Yeah you’re right. Hayne was at Cooma first time. He might have been 780k better off if he got sent there again.

Bit of travel to get there

jarryd would be getting familiar with the phrase,no means NO

Hayne train 😖

"Both boys [Wakeham and Laurie] are [in our plans], but time will tell what we do and how much money we spend. I’ve told the boys to play footy ... play good footy and things will work out.”

Interesting comment from Tim Sheens...

no one seems to be sooking here that we missed Koula, watched him last week,that kid will b a beast

 

[weststigers]

Benji clearly frustrated and wants to play.

I’d take that to get us through next year at this stage.

They'dve punched their lights out and Rex would've given them some Orange Juice!

Roy Masters is still around, he needs to invite those clowns to the Lidcombe Oval dressing sheds and give them a good slap around the head.

Rex would be flabbergasted.


What NRL 360 looked like 50 years ago. Rex Mossop centre and going clockwise are regular members of the panel, Col Pearce, Ferris Ashton, Noel Kelly and Alan Clarkson. Left of Rex is special guest Steve Rogers.

What about the Commonweath Bank passing competition? Wests Tigers players would own that segment after doing 200 passes every day.

They signed a heads of agreement. Lee came in with it for dessert

. . . . . . and as usual made a meal of it.

Can we replace show your stripes with tough titties. It sums us up better and I’m a big fan of alliteration.

 

[hank37w]

Agree…seems strange we can’t keep things in house till the deal is done like the Titans did…

They did with the Fulton appointment, even the football department didn't know until the deal was done.

Just goes to prove that they can do it when they want to.

Is he basically saying he’s got no control over their destiny?

The classic for me was when the board had a premature news flash that Brooks was ‘dropped from the team this weekend.’
They forgot to tell Brooks, who was left to front the media.
The coaches have done all they can, but fighting a losing battle with their bosses wanting to constantly prove they are in charge.

Blake Austin is player of the match again for Leeds this morning. He won it last week as well.
It's amazing what playing for a contract does.
Even Brooks managed his two almost adequate games for the decade playing for a contract.

He is hungry and wants to play nrl
We could do alot worse.

I’m still waiting for the forensic recruiting to kick in. When we started getting rid of our halfbacks, I thought it was part of a master plan? But now we’re trying to rehire them. 🤔

He's basically saying they're not going to be first choice and it depends who they can get in as first choice and how much that costs

Brooks played for a contract and received market rate at Manly over 4 years.

Different players, but Blake Austin would struggle to get even near Wakeham levels in today's NRL, so no thanks.

Better straws to clutch at than him.
