Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I've gotta say, as much as i think the addition of Klemmer is a good one, I really don't have a huge amount of faith in Sheens. I think we were slightly better with Hastings, than without.

Sheens traded Fifita, Gibbs and Heighno in 2011, right when we stopped playing finals football, for Adam Blair. Sacked from his last 3 coaching stints.

The club really missed a trick by not installing Todd Payten.

I would love to be wrong, but I just sense more bad decisions may lead to more pain.

In fairness, I absolutely love the look of the forward pack, but we don't have anything to write home about in the backs. We will make 60 metres a set for a Douiehi spiral, or for Brooks to put a grubber through to the shins of the opposition or kick it dead.

Have you read this place lately? Having a go at Chris saying "contribute something useful" is laughable.

I for one like he is calling fake news out. I've never understood those who say they like any "inside" info even if it isn't true. What's the point if it isn't true?

While I have no problem with how The POM operates, I do tend to think his mail is off most of the time and I certainly trust Chris in what he says. Chris has been around a long time and is proven to not toss garbage around and not engage in any crap. So if he is calling it out, it's worth taking note of.

Well I don’t.
If he’s real deal than he should not care and rely on quality of the information he provides for us to judge as to what choose to accept ….
This constant schoolyard name calling is immature rubbish that’s polluting this forum and it’s a pity that you can’t see that for what it is.

A massively overlooked thing from the end of the 2011 season we sometimes forget, imo the biggest reason for the 2012 disaster was that moron Robert Lui belting his missus in the off season and being sacked by the club. We lost the halfback who we finished in the top 4 with twice, with him around Benji could just play eyes up footy and won the golden boot, Benji was dynamic. After Lui was sacked Benji tried to fill the organiser role but struggled. Lui was the one responsible imo for that shocking 2012 season.

Yeah it really did hurt us - he had a career year in 2011 as well. Huge against the dragons in the preliminary final, but a benji kick out on the full in the last 10 minutes cost us dearly.

We still nearly won that game on the final play, if only Beau Ryan looked inside instead of kicking...

Calm down. I think I noted how bad this place is, so i clearly see the pollution on this forum.

I'm making the point that if you want to start addressing it, Chris is hardly the target. I have 5 current posters on ignore, something that I've never done in 12 years. Call those constant and continuous trouble makers out. Won't get you anywhere though, they are the low breed
 
I really cant say anything about the Pom,Cloudy,cctw or anyone else that gives info out on the forum,firstly I dont known them,I dont know their particular sources and I can only read the info with interest and see what develops...
I as many contribute on here for the love of Rugby league having played it many years ago and the love of the WTs...
I do like having my opinion on numerous threads,eg.Hastings going to Newy...in my opinion not knowing him personally,but what he bought to this teams on field performances was what impressed me the most,his leadership and footy smarts...
I have many times had beers at Wests Campo with many locals,they have cast their opinion about what happens at times in the WTs club and speak as if they are in the know,if I wanted to I could come on here and post"I heard yesterday that xx is coming to WTs he is unhappy at xx he is what we need",I would make a false claim not knowing the guy having beers or the truth of his info,once again it becomes an assumption...
So I say I heard from a good source,who really is spilling crap to me with a gut full of piss and expects me to believe him then and there..
We should all just take it as some form of info,but take it as that and not the Gospel truth until something positive comes out to back that info...but most of all keep civil to one another as this is only a game and friendship in person or online is more value to us than some argument that may have no solid content whatsoever....
