We're running over the same old ground.....

🤣🤣

I wouldn't mind offering Pacheco the fullback role at this point.

Now here’s another name I have never heard, who is he and what’s his story ?

Plan B = Benji lacing up

Some would think it's a good idea

Wish you were here !

Mitchell Pearce for one year after watching the trial - could think of worse options.

Sounds more like plan Z .

Just won the superbowl

Just read Pearce has another year to run on his contract in France but still saying interested in a return to the NRL but will be 35 in 2024.
Was in Sydney over Xmas and had lunch with Uncle Nick from the Roosters.
Can’t see any chance he would be with us this year , (and I personally think that’s good).

Sorry, didn’t watch the game so his name means nada to me l,but thanks for clarification.

35 isn't scary but pearce at 35 is scary

 

[Halbrowne61]

35 isn't as scary as it used to be....
Like DCE is pushing 35....

Although, For Pearce I think it is - He's been basically a full time NRL player since he was 17.
Where as a guy like DCE started a little later.

No, but I think if you start seeing 35 year olds as saviours you’re reading the game wrongly.

I can only guess they are talking about the NFL player from the SuperBowl

I think Wakeham can do what Madden could but he does not have the same ambition that Jock had. I think he knows he's a NSWC player, Jock did not.
Brandon had a shocker on the weekend, but he also had some moments (40/20 was pin point) and he has only been here for a couple of weeks, not fair to judge him on 1 trial.

That assumes Josh was fit enough to play (I'm assuming the coach doesn't talk tactics with the Rehab Group) or he didn't get a tad chilly sitting on the sidelines AGAIN! If I was Josh and my life was the shitshow his was I'd probably just sit quietly in the corner hoping no-one noticed me.

He played quite a bit for Wests, and Brooks and Doueihi could easily have been dropped on form

Nowra is not in Illawarra, Paws

Yes he played for the Steelers.

Not me, I was dead against giving him a second year on his comeback, the third year was a diabolical decision, surely we don't go back to that well, we are already the laughing stock of the NRL

I forget. Is Pearce the Bubbler Bandit or The Doggy Didler?

Got a friend close to the dogs club and he has told me multiple times Wakeham will never be a consistent first grader.

... starting to see why.
