some interesting teams. It will be cool to watch some of the unknown players running around .... it wont be so fun to watch Joel Reddy playing for Souths though ... he runs like he is stuck in concrete, the worst possible skill for a 9's player
well I'm sure they would prefer to lose 400k rather than lose Smith .... but they would still be upset about losing cap space. That space could have been used on another player they needed, like a better five-eight or another prop
he really has. my jaw hit the ground when I heard about the Idris signing and he's got a tonne of depth elsewhere
But I reckon Gould messed up his halves a bit .... the Penrith halves for 2013 were better

I'm not looking...
I hadn't really thought about this and I don't think lots of other people have either. Yow Yeh would almost be starting from scratch when he does return
Kahu isn't the worst option I've heard for five-eight. he looks like he is more of a natural fullback/five-eight than a centre/winger.
I just wish there was more of an opportunity to trial him properly before the 2014 season.
I've always thought that by the time someone dedicates themselves to reffing at that level they probably would be over biases towards certain clubs, states etc.
I reckon you're more likely to see biases among NRL referees towards individual players or teams. For example, I can see how a referee...
the fact that it pours petrol on the fire isn't Hoffman's prob though.
maybe Hoffman leaves, maybe he doesn't ... but either way, I find it a bit odd that fans are whipping themselves into a frenzy and then blaming Hoffman for not coming out and setting their minds at ease. As much as we want...
Re: [RUMOUR] Anthony Milford to Broncos
That can't be true, 70% of all tries sounds silly.
I thought the stats i had seen said that in 2013 our left and middle defence conceded about the same amount of tries. And our right side conceded 50% of all the points against us, which definitely...
like others have posted, I'm not going to celebrate Hoffman leaving and I'm not hoping that the door hits him on the way out.
He's a born and bred Bronco and I want those kind of players to stick around. Even if the rumours are true and he is disgruntled, he always tried hard and he always...
so far Morkel has called Stuart a liar, a hypocrite, a fraud, an idiot and has repeatedly brought up Stuart's stubbornness and arrogance. and even when he could have just criticised Stuart for bad selections (re Hayne), it still becomes a criticism of Stuart's two-faced nature.
I don't see how...
the other answer could be that he avoiding promoting halves like the plague because there were none coming through. For him to promote a young half and develop him, there had to be one in the Flegg team or in the reserve grade team ... at the Roosters and Sharks I don't think there were any.
If...
