No trees were harmed during the creation of this post.
However, a number of electrons were mildly inconvenienced.

The only thing that annoyed me about Slater at the DW was the amount of whinging that he did.
He's an awesome player when he just stops whining to the referee constantly and plays.

I'd forgotten how much crap Farrell used to get, any time we lost the buck seemed to stop with him the eyes of a lot of fans. It's a good argument for having a leadership team I suppose. |

He's always like that, a typical Aussie whinger 
He really annoyed me how many times he throw away the ball in that game |

You've got more chance of signing Stacey Slater, i also think she'd put herself about a bit more than Fielden!!

Now you've said it,I think I would rather see Stacey Slater in the famous cherry and white.That would increase the attendance figures.Can we also sign Kelly Brook to play loose forward and maybe redesign the kit for something even tighter with smaller shorts

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

I was over in aus last year, managed to catch a few games, and the majority of aussies hated billy slater but f*** me, some of the tries i watched him score, some of the tackles he made, were absolutely above and beyond our super league, an absolute miracle worker, but he's a little rat xD
I thought canberra's josh dugan, is outstanding, that tackle on adam blair (i think) was absolutely world class. Whoever it was, he kept a prop forward out while he was running full pelt at him with only him to run at whilst 1 metre away from the line, awesome.
Then he picks an outstanding ball up should of been a try, left billy slater in no-mans land, but unfairly it was not awarded. He looks a good-un

Agreed, Slater is outstanding, but he's a little $thithouse at times to
Dugan is a fantastic player, and is going to be a real superstar - the Aussies really are so blessed in the backs it's silly. |

Folau is an interesting one, all the physical talent in the world but his career really seemed to have stalled after leaving the Storm. Hopefully the Folau from this weekends game (much more like his best) will be the one seen more and more of, bad news for England though if he does. He really should stay in the NRL though and not get tempted by the AFL or Union $$$$ if he wants to achieve his potential.
Currently i'm more terrified at the prospect of Idris achieving his potential. A potential future centre pairing of Inglis and Idris is a nightmare prospect for England. Not counting Hayne, Justin Hodges, Willie Tonga, etc etc, they really are spoiled for choices.

Lachlan Coote isn't doing bad either at the moment.
So jealous of their backs at the moment, and I must agree Idris is going to be something, how can he have that pace with his size?
