"Paulo is a shadow of what he once was and is getting worse each year. He looks like he hates the collision these days. Sadly that is what he would display if kept around as a leader for our pack for others to follow. Sam T already seems to follow in…"

"Did you watch him play in this years final for Souths? He was owned by old man Gagai. Laurel went missing all game although he did pass the ball from dummy half a lot to the other outside backs to work it out of their end. Massive NO."

There is no way that team will run out against Newcastle as named. Where is McGuire?
Big D May 24, 2011 at 3:43pm

Am I blind? Where is Casey McGuire?
JL May 24, 2011 at 3:44pm

Did McGuire get injured last night? I expect changes again

Can Mortimer kick to the wing for Burt to score!!! Kearney must be in 2 minds.
Dan May 24, 2011 at 3:51pm

Haha... I wonder who was responsible for that cock-up. I was thinking 'Surely Kearney doesn't think we're THAT stupid...'
