfect in hindsight but ol' Benny might have been the only thing keeping us from going down this road earlier. When SBW came back to league years ago we were interested in signing him, his manager (Khoder Nasser iirc) replied he wouldn't even send...
Milford and Oates are really perplexing for mine. Both were absolutely top shelf on their day and fairly good as a baseline before Pies came in and burned the Broncos. What happened that just absolutely shredded them, is it confidence or something else?
Honestly that's pretty bloody embarrassing. I don't know how whoever is responsible for that didn't get sacked on the spot. It's not that I think Sam is the second coming or somesuch, but to have a kid in your backyard and just act so carelessly is a sign that people just aren't taking their job...
Milford was up in support a fair bit last night. I think it was the first try, Milf was involved in the play then backed it up and was off Issaako's hip in support. Iirc the one Dearden scored Milf threw the second last pass then was in support over on the left. Don't let memes cloud your view...
God I hope not. I never rated Milf as fullback, sure he had some highlight reels there but he's not the complete package by a long shot. That said I doubt Walters at his lowest ebb could match the sheer lunacy of taking your most experienced half and playing them at fullback to rehab a hamstring...
Just about every kick he's made he gets tackled afterwards, it just doesn't seem practical to expect the kicker to lead the chase as well. Maybe if we were kicking off the front foot instead of getting belted to shit then kicking under pressure.
The goldy one seems like there's a bit more to the story to be honest. I don't know whether it's an angry dad or just a home owner going big name player + infraction = payout, or there was something more there that Fifi did to necessitate a 5 figure bribe gesture of goodwill. Same as Bali...
We're all individuals, each player should take it just as seriously as best suits them. I know that sounds like a non-answer but think of the differences between Graham and Boyd. If someone with issues around depression, anxiety, perfectionism decides to ride every game so hard, put their sense...
Culture comes from the top though. All the bullshit in the past about trying to split the playing group between Bennett and White, front office shenanigans, backstabs and betrayal, that all has an impact on the culture lower down the food chain. In a high performance team environment like NRL...
Given the known legal threats issued to bhq over alleged copyright infringement, I'm guessing that is his original content and one of the gentlemen pictured is none other than our beloved editor-in-chimp himself. But which one?
