Ossie's Blunder

Now that it has come to light that Cooper Cronk was the half back we are chasing and nearly had??

 

I feel because we offered him $2 Million over the 4yrs, this was the reason we let Mateo and Inu go, as well as holding back on Grothe and Horo's futures...  All 4 are Parra juniors we are letting go, all on the hope of getting Cronk...

 

Looks like it has backfired... and could end up with no real big signing (apart from a broken down Tuiaki) if that even happens??.

 

Also the so called "in the bag" signing of Trent Barrett fell through....

 

Now appears the Kimmorley signing is not going to happen as well.

 

Just some thoughts on this to discuss ....

 

 

 

And 1 more point.... As parra supporters it would be nice if people writing on these blogs could spell the players names correctly, i mean, Jarryd Hayne, our number 1 man, people continually spell his name wrong, as well as other players... im not referring to guys like pele (whatever)...

  • the half back isnt cronk.
    • It is, it has been in the papers... Melbourne have also said parra are seeking Cronk
  • The name is 'Brett Kenny'...not 'Bert'.hahaha...
  • haha..i thought so.Who cares how people spell the names...its what they write that matters the most, don't you think?
    • To be honest Sharkies it drives me bonkers too.

      I know typos happen, but I think it's a bit disrespectful when people misspell the names of others.

      This may just be a personal thing though. :-)
      • Tinkerbell, I also pride myself on spelling words/names correctly but to be honest, I don't give a stuff if anyone else makes a mistake. I find it annoying when people (not you Tinks) constantly harp on the posters who aren't that great at English....it may irk but just ignore.
        • haha...just noticed we both used the term 'to be honest'....

"In fairness to Cleary as much as I'd love to sink the boot into that Penreff scum, he did not get one quick play the ball tonight to do Cleary things. Why was the refereeing so different to game 2? There were times tonight when NSW was well on top…"
