Quote: jamie_fc_3 "Gareth Carvell has gone, and we haven't got an adequate replacement. He was our main go forward guy imo.

Just as Briscoe was our rock, we never replaced him, and just as Cooke was the playmaker we never replaced him.

We will struggle to reach the heights we have seen in recent years unless we strengthen instead of taking steps back.'"


To true.

Quote: Maxi Mc "I thought our pack were poor last night. Only Kingy when he came on ruffled a few feathers. I agree with a previous poster about the interchanges. Give them shorter spells so they can be a bit more in. Thought Radford was poor last night.'"
How much we have missed the Crocker signing.

Cuddle Club Rules 1. You dont talk about Cuddle club 2. YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT CUDDLE CLUB!!!! PS3 tag = Robbo_4444:20348.jpg



I always find this odd. Our pack did fine in terms of making yards down the middle as it usually does. The main problem is the painfully slow PTB and how clueless we are attacking the line.

Burnett showed alot of aggression, especially when they got lomax into touch in the southwest corner and he was right in Gidley's face

Very good point about our pack, they just don't lay any sort of platform for the likes of Berrigan, Horne, Thorman to play off (which is why we don't score any tries). Take Dowes for example, I really don't get what people see in him, fair enough he works hard, he plays nearly all the game blah blah blah... but I fail to see how this is actually a good thing? Props should be big, mean, aggressive ba$t@rds that break the line and play 15-20min stints repetetively. Who the hell wants an '80 minute prop'? When does Dowes EVER break the line, offload, etc? Never is the answer and although King and Thackery arent exactly perfect, at least when they come on they give us abit of impact. I look forward to seeing Manu, Lauaki, and hopefully a new prop all play together next season, then we might actually have a pack worth boasting about.. but until then, the likes of Dowes, Radford, Cusack just arent what we require imo.

It's pretty obvious what our pack needs but between Peter Blunt and Agar, they have given contracts to Radford, King and Dowes for next season, and now they're even talking about Cusack's new contract !!

It totally baffles me !!!

Agreed, when it was revealed that we had started talks with Cusack about a new contract my jaw hit the floor.

It seems that we prefer forwards who work hard without actually doing what they're supposed to.

Graham Cayliss Fasav'lau (sp) Puletua etc..

Ryles Carlaw Ferriol Fakir Croker etc..

Morley Carvell Rauhihi Wood etc..

Peacock Leului Lautiti etc..

Cusack Dowes Radford King ??? Thackray and Manu are our only forwards with any go-forward ability at all.

Someone needs to grow a pair of b0ll0cks and get rid of most of the $hite that is in our pack.

Think you could add Vella, Fozzard, Newton and Galea to that list, far better than we have.

did anyone see NQ cowboys against souths this morn? the cowboys had 2 big ruff buggers up front, scott & tronc, not big names but big hard foookers backed up by o'donnell (who squared upto crocker btw) and a kid called bolton? theres plenty of talent around,not big names, just blokes you need when the goin gets ruff and mongrel the opposition.

our problem is we have no contacts in oz who watch these type of players week in week out in the NRL, we sign blokes who come for their payday as its the easy option. the last kid we signed who was a no namer was probably colin best at the time.

Well said. Absolutely spot on in my opinion.

If you are not part of the solution then you are more likely part of the problem...:



Peter Sharp did name Jamie Soward as a potential signing back in 2007.

Now how good would that have been?
