Matthew Johns shows his class.

Matt wrote an acorticle this morning in the Telegraph titled "A PUNCHY NSW REPLY."                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   He covered Madge's dig at Slater and then went on to surprise with his insight of the coming duel between the centres in the upcoming origin. Have a look.

  • Sorry guys just had a visit from an electrician to do a replacement wall socket so the power had to be stopped for 10 minutes. The appeal of the story was not just Johns knowledge of the intricasies of the match-ups but the picturres he painted in your mind of the skirmishes to come. Matt has just elevated himself to a higher level in my mind.

  • Definitely a classy guy, always brings wipes to a GB.

"Galvin loves footy and has similar desire and work ethic to players like Cronk and Cleary..  His work ethic will see him succeed but the price tag is concerning at this stage.  He is running out of options so there is no need to pay overs if he…"

"Agree. Can not see him defending in the line at present and some of the passes I have seen him throw do not leave me with much confidence in swift and workable transition into the 6 role.
Each week Ionghi is getting better at the back, needs to work…"

"Exactly. Let the kid figure out NRL first and become a seasoned first grader. Why complicate it further just to try and strengthen a position that is quite frankly the least of our worries. A fullback is more important than a Five-Eighth.
Not saying…"

Cʜɪᴇғy Mclovin replied to Frankie Fong's discussion A ALTERNATIVE TO GALVIN
"I'll say no to Iongi going to 5/8.  He's a fullback and if you're going to put him in the front line, it's going to take a lot of work to change his body shape for the extra defensive work.  That's a major commitment to turn him into a 6.   He's too…"

LB replied to Frankie Fong's discussion A ALTERNATIVE TO GALVIN
"Really? As Jye Gray has the best average being 198 metres. Iongi ranks 25th for average in the NRL with a few of those 25 playing less than 2 games so the average can be way higher.
Bob you will be someone who we would sign Cam Smith in his prime…"

"I like Cobbo, I'm unsure about him as fullback. I like what Longi is doing at fullback so un-willing to move him at this stage.
Two weeks ago we might have been getting Galvin this year and he was taking the Tigers to court for bullying, WTF…"
