You got this info from where exactly as your club website disagrees with your stats, unless, of course, you are a thicko who cant work a centimetre to inch convertor!!!!!!!
Anyway, in answer to your complete b@llocks, 5 of your 6' 4" (sic) players are fringe players at best and the others include 3 backs in Cooke, Walker and Colborn, not quite so threatening when you its put like that now is it!!!!! |

HULL KINGSTON ROVERS is my religion, Craven Park is my church and Jordan Abdull is my God: |
|
| Quote: Mrs Barista "FC actively chose to pay Dykes off though and therefore needed to compensate him.
Joel Clinton asked to be released from his contract though. Why would they agree to it and pay him compensation as well? Makes no sense.
Joel Clinton is on the verge of quitting Brisbane Broncos after sounding out the club about the prospect of an immediate release to play overseas.
Brisbane chief executive Bruno Cullen confirmed the formal offshore interest on Saturday night.
Clinton is off-contract at the end of 2010 but fears he is unwanted for 2011 after two indifferent years at the Broncos.
The 27-year-old is Brisbane's highest-paid forward on $275,000 a season.
Should the Broncos agree to a release, it would free-up room in the salary cap for the club to launch a major recruitment drive for 2011.
Cullen said the club would consider releasing Clinton if they believed it was in the forward's best interests.
"I've spoken to Joel's manager and he asked if Joel got a good deal going forward, would we consider letting him go," Cullen said.
Signed on the recommendation of Broncos legend Shane Webcke for the 2008 season, Clinton has endured a tumultuous stint at Red Hill.
In June, Clinton was fined $50,000 for breaching team rules by bringing a woman back to his hotel room and he played just 24 minutes in the Broncos' season-ending loss to Melbourne Storm.
While Clinton's departure would give the Broncos clout on the open market, Cullen said the club would never try to force him out.
"We'd be a bit light on for front-rowers (if Clinton left) but we've got no plan at all to sign a replacement. Joel is a nice fella and a really good bloke. If he's here next year so be it," Cullen said.
"There are examples of us letting guys go for their benefit.
"David Stagg was supposed to be a part of our plans for 2009 but then Canterbury came up with a better offer for him and we respected that."
In that case I apologise and he is getting payed to fish

I honestly dont get this at all, The club have signed the player (fact, Joel himself as told me) but the club will not announce it until he is actually here and his visa has come through - they obviously dont want to make mistakes of other clubs last season. I just dont get how people dont understand this...

If you just fight terrorism, it's based in fear. If you promote peace, it's based in hope:26336.gif |

What was wrong with announcing the signing subject to a successful visa application, instead of Morgan spouting rubbish about if he was available we'd be interested in signing him, when he had already signed?

Surely it isn't the coach's responsibility to announce signings. |
