The shit his family has put him through. If you ever needed a reason to respect someone who has fought some personal demons to get to where he is, just look at payne hass. His proffessional attitude and strength of character is incredible.

Isaako is playing fantastic for the dolphins. I blame the player managers of that era when he was with us. They were every second back they could earn 600 or 700,000 as a fulback. We had nui, isaako, hoffman, norman and even kahu being told they should be playing no.1 with the money that goes...

Everything ive seen of arthurs has been class over the past 2 years, including defence. I rate him a step down from cobbo in attack because of Cobbo's X factor, but he rarely makes mistakes. Im quite confident he will hold up, provided his winger and second row do their jobs. I was a little...

Good on rosie! Yorkie, my cat has been trying to catch and eat the ball on the screen of late, but i have no idea what that means (other than i need to play with him more)

Another wasted talent. He could have been so much more.

I personally dont like it but that is who he is, and the energy he carries into the game is infectious. He'll grow out of it (hes only 20). Id rather that rhan someone who goes into their shell when the chips are down.

He doesnt worry me. Hes interesting to watch when they lose. I dont gamble but id take a piece of him supporting the ref two weeks in a row (especially given they are playing brisbane). Theyd be good odds on it i think.

Willison did. I was hugely impressed with that performance. He gave us everything tekura did in attack but also provided solid defence. I saw him tackle 5 in a row, a complete set. He should never leave the team with that prrformance displayed consistently.

This comment was pre-emptive, with both back rowers, haas and even hoetier out. A young blokecoming through the rsnks would be ideal about now. The only option i can see is to push staggs in a spot or carrigan out a spot. Neither is ideal but i would prefer it of staggs as carrigan in the...

The nerd in me hopes his brothers name is Immanuel.

I thought carrigan was fantastic. He was constantly making opportunities for other players to fluff it up. Id be tempted to drop hethrington on that dropped ball with the try line open, alone. He tried but he was aweful, and a small forward needs to better, or why have him there. Tapau was the...

Arthurs has been consistently our best winger for quite a while now. You cant ask much more than what he is giving. It will be interesting who wins between him and mariner if a centre spot opens up. Id put him ahead.

Well thats it for their season ;)

I think gamble burnt his bridges goung out but kevie is a pretty forgiving sort. That said id reckon madden will step up this year if reynolds goes down and mam will be around the reckoning for the spot in 2026. Who partners him is anyones guess. He could play 5/8 the way lockyer did but i...

I think it will be the GF pair for round one, but it wouldnt be a shock to see mozer get ahead of smoothy and start. Hes a lot closer to being picked than i thought he would be based on what he did in that wynnum trial. Ben te kura looked liked that over-developed kid in a juniors game when he...

Do wynnum know we have moved past dial-up modems? Ive heard Mongolia has faster internet speeds than us. Perhaps they set up their network there?

You set him some fitness targets and tell him the real talk happens when he meets them. Tpj needs the broncos more than they need him so, they leave the ball in his court. If he does reach them then he has shown improvement, and if he doesnt, nothing is lost. In the meantime if he shops...

Leaving is one thing. Herbie, flegler and palasia have all done it, but they didnt slag off the coach and club management along the way. After all, some of the peole you just antagonised might be a future coach/football manager or team mates, and he spread his venom pretty wide here. I also...

Olapu's career choice to change clubs has been disasterous for him. Im not sure who is managing or mentoring him, but to not only leave a club that made the grand final, but to burn every bridge there along the way, only to doing the exact same thing (playing lower grades), but with a team at...

I think both oates and mam are great defensively. Piakura needs to be better in dicipline but is a great tackler otherwise. Oates might be caught out in speed but was fine last year before injury. Mam though doesnt have a lot wrong, other than maybe size at the line but thats every half...
