One of the halves ripping it up for leigh is josh drinkwater who I said,we inquired about him but he wasn't interested in a 6 month contract.I said at the time we should have said thanks alot terry sort him a coaching job and sign drinkwater,no room for sentiment in sport.Maybe we may not have been in this situation now !

I know your a big fan of drinkwater but I don't think he's anything special ripping it up in the championship is a bit different to doing it in SL I think I'd rather we go for Soward

Totally agree with you about Jamie Sward, Frankie. Josh Drinkwater is none too shabby either. Travis Burns, enough said.

Jamie soward would be fine by me as well,the whole point I was making was basically anybody other than campese would be fine.We all know campese has been a great player but time catches up with us all.Canberra knew what high risk the guy become he had been a terrific ambassador for canberra throughout australia,winning awards for his work in the community.You dont let somebody that valuable go without good reason and ricky stuart had dropped him down to playing for the mount pritchard mounties,as he had lost form completely.In the 1st dozen or so matches we saw what he was capable of,but the injuries he has suffered from for the last few seasons came back to haunt him,a similar situation to mick weyman and you have to say enough is enough,which mick weyman did to his eternal credit.Its a shame but despite his will to keep on playing terrys body has let him down,sad but fact.

I think Leeds and hudds though are genuinely poor, I know people except them to improve but I am not sure.

To be fair Des You stuck to your guns about Campese and was right in the end but I think the clubs hands were tied regarding what went on with his contract

I don't see Rovers as a real contender for relegation, even without your talisman you have proved at Cas,home versus Leeds and against us,in two matches this year that without him you are capable and hard to beat, for any SL opposition and would have far too much for any lower league team. I seriously think Huddersfield may be the team most likely to go down, there is definitely something not right within a team that boasts their depth of talent. I hope so anyway, however bitter we are towards each other, SL as an entity and both teams need the prospect of close , high pressure derby games in order to break the monopoly that the successful teams have enjoyed of late.

Frankie,,nothing would have given me more pleasure than for me to be wrong,and campese help lift us into the super 8s,but after14 years of hammer in the nrl the body cant take it anymore,weyman and campese are 2 perfect examples of that.

Superalf.Good post mate.

If am honest I hope u get beat every week. But would I want u to go down. NO. So there lies the conundrum lol.

We haven't played Leeds at home yet, should I put money on us?

Frankie..We have Drinkwater and he's ready to rip you up..Who do you have?

They're about to announce the signing of dennis ripyouup, a papuan international half back. If you think drinkwater will rip you up wait until you see dennis

You should stick to painting.

Blair and Kelly but then again we played you with no half backs last year and won if memory serves me right
