With apologies to our female readers ... but ... Women are like NRL clubs. From 18 to 30, they're like the Penrith Panthers - hot and exotic. From 30 to 45, they’re like the Melbourne Storm - fully explored and free with they're resources. From 45 to 55, they’re like the Wests Tigers -...
This hotch-potch of ex-players getting fat on past glory and news hacks earning a buck by consistently tossing red herrings around like confetti have no idea what goes on behind closed doors at Red Hill. Quotes like "Broncos are going under", "take years to recover from this" and "I've got mail...
Sam Ayoub, obviously short-changed on his pound of flesh, yelling that the club "have done nothing but kick him (Dearden) from pillar to post" .. what is it with these people, Dearden's not (imho) NRL level yet, nowhere near it. If kicking from pillar to post means trying him out in the NRL side...
I like to think I'm an intelligent person, that I have a few "smarts" about me but I'm starting to wonder if there's some kind of secret agenda here .. some devilish master-plan that us dumbass fans can't see or understand .. lulling the entire NRL community into a false sense of security while...
I'm f#####g heartbroken ... 1988, this fine club was founded and I was there watching them train before a ball had been thrown in anger ... watched the very first outings against Canberra and the New Zealand President's XIII ... watched them thump Manly in their first NSWRL outing and have...
I reckon we should give the guy his shirt ... let him loose on the paddock ... and see how he shapes up before we start bagging him. I've been watching him playing for the Devils and he's a goer.
Guess that makes me an "idiot" (a fact that's never really been in question) ... any more "idiots" in here buying tickets? .. like .. you know .. investing in the club we (hopefully) love.
Badel and Dobbin ... the "Dumb and Dumber" of sports journalism ... maybe Kev's just indulging in some pre-season mind games, keep Brad Arthur guessing :)
At the risk of putting my hand in the fire I'm just gonna toss in a comment about Isaako ... no one seems to be cutting him just a bit of slack for the personal issues he had last year, I know we all have to deal with these things in our lives and just carry on, but anyone who says that it...
Supposing his comments were of a racist nature ... would the same rule apply, or would we just put that down to "something he said" and move on .. I think not.
I get that ... but there's no evidence we haven't turned it around. My point is more about the futility of predicting anything with the coach and player carousel that runs full tilt at this time of year ... seems like a pointless exercise to me.
My meaning was that Stagg's is not letting his mummy handle his affairs. They're all free to "up and move to Sydney" if the mood takes them and contractual obligations allow it ( I just laughed at my own comment that contracts actually mean anything these days )
Hopefully this is the right spot for this ... has anyone ever thought of compiling a thread of the lame-ass predictions that so-called pundits make before the season even starts ... then reviewing said predictions at season's end and jamming 'em down the throats of aforementioned "pundits" in...
**** me !! maybe we should just line up every piece of young talent we have on the footpath outside the Clive Berghofer Centre and let all these freakin' pirates just do a kerbside pick-up like the garbos do.
No .. Nope .. Never .. more baggage than Louis Vuiton and, maybe it's just me, but I don't think I've ever seen the guy put in a solid 80 minutes of effort.
