Most were saying how good he was after one game and 5 tries. What was the name of that winger we had that scored five tries in a game but was generally terrible at rugby league?
Keith Lulia
This player was pretty good, everything a winger should be - super quick, strong, a great finisher from all parts of the field and prepared to put his body on the line in defence. Why wasn't he signed to a long term contract?
Yeah, but this is different. Api is getting older and wasn’t getting re-signed. Pap is a class player who was offered significantly less at his current club, so was going to most likely move club anyway. May has just debuted in a side that has the potential to be a dynasty. What incentive does he have to leave that for a club like ours?
You could see his frustration - a couple of times in the second half he threw his hands up and mouthed something after another stuff up inside him. Good to watch him suffer.
Top 8 should be sorted this weekend. Great competition.
Haha yeah. He was spoilt on the end of the Storm backline for years, now it’s reality check time. Would be funny if he lost his Origin jumper.
It will take significant improvement on the field first. Players just won’t flock because of the coach.
Will Flanno bring his needles and his bodgy accountant??????
It’s all about being realistic, not pessimistic. Some very easily confuse the two. Just put yourself in a Panthers supporters shoes. What would you think of the suggestion that your new young gun winger could be poached to the team running dead last? It’s a hard, near impossible sell.
Madge. It was all Madge.
I’m not saying we can’t attract players, but you have to take into account the circumstances. For a player like May to leave a club in the midst of a potential dynasty and come to a club like us is unfathomable.
