Jesus, some of the niggling....

ATW if you're going to get into any sort of back and forth about how witty or smart you are, at least learn the correct spelling of the word "you're" in the context you use it.

*hint: an apostrophe is used to denote either a contraction or ownership. In this instance, the one between the u and the r in "you're" serves to shorten "you are", i.e. a contraction.

The word "your" is used in reference to something the person you're addressing has or owns, e.g. "Is that your car?".

So hopefully now you can see what's wrong with "peanut gallery thinks your funny".

Yes, I understand this is highly condescending, but at least you might have learnt something, and your posts are annoying, so I don't give a shit.

No more silly back and forth, thanks.
Listen… we all know you are a disciple of Sheens and trust in his every word and action.
That’s your opinion and there’s nothing wrong with that.
We also know you think Maguire was terrible.
Ok, your opinion again.
What you don’t seem to understand is that by endlessly using childish name calling it actually weakens any point you are trying to make.
I’m unsure what pleasure it brings…but there you go.
Anyways, I have always believed it’s unfair of me to enter into a battle of wits against an unarmed opponent, so I’ll leave it at this.
 
I find it funny that for all the love for Welsby there has been no mention of the fact that he dropped the bomb from Chrighton that allowed Panthers to score the late try. Had he been playing for us and that happened then the love would have turned to instant hate and he would have been crucifie.

question is St Helens won't release him so end if discussion, he could be Clive Churchill it makes no difference

Saints will release him if he wants to go and the price is right. Their junior development system is awash with talent and they have two of the best kids in the comp (Moss & Robertson) waiting in the wings. I mean, what's a top-class, game-winning playmaker worth age 21? How much do you want to win?

Kid was the best player on the pitch. By a mile. Scored one. Set the other up. Three game winning last ditch tackles (the one on Cleary was unbelievable). Should have had another assist when he put Hopoate through for a pass which looked fine to me. As for dropping that Cleary bomb. It was I think his only mistake. And plenty of superb players have had trouble with Cleary. Kid is special. So is his halfback partner - Lewis Dodd (same age).

I think Welsby would be harder to sign than Moses, and possibly for the same reasons?
It’s always been a team game. The unsung heroes of the Saints win were the guys in the middle, Roby, Siro, Walmsley etc.
It was Siro who payed on Welsby’s try.
If Saints worked him as hard as we do our FB he’d be doing more than 5 tackles in 2 games.

I think it's safe to assume there will be plenty of agents hitting the phones. I suspect the favourites will be the Dolphins. He already has a relationship with his former coach, Kristian Woolf. And they have a ton of money. Holbrook at the Titans knows him well, too. Personally, I'd rather not see him in a Roosters shirt - and DEFINITELY NOT a Bulldogs one. Two years ago I think Ricky Stuart would be in with a shout. But the way he handled young George Williams (and, to a certain extent Jon Bateman) - who proved in the World Cup he can play - maybe Canberra are out of the picture. The danger is Rusty rolls out the red carpet treatment in the same fashion as he did for the young Sammy Burgess. I imagine that might be a temptation too good to miss. But I hope you guys can see the light. If not Welsby then certainly Dodd. Trust me - he's light years ahead of Brooks. When Dodd came over a few years back he gave many good Penrith juniors a hiding. Tore them to pieces.

On the subject of Siro - the story is he had a "Come to Jesus" moment halfway through the season after an inebriated night on the town. Woolf was ... displeased ... as Kristian Woolf can only be. Challenged him to stop wasting his god-given talent and commit 100%. Since then he's been superb. Really turned his career around. Good for him.

No argument from me about how good he is. My point was if by miracle he ever came here he would have to be 100% mistake free otherwise the jackals would be out for blood.

I guess it's up to the people running the club. Like I said - how much do you want to win? I seriously doubt anyone will care if he makes the odd mistake (largely out of inexperience - he's still a kid, remember) if he turns you into a contender. He's a born winner. The type of person who would cut your throat to win at a game of Monopoly. Sign him and you're looking at ten years of contending for trophies (barring injury). It really is that simple.

Would they both consider a pkg deal? 😆 you’re the dude from UK who first brought them to my attention on here at least, months ago.
To think they have another 4 or 5 years of improvement in them is pretty exciting.
They’re both Saints juniors right?
The club has a winning reputation so it’s no surprise to see a couple of potential legends of the game grow from their system.
