"Potentially but Smith is what we need at dummy half.
These games are won in the middle of the park the stuff that smith does the kick pressure linespeed and alike aren't flashy things but that's what's best for the team.That's what I don't see from…"

"The one trait that Ryley excels is his work rate. He is a mongrel against the opposition and an annoyance with the kickers. TDS, at the moment, needs to improve in this area. As well as with his defensive reads. Hope he still improve for the benefit…"
"Ideally, a team should be built around one hooker, a four-man forward rotation, plus an outside back and a utility.
That said, with our hookers still young and only one full season each under their belts, Ryles needs to stick with two 9s. The season…"

"Da Silva's game suited the tigers, off the cuff, no game plan, he needs a lot of work, we really dropped off when he entered the field"
"Yeah, that was me half way through last year with Russell, he blew so many half chances, couldn't get the ball to JAC in time, and just couldn't beat his man. He has come out of the gates firing this season, so I hope you're right about TDS."
"...leaving him free to persue his destiny and sue the NRL for it's net worth due to forseeable porridge brain....Chairman Instmatto "
"Yeah ok, there's something very intriguing with Da Silva that doesn't add up, he looks like a superbly skilled athlete who for the most part doesn't quite fit in or is just going through the motions. I suspect he has a lot more to offer."
"TDS is the Russell of today. Everyone wanted Russell out of the squad a few years ago. But with constant first grade look at the player we are now losing. TDS will eventually be a quality hooker, he is in his second season, fresh, straight out of SG…"
"Da Silva has more potential, better and quicker runner. Smith doesn't really have a weakness in his game. TDS is more flashy but Smith does the little things right. Sometimes that's all you need.

"It seems obvious that he needs to give this sport away and look after himself. Surely he will retire from the game now. "
"Coryn, do you think Da Silva may have a higher ceiling than Smith? I agree Ryley is lapping him at the moment but I suspect for whatever reason Talyn hasn't got out of 2nd gear."
"Agree, I'm #1 of the Ryley Smith fanboy club."

Matto most likely gonna medically retire
Wouldn't be suprised if the announcement comes in the coming weeks.Postive sign is it frees up a lot of cash and finally good riddance.Cant keep overpaying a player that can't even crack first grade.His times up by the looks of it now:

Your best 19 vs Storm
Based on the pre-season trials, training reports, and incumbency, I’ve settled on a top 19 that largely picks itself — particularly the starting top 13, which I think is pretty much locked in.Samrani, for mine, has done enough to be locked into a…

Melbourne's Matterson offer
So it becomes more clearer, the $300k offered from Melbourne included $211,000 of that going towards Matterson's contract and $89,000 as a transfer fee. Instead of what we thought of $300k transfer fee and maybe taking Matto as well. So many felt…

What is it again?
I think I miss out on the grand.....pricks
Yeah, I had a bit of a funny year income wise, so this refund is extremely welcome. I got more than the tax cut, quite a bit more actually. Best return I've had in a decade.
I had to pay additional tax last year so any sort of return this year will be a blessing.
Remember to take away any bits of ftb changes that he took won’t you
Thanks Carlo, got my tax done on Thursday and I'm sure the accountant would have looked after that (she's pretty good) but to be honest I was fairly underwhelmed. ATO cracking down on heaps of stuff (if you're a tradie and claiming travel you have to provide car rego etc.) plus can't claim travel to your investment property any more.
We turned ours into a French Bulldog after we chucked in a bit of coin . Bout time the working people got to waste a few bucks .
