Sam Thaiday calls time

[Jedhead]

The grandpa slippers are decidedly stylish Sammy, I'm sure us mere mortals don't understand how much your calming influence on our young forwards really means to them. But the Broncos have always been a better outfit for having you there dude. Now frikkin sort your ball security out if you're still gung ho to take the first hit up against the tits will ya!

I actually think he's been pretty decent form wise this year, certainly not a liability IMO. It's good that he has played his whole career here, and I will certainly be sad when he plays his last game.

Agreed. He didn't start the year very well, but has certainly been handy of late in our hour of need with so many injuries in the forward pack.

I have laughed at some of the comments on facebook about how he's useless and only plays for 20 mins a game anyway. Do people actually think he determines how long he's on the field for?

You're looking at it from a point of view that he could last more than 20 minutes a game in the twilight of his career.

This is clearly just a marketing stunt, which will lead in to promoting his post-football Cooking show, "Thaiday Calls Thyme".

Note to NRL: Fairytale time

Sorry mate, we used the fairytale card with Webcke in 2006.

Should never have been named captain, but from a professional level he deserved every representative jersey he received, great player.

Felt he used his bronco profile to further his post football career though.

No doubt, but I'd be surprised if he couldn't. Still, stupid comments on facebook and he certainly deserves more respect from the fan base than he's been shown. Bronxnation though......so perhaps I'm expecting too much

It's frightening how similar our minds work sometimes.

There’s no doubt been plenty of sage advice cumin from Sam to the young brigade in his final year.

After all, he’s no dill and I doubt he’s ever been one to mints his words.

No need to get curried away.

Any Bronco with a shred of common sense should be doing this.

Certainly entitled to earn, listening to him him on NOVA gave me the shits though, found myself sub consciously saying ‘get the **** back in line’ than laughing at his jokes.

He loves to stir the pot and then wind up the youngsters
