So the late mail suggests Roberts will be staying on the bench instead of being promoted to the starting side.
I think that helps us, to be honest. Elgey's form has been patchy at best and he really has been struggling since he returned from that shoulder injury. Taylor and Roberts were starting to form a nice combination which could have caused headaches.

Sometimes I wonder how he managed to get a contract..
He must have had some dirt on some of the admins at the Broncos.

Was he really that bad?
Granted, I haven't watched those games since they aired, but he seemed very serviceable.
I can't remember Te Reo or Lacey playing as well as him when they were given an opportunity.
But hey, I thought Berro was fantastic at dummy half, when some of those old 07 tapes revealed he was a one trick pony. A hell of a trick, won us a grand final, but there was a reason why Bennett resisted the urge for as long as he did.

Could be wrong but wasn't he on some sort of second tier contract along with being contracted to Redcliffe?
Anyway, it didn't matter what happened that game, we weren't going to win - Melb were after blood from the 2006 and with no Locky, well, we were fucked, it was just a matter of by how much.

I wouldn't mind if Arrow got another chance but TPJ would be a great idea too!
Gee you're harsh. He never had a contract.
Mick is a teacher, Broncos wanted him to train full time but not pay him and wait for his go. He couldn't do that so juggled teaching and Redcliffe.
Best ISC hooker ever. 253 games. Filled in when the Broncos needed him.
He should have played more NRL. Never got a proper go.

Don't care what he did in the ISC.
He never replicated that in the NRL. Defensively, he was a bloody nightmare.
Hard to believe a teacher picked for NRL games wasn't Cam Smith.

Haha, you do this all the time when someone criticizes an ISC player.. Why can't you handle people criticizing ISC players?
You can bag anyone you want but knowing the full story would help your case.
Calling a guy in his late 20's up for a few games who isn't even full time and expecting a long term career that flourishes is just a ridiculous outcome to expect.
You made a silly comment.

I've called for Oates to be given a Gene Miles/Meninga style role for at least three years now so it's great reading others are like minded. I can't dismiss the arguments against that either but were I King for Day I'd decree he gets a shot !
