Blake Austin

[mtd]

miller wasnt given a fair go..
4 first grade games is hardly enough time to determine the quality of a young bloke..

 

[happy_tiger]

Happy….youre comparing Austen to probably the best halfback in the world right now

unfair

No I was comparing DCE to where they were at similar stages of their careers

Don't worry ,I didn't see where DCE would be in such a short period of time either

I just don't see the same drive or the look in his eye that DCE has or had

Hope I've got it as wrong as I had it with him as well

He is absolutely rubbish at Hull, he's no lose at all.

 

[magpiecol]

Got a lot of improving to do before even thinking about first grade

True, hopefully we can see a combo formed similar to dce and foran.

A gamble was taken on them as well.

DCE killed it week in week out in Qld Cup

There lays the difference Consistancy

Good point ….. The results are there for all to see.

Consistent?

That's why the Broncos and the Nth Qld Cowboys did not want a bar of him.

Manly gave him a chance and bingo. Could be the same with our new 5/8.

 

[LaT]

In DCEs last stint of QLD Cup, he was contracted to Manly, they were the ones who sent him there for experience. Its why they let Hodkinson go.

 

[happy_tiger]

This isn't a Qld v NSW comment but the Qld Cup has been much stronger than the NSW Cup

Obviously that will change when we have an entire reserve grade comp in NRL

Don't get me wrong, cos this guy interests me, but this kid is worthy of a 10 page thread, really?

Probably yes GNR ,if he succeeds or fails will have some effect on our season

 

[steve-o]

Certainly not worthy of a 10 page thread when you consider he was behind Isaac john at the panthers. I'll be very surprised if he's in our first grade squad come round 1

Blake wont be our starting 5/8 next year. Its obvious, everyone is just hoping. This quote makes it pretty obvious that Anasta will be in the team

“We’ve got Robbie Farah and Braith Anasta as the senior players and they really are our leaders around the park. Luke Brooks, Mitchell Moses and Joel Luani are amongst the young players that are coming through who have 2013 under their belt and will be better players for it. We have got plenty of direction there," Potter

Some of you may be thinking Anasta can play in the backrow, I dont think Potter is thinking the same when he has:

Patterson
Sue
Masila
Fulton
Blair
Galloway
Woods
Tapau
Seamunafangi
Buchanan
Brown
Vela
Thomson
Fiagatusa
Lovett
Naiyavaro
Gavet
Fine

All fighting for 9 positions in one team, I get the feeling that Potter will be looking at size for next year and Naiyavaro may make a surprise move to the backrow. All I can see is good luck to Blake but doubt he will get the nod no matter how well he plays in NSW Cup unless there is an injury.

Its the off season, we have an opening in our halves, and Austin played deep into finals for the Wolves. Thats pretty much the reason for 10 pages.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

Can always rely on LaT to address my concerns :slight_smile:

We have the bat signal, someone oughta create the LaT signal

I posted in this thread about 20 minutes before you and am now just carrying on with the conversation as it flows. Seriously, whats your issue with people replying to each other on a forum like this?

I comment in plenty of threads, you are not my focus. You don't enter into my thought process when I come here.

I could have just as easily been replying to steve-o or Happy Tiger who also commented on the 10 page length. But you single yourself out as special, why do you feel that way? Its not healthy.

So lets put a stop to it, what do you say? If you feel victimised because someone replied in "your thread", PM a mod. Don't contnually allude to some sort of non existent agenda.

C'mon you are always seem to be attacking someone LaT

You were getting skirty at me the other day for having a go at you

Goes both ways I guess

I've often wondered how forums would be if everyone presented their opinions anonymously.

Can you honestly agree with Axl that me commenting about a 10 page thread, after you and steve-o had done the same, was somehow an attack on this guy? It just screams persecution complex to always cry when I voice an opinion in the same vicinity as him. Its sad.

And I wasn't having a go at you, at least not in the way you are intimating. You were going pretty hard on a topic that seems to rub you the wrong way. I'll openly admit to doing the same thing, I try to limit/cutback though, I certainly don't hold myself as some sort of model poster thats for sure.

Plus you have to remember that just because someone disagrees with you, and voices that opinion, doesn't automatically mean they are attacking you, wouldn't you agree Happy?

 

[Milky]

I agree with Lat, there are some of us on this forum that are singled out for everything we say. This is a forum for gods sake, I think if all the members here were 6 years old there would be less drama.

AX you will always have a special place in my heart for the months and months you spent hunting down my old posts purely to down vote them when we had the rep system!
