G'day @Geo: I'm really pleased that I often give you something to wonder about :fa-smile-o:
Once we stop wondering and dreaming, we have nothing to live for :santa: :satellite_antenna: :shark: :snowman: :stadium: :turkey: :christmas_tree: .

@Jimmy Not clear on why the club would sign Brittain when they have three first grade hookers in Reynolds, Walters and Liddle (when he recovers).

Liddle won't be playing NRL in 2020. Every conceivable issue you could have with your knee, he has. Shocking news

Please enlighten us?

I can't remember who mentioned and whether it was or wasn't on the Forum , but heard they found it was far worse after surgery than initially suspected

Oh my.

The injury on the field looked bad and I thought ACL, but from memory he did hyper extend it due to the contact Sounds like it was very similar to the Slade Griffen one in 2018... hopefully youth is on his side for the recovery, as Slade just announced his retirement due to his injury at 29.

As terrible as it is, if Liddle is done for 2020, it's time to move on and find a more permanent solution or find a half decent one until Simpkin comes on.

I think Liddle is a talent but Christ almighty is he made of tissue and spit...

Couldn't agree more. Time to cut our losses with Liddle.

G'day @GNR4LIFE: thanks for giving me a lead-in for my post.

I don't recall anyone suggesting our colours should be black and white and/or saying they would be happy if our colours were black and white only, anywhere in the 1000's of posts I have read.

I'm surprised and disappointed you have re-hashed this.

This stopped being funny 7 months ago :white_frowning_face: .

All the warning signs were there and we signed him.
I just hope we are not heading for the swamp again?

We shouldn't have re-signed him. Luckily it was only 2 years.

Agree CB. Might explain Billy Brittain being at Concord this week

poor kid with his injuries and potentially losing his footy career....I hope the Tigers are organizing pathways for him outside of footy

 

[Go_You_Good_Things]

@GNR4LIFE I'm sure Wests Ashfield wouldn't be complaining either.

@OzLuke agree with this yet can't agree with all the just get rid of them (re😛layer injuries) posts. These players injure themselves whilst playing for our club and we hold the responsibility of rehabilitating them. Don't people understand that our facilities aren't up to scratch and regardless of who we sign, they will also most likely encounter similar problems (ala JR) hence also the same facilities.

I agree with this, but there has to be other pathways the club can offer the kid to make a career of something else? get Lawrence in his ear and guide him along

 

[TheDaBoss]

I like Britain

The billy kind, not the brexit kind

 

[Russell]

@trentrunciman mate if we sign LM and brown we are a big chance on craking the 8, also if packer steps up and talua comes of age, we will be a chance of actually making a dent in finals

I wouldn't hold my breath about Packer, he's finished and if anyone can't see that they have zero football knowledge

He ain't finished by a long shot Baby!

Do you think hell get himself fit enough for Madge to play him?

As far as I know he has signed for 2 years and will be back the later part of 2020.

We have known this for awhile, what is the problem then?

Absolutely - he'll be ready to go.

With the highway to Taree being closed, I reckon the coffee shops and particularly the bakery in Gloucester, would be doing a great trade.

My sister has a place at Gloucester....how good is the Gloucester bakery.....

7 news claims we are after Cody walker as well

Reports his knee is worse than thought and could be gone all season now
