I dunno, Duckie. There's someone on here who constantly tells us that a half back can only work his magic behind a dominant pack and considering our pack hasn't been dominant since about game 8, upto which Williams was doing perfectly fine, then I'd say they might have a worthwhile point?

I don't believe anyone [ihates [/iPatton. That's a silly phrase. The comparison is silly too. Williams is a current first pick for the international side whereas Patton is playing for a mid table Championship side. Williams has had some great games for us. Most notably before his contract extension in April.

Thats absolute hogwash duckie and you know it is

FMC, there’s a ladle of hogwash in there.
DSM, absolutely packs win games.

However part of me is hoping GW and Drinky is reading and prove me wrong because they look to me like they’ve given up.

Duckie, it must be exhausting for you to have to cover every base, just so you can come on here, at various points in the future, and tell everyone how you were right?



You do remind me of that saying about if you throw enough e at the wall, some of it will stick eventually...

I think I’m just fed up now.
Once again I find myself wishing the season was over.
It’s like we’ve turned the clock back 25 years.

philthompson on Redvee linking you to Justin Olam and Tom Burgess. Olam is contracted till 2026 and Burgess till 2024. Burgess is meant to be very annoyed with the NRL and is believed to know your new coach well enough.

They're not going to come over here to be down the pecking order to King and Dudson, pointless signings.

Wondered how long it would take before Tom Burgess got a mention!!

Olam is interesting as despite the long contract he seems to be unhappy about being dropped. I do feel some competition for centre places wouldn't be a bad thing, but not sure I see him moving but interesting anyway.

Olam and Burgess (of the Tom variety) would be absolutely belting signings, both possible but highly unlikely.
