Quote: Fully "I would like to know what the expectations of 'bambam' were this season. Top 4? Challenge Cup winners? Grand Finalists?'"


I expect them to stay sober not get drink driving bans and i mean quite a few of the team here but i expect you will all defend them oh and yes the latest one huby banned from exscape for three years for fighting this is the way to set examples for the younger generations isnt it.

dont know for certain but i bet the mcgoldrick four year deal was more to do with richard wright than matterson. no doubt about it in a lot of games last season and before. mcgoldrick was consistently good and became a favourite with the fans so to keep us happy he ended up with deal he has got, but now with the rangi chase signing we appear to have a problem how to accommodate goldy. it appears this season that most of the other teams have sussed out his style of play or when he is on the field with rangi, sherwin, they appear to get in each others way. the signings we have made for next season, snitch and jackson, i hope i am wrong but i can not see them improving us a great deal. what we really need is a quality player similar to darren lockyer when we are camped in the opposition 25 to get us over the try line, if not i think it will be very similar out come next season, keep do the graft up to the 25 and little finesse at the end of it.

The saying 'bent as a 9 bob note' has now been dropped.....corrected phrase is 'bent as the RFL!':d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_45047.jpg

Good post! I agree. We need someone who has unstoppable power to drive over, or someone who can quickly exploit gaps in the oppositions defence to break over the line. We need a hard working opportunist like Widders, but with a few extra yards of pace.

Quote: Bullet "Regards Goldy I said it at the time and incurred criticism and I will say it again. That being that the contract we gave him was absolutely stupid and one of the worst we have given.

He was fully committed to the club, giving his all and certainly not without a modicum of ability, despite some obvious flaws also. He was definitely worth a contract. However put it into context. He was a squad player in Australia, no more and was hardly, and never will be anywhere near international standard.

So what do we do, we go give him an international type contract way above what he is worth, but even worse for an unbelievable stupid four years, putting him smack bang into the comfort zone. And unfortunately he is one of the last players you want to put in the comfort zone.

Look carefully and you will see he has developed a little paunch, his fitness levels have dropped as stated by a few at the club and he is no longer the best trainer, which he was prior to his new contract. I think you will find he is doing quite a bit of 'boozing' since.

I honestly think if we had given him a two year contract and one more in keeping with his true worth, we would have been seeing a much better and committed player right now.

Unfortunately too many fell for his off field hype and personna rather than his actual on field playing worth.'"


Think 4 year deals in RL are stupid, unlike foorball, most rugby league players dont have or only have a small sell on value.

4 year deals for our young talent are superb but when it comes to quota spots and average aussies forget it.
With the Quota spots being so few and generally so expensive to a club, they have to be the right deals.
I don't think 4 years for McG was the right deal, 2 years would of kept him hungry and given the club more options.

bullets post earlier was spot on.
