"ScottX, lots to digest there. Great questions. Just wanted to pop in and say thanks for the insightful contribution.
My gut feel is that we’re more aligned up top than we’ve been for a long time, and that’s starting to filter through. That helps…"

"Good blog Scotty,
I agree very much with the "gist" of our good luck....we would not have got out of Talagi what Penrith may end up getting, but he still has a long way to go. Galvin is correct and contrary to your initial feel on RCG, i was pleased…"

Ah right, I've heard that name, just never spotted him.
His a beast!
Sualli? I don't see him leaving rugby and coming back to NRL to play for Parra.
I doubt it too, but stranger things have happened. He is good mates with Penisini, just might surprise us all????
Same it's a well played out pipe dream the he played Union at school so there's a chance he takes us over the Roosters.I'd give it a 2-3/10 chance max outside of that old chestnut isn't happening.
Was an internet article. I think maybe roar. Read into that what you will.
Kelma is not a first grader
You maybe right Dynasty but he has already played more first grade than you and me.
On that premise you are wrong before you start.
He may be talking to his kids 30 years from now and they ask what did you do in the war Grandad, well he might answer I played 20 games of first grade and spent a lot of time getting there. Do you think that kids thinks he was "not a first grader".
I have been around sport a fair bit and one thing I have learned is that you can spot potential but never know if it will be fullfilled.
Fullfilling potential is something that can only exist within the person themselves.....it is very difficult to imagine some players and what they can achieve when they really set their mind to it.
I think Kelma has the ability and this year he is making a real crack at it, especially given the training reports. If he fails, doesn't mean he is a personal failure, maybe just not quiet good enough. Maybe he will go to PNG and play 100 more.
Can you make that judgement now based on your ability to be good enough to do so? I hope he succeeds, do you as well?
Maybe you could say based on your ability to ..."i don't think Kelma can make it as a first grader, I hope i am wrong!"
If you go down the route of "he's played more games than us" then you can never critique any player.
Same with anyone in any business. Can we say Albo is good or bad when he's been PM more than we have?
It is something everyone does at some point, but that argument means we can never.
Tuilagi is FG quality but doesn't mean he will have a long career. He is ok, that's it.
He has a lot to work to do on his on his defence (r1 trauma still visible), but I can't deny towards the end of the season he was showing some form and hitting some nice holes at speed when running off Mitch. I think this is the key with Kelma, you put him outside a good player and they know how to use him. On his own, easy to manipulate and cover.
I'm hoping he has a good year and we're wrong.
