I actually appreciate the honesty of it. How many times do you get the same old nonsense from a player when talking to the media, so it's refreshing to see Billy being open about of course he'd love to come to the Broncos but at the same time if the Tigers want him to stay he'll stay and put in...
Mostly agree with all your thoughts on this page mate, re: Walters though I can't really think of a better person to come in and change the culture. Last year would be a massive kick in the pants for the entire playing group and gives him absolute carte blanche to kick heads as well as massage...
There's an interesting parallel there, after Newcastle collapsed under Tinkler's ownership and was sold on, there was a fair amount of moaning about how Bennett had all these old heads taking up too much of the cap and how they'd move the old guys on and promote all these exciting juniors under...
This might tie into Paul White being lauded for turning a profit. The less we spent on doing things properly, the higher the short term profit would be at the expense of the long term value of the club. He wouldn't be the first CEO rewarded for gutting an organisation if it means a few bucks in...
He'll look a thousand times better playing behind a pack that's not thoroughly beaten running one outs and getting picked off easily by a set, rested defensive line, but might well still end up a casualty of fatso's reign of incompetence.
If that's his best job the bloke shouldn't be allowed to coach anything ever again. It doesn't matter if he wants to sook and imply it wasn't his fault because the big meanies in the playing group weren't nice to him, and it doesn't matter that White couldn't negotiate his way out of a wet paper...
Sorry mate but that's completely the wrong way of looking at it. We're not catching the opposition offside through fast play the balls, they've already retreated as far as the refs feel like making them go then they're moving forward again. All an even slower ptb would do is let them have a...
I might be mistaken here, but didn't Walsh say after the trial it was his first ever game against adult men? You'd want to be pretty bloody confident or terribly desperate to throw in a young fella who's never played against adults into a disorganised team that spent the last season getting...
Quackery can have its place. In 2014 Maguire gave the players super secret blood-cooling chips to tape to their ankles, under their socks where other teams wouldn't spot them. The players were told it was such a competitive advantage they weren't to speak of them or reveal them to anyone else...
"Journos" did the same thing with Lodge, they knew all summer he was going to play but waited until a week or two before the season to sook about Benny not coming to inform them personally on bended knee, seeking their blessing. I love my rugby league but hate pretty much all the media that feed...
Only if the club's going to foot the bill. I'm not up for paying over 30 dollars for an unofficial membership card that won't even get me a free Broncos burger when we put 30 points on the Storm.
He came here before to get back into the NRL under Bennett's watch. He's got media gigs in Sydney, or at least he did and I assume they're still on, so coming up here would be at best a massive pain in the arse and more realistically a massive pay cut.
