"We could use Wishart for 2027."
"I think it's possible."
"We don't need Wishart, where would he play? He's not going to oust Pezet, or Walker, Hopgood or JDB."
"Louero is crap."
"Warwick would be good. Loiero, why? don't we have better than him, Walker, JDB and Hopgood all far better. Why would you get Blore, then move our best 2nd rower to accommodate him, no. Howarth would be a good choice, still young and plenty of…"
"Blore and Warbrick be good but there's some really good talent lined up at the Storm we could poach more than just 1or 2 players "
"Just make them take Matto at full freight. That seems fair. "
"Pahulu would be great. Blore too and turn Jack Williams into a fulltime middle.
I won't mind Nick Meaney too as backup fullback/winger/centre making him a replacement for Russell basically.
I'd take Howarth too but they won't budge on him I…"

"Stuff melbourne. They have done us no favours. Unless they give us coates or whishart fark them"
"So does he become a free agent if we refuse to take him back?"
"Should be a good signing. Look how much Jr has improved Russell in 12 months. Imagine if BK improves just as much over the next 12 months. "
"He would know (and so would we) that after getting him off our books we would be forced to spend his cap space on other players. You can't leave a $700k gap in your salary cap. The NRL rules state you have to spend at least 97.5% of it. So we would…"
"Are you saying there could be a case of biting of the tongues from both Simonsson and Ryles etc. over the fact Simonsson maybe couldn't get a deal, or a deal worthwhile, anywhere else so he is now just copping it?"
"Your mention of BA affliiation with Brown. Someone on another site brought up an interesting point. Russell is a client of Chris Orr, who also manages Ryan Matterson and Bailey Simonsson, as well Shaun Lane at the time. Who also is managed by the…"
"Pou, is that you? FFS could give it away ahaha."
"Frank next you will say Matt Arthur is not the best talent the club has produced in the last few decades like TCT said.

ANY MORE SIGNINGS???
I've been frustrated recently about the work we have been doing in the open market. Jonah's alright for a year and JDB is solid but he's getting old. I feel we need more in the forwards and some a replacement outside back. All I have seen is links…

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.
The guy is a freak, watching him plkay is not like anything you will see in world sport anywhere, he is a different charachter that's for sure but man is he good.
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.
