Gotta be honest here and I'm not saying it for a wind up.

From what I saw of him in the final he looked pretty ordinary


Rusty

What have you done


Its one thing to be a good player over here in SL but there is no hiding place in the NRL for mediocre players. Look at the likes of Thorman, Tansey and Ellis.

I've always had a soft spot for Souths but even though the NRL has to help developing nations by encouraging clubs to sign o/s players I really wish he had gone somewhere else other than the Bunnies


My thoughts are he will struggle in the big time.

Is that when he did Billy Slater like a dog's dinner for his try or were you banging your Barnes' lass when that happened?

Yes. That all you wanted?!

I shall be off to sunny Lonsdale Rd as soon as my jet lag wears off


I've looked at the footage of his try and after recreating it several times using the very latest technology I can confirm that my nan could have scored that one.

What about how he bombed a good chance through being selfish a bit later on?

A pin!

The sharp end!!!!

BM's Knowledge of Rugby League!!!! would probably fit on it and still have 99% of the room available

Wow, Billy Slater must be really crap then.

We have discussed Ellis many times.

Ill say it again though seeing as you may have missed it.


Certain players need a bit of encouragement in their careers. Tim sheens is no mug. He knows how hard he had to coach Ellis on his arrival....even to do the basics.


Players from developing nations need that little extra at times....its like the dyslexic kid at school who wins an award for spelling.....its sort of an encouragement thing.


And the same applies to Ellis. Sometimes you have to encourage them just that little bit more.

M'lud


I rest my case

Your opinions Barry are the opposite of the likes of Andrew Johns & Peter Sterling, not to mention Big Petero (who Burgess skipped around also for the 1st try)....what do they know eh

He keeps racking the hat tricks up against your lot thought doesnt he
