I’m going to ask a sneaky question. If Packer keeps going the way he’s going, do we re-sign him at the end of next year. Reduced contract obviously, but we could get another couple years out of him.


I doubt he would take a minimum contract

It wouldn’t be minimum.

It’s not a case or either or. There is middle ground.

A veteran on say 300/350 a season is a good earner for your family.. especially with overseas options off the table !

Packer is with us for another years so Ihope he doesnt loose his aggression as enforcer.

The crusher doesn't need to part of his repertoire

We need an old head to lead our young fowards around.
Next year is his last on this contract so I think he will be in for a big year so he can re-sign with us.

You fell for the media hype also that was no crusher. He is side on and his hand makes contact with the head and neck. The motion looks bad but that was milked.

No need for that dropping of his weight motion. He had no control of where he was gonna land, it's just boneheaded action. Way too dangerous to let it slide.

Great post TYGA, Parra were milking for so called crushers all game and they should be called out for it! All their players back into the tackles and grab their heads, but bounce straight to their feet when the whistle is blown?
Rewarded for crying wolf, they should be embarrassed for playing like that!
Call the cheats out!
 
That was a classic crusher tackle and I think one week is more than fair for that. I expected worse. Looked like clear intent and unnecessary. Not just an accident in my opinion.

The hit up on matterson was absolutely quality hit up. Anyone saying there's anything even remotely dodgy in that hasn't watched rugby league. Even that headline by the mole is sensationalising it beyond reason. That's just strong running and just about every forward hits it up with the same action. Really pisses me off that people who are paid to write about rugby league manage to write such ignorant stuff. Ordinary work, mole.

Unfortunately it’s become a theme in a few games. We are being penalised for taking teams down hard and playing physical. The game is soft it’s why we need better players to finesse victories and win with athleticism rather than aggression. Outside backs are key in our recruitment we need easy points. We fight way too hard to win.
