It's the result of him thinking he already had it all. His running game and the by-product of being allusive is what got him the big money in first grade, but he just steadfast refused to acknowledge that even with all the talent in the world, you need to keep developing. And I do mean refuse...
This is why I DO want Walsh playing Origin. Slater wasn't as erratic as Walsh, but they both shared the trait of going for low-percentage hero plays. Slater learned to get it out of his game, he needs to impart that wisdom in Reece. And having that lesson coming from one of the great fullbacks...
What a horrible fucking game to attend, I haven't been for over a year and that's what I got to witness. From where we were watching, it looked like the Broncos couldn't wrap the ball up. So many half-arse grabby tackles allowing offloads and half breaks, meaning our defence was constantly...
Someone needs to go back through ye olde games and see just how often "hip drops" occurred but the players didn't stay down because they weren't bitches. Not saying they aren't potentially dangerous, but Keppe went from crippled to try-scorer in less than 6 tackles.
TBF, what it looks like happens in the Roosters video is that they read out a comment from someone that their mum died, and for whatever reason the morons get the giggles. They are trying to keep the giggles off-camera but it just makes it worse.
More importantly, don't give them the opportunities down our end. High completion, smart kicking, and strong first contact so we win tackles and don't need to wrestle (and concede 6 against which the refs will be aching for). Our high-risk plays are suicide if the opposition isn't fatigued, earn...
18th man is a genuine chance of playing with the upgraded concussion protocols, so I genuinely think they'll have someone more versatile than Mam. Especially if Hunt is on the bench as he can cover 6, 7 or 9. Someone like Capewell who can cover forwards and backs, or Brimson who can cover 1-6...
It was that obvious, that the only other conclusion is that they were pretending. Which, considering the circumstances, would be only marginally less dumb than actually doing it.
We need to investigate whether May has been "one of the boys", and has come up the ranks with the other players for a suitable amount of time, before his punishment (if any) should be decided.
Hey, fabricate your own made-up sauce, I just made this one up last week and I haven't come close to wringing fake news out of it.
On the Roosters though, even the journos don't hide it. One on Triple M was saying on Saturday that Uncle Nick wined and dined him at the Roosters' hotel that...
The secondary concern will be the financial costs of the legal battles to get him anything but the death penalty. High stakes, high profile person earning in the millions per year, Payne's going to get fleeced.
I thought the same too. But, as a manager, I believe they take a cut of ALL earnings, whether secured by the manager or not. So he probably organised something off his own bat and bypassed the manager, and now the manager wants his cut. I say this, of course, without having read the article.
