I expect us to be competitive, but better than another 8 sides to make the finals? mmm…. not so much.

Well it is looking a lot better than it did 4 weeks ago. If you subscribe to the 50% plus 1 to scrape into the 8 Wests are now already in a position where they only have to win 10 of their remaining 21 games to make the finals.

Now add in that we have played 3 teams expected finish well in front of us at the end of the season and things look even more rosy.

Geez man, that was back in October last year… How long did it take you to dig that up? and why? I've certainly changed that perspective.

You would have been a brave man to call us a top 8 side before round 1!
 
Michael Jennings is one of the laziest footballers there is, isn’t prepared to dig in when the going gets tough!

When he’s on he’s on fire, but I guess that goes with the right coaching…. did Cleary get rid of Jennings when he was at Penrith or was that someone else?

I’d rather pay 500k to gutho and play him at centre

Cleary was definitely the Penrith coach who booted Jennings, and if i recall there was abit of bad blood there at the end.

That's good

We don't have to worry about the tiger's possibly chasing him than
 
Not sure how old he is these days, but Uate is being shopped around due to Manly's salary cap problems.

He's 30…and we already have guys like Nofo and Fonua who aren't getting a run in first grade.

Edit: Roosters might look to get him so they don't have to run out Reece Robinson while Tupou is unavailable. Reece Robinson is just an awful player...
 
Highly doubt Jennings would happen, Ivan already released him for not being worth what he was being paid in 2013 at the Panthers.

"Jennings on Tuesday was released from the final three years of his Panthers contract, reportedly worth $650,000 a season, with Cleary claiming it was because the New South Wales State of Origin centre was not providing value for money."

Apologies. I am a victim of some sort of glitch. When I posted my reply, your post was showing as the most recent on the thread :frowning:
