Poore V/S FUI

Posted by Besty on March 21, 2010 at 4:19pm

Well todays game game should show anyone who thinks poore is better value or worth the over the top odds we paid him was wrong. FUI was the only one who even looked like scoring and was the first one to score and hence got the teams momentum going. Yes poore is a good prop but FUI is worth more to this team than just about anyone except Hayne. Poore will give value but in no way will he inspire the team like FUI does, Cayless to the bench and FUI to start every single game from now on. Haynes brilliance from last year was on the back on FUI's huge damaging runs. Two weeks in a row Poore has given away stupid penalties from dirty play

Yes good point. Cayless passing game better suited after 20 minutes. Good to see our second phase play passing kicked in in the back half. FUI starting should put the pressure right on Poore and bring the best out in him.

Moi Mois needs to support his family , Poore is paid more then Moi Moi and fui runs twice as hard and shows way more passion, Justin poore needs to step it up, its not fare that moi moi is playing his guts out to support his family and to show the fans he has pride and passion just to earn less money then a new front rower that doesnt step up.

I feel you playa, but DA ain't gunna bench our captain, Poore is a good solid prop, so is Cayless but FUI is AMAZING and needs to start every week.

Poore or Cayless to the second row, B.Smith to the bench and moimoi into the front row.

BBB out

The guy who put 300 into Poore winning Dally M must be kicking/hanging himself

I didn't get to the game today and didn't watch it on fox. Listening to the 2GB call it sounded like Poore might be in a fair bit of strife for his George Rose style hit in the 1st half. Brohman (for what it's worth) predicted that he might get 3 weeks.

It means we can have Fui back in the run on side.

Yes and it will force the issue about FUI starting. it was a cheap dirty shot.Not an enforcer type play

  Everyone whinges when parra lack mongrel and then the first sign that we have recruited a player with a bit of c**t about him and we don't like that either.
  
  Tough crew!

    u can have mongrel and not give away silly penaltys. Poore is doing stupid shit when the opposition are on the ground.

    Big difference between being dirty and being tough and having mongrel. You'd be the first one to blow up if one of our blokes copped a late cheap shot. Poore is over paid for what he does. Today proved that beyond doubt. Oh and I didn't whinge last year about not having any mongrel , we had a good big mobile pack. Stupid penalties don't win games and now this over priced prop will earn his money the easy way, from the sidelines, how the hell is that smart ??????? or tough LOL

      Well I think we lack mongrel at times.
      
      Poore is looking to take on an aggressor role I am not saying he is being smart about it at the moment but at least he is going to stand up to blokes like Josh Perry and give him a bit of what he dishes out.
      
      He'll probably have a couple of weeks on the sidelines to figure out how he can do that a little more legally in the future.
