  • As long as his Haynes good mate......then yep..
  • No. Bench only, but only if we are desperate and there are no other players left in the top 25 who are healthy and can play.
    Other than that Waterboy may be an option.
  • I agree when he hits the line they push him back 10 meters, the bloke is soft, not NRL standard.

  • No. Should only get a bench spot if their is no one else to pick.

  • I don't get all the hate for JP. Several players did similar things but every time we lose it's jp's fault. The whole team was bad, mannah missed the same tackle, jarryd fumbled a simple pick up and gave away a silly penalty when we needed leadership, peni dropped a sitter, Pauli lost it a couple of times, semi missed tackles, they all did. I'm not saying I love the guy but he like the rest has contributed to the wins also and the coach obviously sees a lot more in him than us experts so I think I will go with the coach.
    • So a coach has never been wrong or pig headed?
      BA got it wrong a few times this year and Paulo is another example.
      He's as useless as sunglasses in pitch black tunnel.
      Doesn't make BA a shit coach only human.
    • Amen to that.

      Frank, after BA's Sandow switch to fullback last week I didn't hear you congratulating the coach for his foresight! Yet you sure as shit are quick to pounce on any perceived error of judgment.

      I think what a lot of people on this site, who are accused of riding unicorns, say is lay off with the constant negativity and criticism. We've has four horrid seasons, two of which delivered us the spoon where negativity and criticism was the only avenue for we fans to vent. This season we're in the top 8 and playing really attractive football yet still the hate comes thick and fast!

      Joseph Paulo didn't lose us the game yesterday - the refs fucked us - and even fans of other clubs are saying it in comments in the papers.

      It would be really nice to talk about players relative strengths and weaknesses rather than just be a dope like Ron and say, "Player X is shit".

  • Because JP does the same every game for the last 3 or so years. Soft, can not tackle unless he is third in the tackle, can't break the line, passing is shyte, should be playing touch as is more suited to that fair sport and is not fg material.

  • Kenny Edwards is being under utilised at the moment. I would much prefer him to play at 13.
  • time let to let him go
