What about Karmicheal ? Surely couldn`t be as bad as Croft and Milford ?I wonder if this means Billy definitely won't be here this year.

Yes, it's usually on a Wednesday.Does Darwin have a winter?
As I said in the recruitment thread it was one of the worst debuts in club history. Came on right as the team had made a huge break, got a nice juice play the ball, ran into a nice gap and absolutely fluffed it. The only other thing of note he did all game was ruin a developing overlap and fall off tackle after tackle.
It's too early to put him in that Jack Bird category as one of the worst signings in club history but he's going to have to produce a good game next week. He has it in him and I was hoping he'd produce it last night but consistency has always been his biggest issue in the top grade.
I still think it was silly for the Broncos to give him an NRL deal when they had the option to give him a train and trial. Paix is out through suspension, Hetherington is a lock forward these days, it would have been a smart move but the club just doesn't seem to play to any advantage it has.
I think he can certainly fall into that honorable mention category like James Gavet, especially if he continues his form from Newcastle and Manly.He'd be on minimum wage, no way he should be mentioned in the same breath as a Bird, Kennedy or Barba deal. How about we give him more than one game like two days after being signed before we judge him as well.
Can't understand the hate on Turpin. Everyone is complaining about our defensive woes and Turpin has cranked out some 50+ tackle counts and some of them are bell ringers. Some of his passes from dummy half can get sloppy but a bit of work at training can fix that. Levi on the other hand is good out of dummy half but is nowhere near as good as Turpin in defence and looks to have a mistake or two in him. We have plenty of players with that attribute and don't need another.
Agree, but like McCullough if you have a 7 you can work off those attacking deficiencies aren’t as bad. When McCullough is partnered with Ben Hunt they have a synergy that allows both to play better.At the reported 300k, I'd be happy for Turpin to stay on, he's perfect depth if nothing else but he's not the 9 to run a team. We need to go hard for a good 9, whether that's one of the Braileys, Mahoney, or B. Smith but we desperately need more from that position.

and produced what exactly? nothingHe threatened the line more in 40 minutes than Turpin has in two seasons and he only just joined us on Wednesday.
