"We can't complain. This is precisely what was happening when we released him. We get his cap money to use elsewhere. We don't give our competitor (who just pumped us) a rep player to compete against us.Case closed. I never want to hear about this…"
"They also offered 200k cap relief or 750k. Could've definitely helped. I wonder what other clubs were prepared to offer too."
"Why would anyone be complaining, this was originally what his release was for. Glad it's over lol "
"Considering the following night where Jenkins lost the ball in the tackle when it went forward and was called back? Funny who the team was that benefitted from it.
I mean it seems they don't even try to hide it anymore, it is like they think "Fans…"

"Nope, this is exactly what we were demanding. Now he goes off to Rugby and Melbourne don't get an international."
"Though i have said i disagree taking the Melbourne deal, i do agree we missed out not getting something for him."
"But what take a player that Melbourne would rather debut two players ahead of just to get something for him? Meanwhile strengthening Melbourne in the process?"
"I disagree, Melbourne get stronger and we get nothing. Vaalepu and Pahulu weren't even near the 19 for Melbourne. I would rather him not benefit Melbourne more than take any 1 of those 2 players."
"How dumb could our club possibly be. Should've taken Melbournes offer."
"Good I don't want to hear his name again up there with the worst signings of all time"
"Exactly! It's a big ask for clubs to want to deal with him for swap deal esp after season start, rosters set after he showed his extremely bad form. Hope everyone remembers he signed a contract that he then immediately said he didn't believe we…"
"Yes well if you don't respect possession, you end up without the ball and no chance of getting an advantage through penalties "
"No one should complain now, I said we should take what we could get while we could. We got pumped by all the players that everyone said weren't good enough for a trade. "
"The NRL want Penrith to be successful, because if they are not, fans stop coming to games and tuning in. Brisbane's a bit like Parra in that fans will go to games regardless of how well their team is going."
"Oh well it could be worse. "

Poppas Corner: Super says Richardson is a CEO and unlikely to want to report to someone over the top of him.
Super's right of course and basically he has thought about how people fit. Its little subleties like these that get overlooked when we throw lifelines out in desperation to replace someone that arguably had no influence on the game we lost on the…

There is no doubt he is a phenomenon. Averages 64, which is second only to the Don. And the most unusual thing about him is the way he bats, which defies modern techniques.
Here is an interesting bit of trivia for you. He has now scored 6 ashes hundreds in England. No England player has ever scored that many in England.
When you take out the first dozen or so tests when he was actually selected as a bowler his average is in the 80 plus area.
Who is he?
LOL
He's definately special. Teams just can't find a way to get him out.
His technique is not in the cricketing books. Neither was Bradman's though.
Watched his whole innings last night/early this morning and his technique and mental fortitude is right outside of the ordinary. Nothing flamboyant about him, just goes on with his business and rarely faiis.
He came into this season having miseed the first 7 months due to suspension and in a few months became the number 1 scoring batsman in the world of test cricket.
FMD, a 7 months handicap given to all test cricketers and he is now starting to blow them all out of the water, and all this after being terribly knocked out in the 2nd test and not playing in the 3rd test.
FMD. Just wow, wow, wow, wowwwwwwwwww.
Exactly Snake. I think Smith is the best batsman we've had since Bradman. Bats outside the box. So skilled, yet eccentric and unothodox.
Didn't expect it when I first saw him play. Looked awkward at first.
I must admit I was a huge fan of the Great West Indian top 3. Greenidge, Hayne, and Viv.
Viv Richards is one of my all time favourite batsman. He was the gum-chewing King Of The Jungle. Never even wore a helmet. Oozed confidence, skill and domination.
No idea who he is , but if he wears New Balance he better stay the fuck away from my kids .
Weak lilly livered piece of SHIT! and now we call him a hero.
No wonder this country is fuct.
There for his own glory and pay packet.
Bit like the NRL putting the wife bashers up as the game's heroes.
