Onya Bateman!

[softlaw]

An actual hard nosed effort based footballer.
Stupidly hot day, first game in Australia in a few years and never stopped.
A bit of aggro and a lot of effort - hopefully some of the others who regularly make zero effort were watching.

He was so good. Well done son.

Yep I like the way the bloke goes , he will be an asset , I know there are a few here who don’t like him , but that’s all about choice

 

[oldschooltiger]

Great first game.

Him, Klemmer and Offa are great leaders for the pack moving forward

I watched Bateman closely to-day & thought he played very well, will be a very good acquisition.

You can scratch Offa, offa that list, he’s got nothing !

No Star, but he has a go and expects the same from others

Usually I’d agree - but I thought Joffa was flat as all fik today…

Sorry, imo he’s crap, been saying that for 6 months. His best days are well behind him. Never breaks a tackle or sets up a play.
Why do you think he jumped at a longer term contract, never look a gift horse in the mouth.
Job security coz he knew no one else would want him.

Good game from Bateman. A professional's game and to think many on the forum were doubting his quality. I'm glad we have him aboard to teach our younger forwards.

Great first game.

Especially with the black heat-seeking jerseys - who decided to wear that outfit on the hottest day of the century.

Wait till he’s played a few games and has the confidence to get into his team mates for not trying as hard as him that’s when we will see him at his best. So happy we managed to get him over here

I thought Offa was poor today.
