It's brilliant. Kevvie didn't even need to win a game to improve our ladder position.

I don't think Pies was merely bad.

It was fucked hey. Three men down and the refs still had to play their part. 6 agains for parra constantly but **** all for us, parra could milk crushers while they ignored high shots on us, that not calling a restart when parra played at the bloody ball off Milf's kick was the fucked icing on...

That's a strange way to negotiate. If a rival came to me with an offer below my current salary I'd tell them to get stuffed. There's no need to drive to his house with a truckload of cash but offering a 25% pay cut is just an insult and would likely make it harder to negotiate down the track...

The timelines certainly overlap don't they.

I think while the 30+ squad hasn't changed enormously it's not the same case for the 17. Not to go into exhaustive detail but off the top of my head the 17 playing tonight, compared to rd 20 last year, has Issaako (may or may not be a good thing but likely a step up from Boyd), Milford, Turpin...

All Gordestry aside this is the thing that sticks in my craw the most about the last few years of White's tenure. Whether he was playing his own game or singing from Karl Morris' prayerbook I don't know, but either way who'd be surprised by the club's culture going to shit when the front office...

Johns may or may not turn out to be correct but he can get fucked either way. Typical Sydney media bullshit tacking on some debbie downer southern cockhead putting the club down after a bunch of insightful quotes from former legends.

Shame Pies didn't take that on board too.

They'd probably have a secret helper in the background giving coaching instructions by email and making sure the players were all pepped up.

He's potentially being refused employment because his actions as a public figure are detrimental to the league's ability to attract sponsors and will result in damaging its public image. He's not an anonymous guy handling parts orders at Springwood Nissan being told he can't have the job because...

How's that a freedom of speech issue? Izzy isn't being restrained from saying anything and he's not being barred from employment any more than Todd Carney was. If a commercial entity like the NRL, dependent on public goodwill and marketability to sponsors for its income and ultimately its...

It's kinda fucked because I was half hoping Kevvie could get Oates back into form again. Come back outstanding winger Corey Oates I still miss you.

Yes and no. It might be on paper, but you look at the players missing big numbers of games last year (Bird was gone before round 1, Staggs missed 5, issaako 10, Turpin 14, Fifita 11, TPJ 11, Glenn 12, Lodge 14, Milford 7 plus played a few with a busted hamstring, and Dearden missed the first...

If he's on decent form that's decent value. People forget just how good he can be when he can play eyes up footy behind forwards who are going forward. He was in good shape at the start of 2020 I think. For whatever reason we missed the mark as a club and it seems nobody was ready for the restart.

Did Matty watch any games last year? If our pack was a v8 it was a 1950s seppo v8 that had been left uncovered in a paddock somewhere before being pressed into service with fucked head gaskets, no timing, fouled plugs and at least one cracked rod. Having Ayrton fucking Schumacher behind the...

That's generally fair, unfortunately there are plenty of people who'd get bent out of shape over it and can you imagine how hard our shithouse media would run with it? Pete Badel's typing fingers are already twitching with anticipation. There'd be a dozen stories about the mercenary attitudes...

Three in 2019, looked good partnering Milf.

Walker definitely had a chunk of wrong place wrong time in his early career. He was signed to the Storm and carving up in cup but unable to displace their halves (Cronk and Widdop iirc), then in the final year of his Storm contract he signed for Souths just before Hampton got dropped, so even...

I don't keep my compendium of all bhqers statements about players handy so all I can go on is this thread. Looked to me like old mate was copping it for saying Dearden's been average so far which isn't anywhere near saying he's definitively bad. Milford's also been poor the last few years for...
