Call me old fashioned but I've never liked NSW rep players playing for QLD clubs, I'd look elsewhere if I were the Bronco's.
And thats apart from the fact he's dreaming if he thinks he'll land $500,000 contract in this country.
ESL for sure but not in the NRL.
Farah open to $500,000 offers
By James Hooper
November 16, 2008 WESTS Tigers star Robbie Farah is expected to command offers of up to $500,000 a season after signalling his intent to test his value on the NRL's open market.
In a warning sign for the Tigers, Farah told The Sunday Telegraph his...
Yeah I agree, whats the point putting two 100kilo superstar monsters on one edge and leave the other with a couple of 80kilo rookies (not that michaels is a rookie but you get my point). You want oposition teams just as fearfull on each side of the field close to the line, that way if their...
I now prefer to refer to him warmly as "Steve Turn-Style" after his defence in origin this year.
Definetly overated, he's been just living it up playing at the edge of an amazing Storm pack the last couple years, I'd like to see how he'd go at a more raw team where he had to actually create...
5 years as coach of any NRL team these days is great. You won't see anouther 20 year coaching stint in our lifetime trust me. NRL is big business, loyalty is at a second tier to results. Any coach no matter how good they are if the team misses the finals a few years in a row can expect to start...
You can only asume management wanted a fresh start post Bennant. A clean out some of the cob webs aproach to feshen the place up a little.
I'd expect locky to spend at least a year or 2 as an assistant coach before he takes on the head role. As good as I know he will be as a coach I don't want...
Warriors definete top 4 material next year, and if you check the odds at the TAB I'd be pretty sure they are still paying well, I'd put a ten'r on them now for a nice return!
They must be desperate to release on or two of their halves now, no team wants that many cap dollars tied up in halves...
Folau could be a forward
By Matt Marshall
November 13, 2008 HE is arguably the world's best back, but superstar Brisbane recruit Israel Folau says he wouldn't be surprised if he ends his career as a damaging, wide-running back-rower.
Only 19 and with his body yet to fully develop, Folau admits...
Te'o double inspires Samoa win
By Tamara Mclean
November 09, 2008 SAMOAN second-rower Ben Te'o made a blistering World Cup debut with two tries as his side thrashed France 42-10 at CUA Stadium.
The result secured Samoa ninth place and handed France the unlucky wooden spoon in the 10-team...
I'm confident about the new guys, Teo and Setu definetly seam on the up and I'm glad they have both had a good run in the RLWC, Teo picked up two tries against France the other night which is awesome for a forward. I recon he's the next generation Lock perfect replacement for Tonza just as long...
Come on buddy you obviously know someone who's in the know, drop us a hint, I won't tell a soul...
Hang on let me guess, locky will anounce a 2010 super league deal once the RLWC finishes???
The most important thing to keep in mind here is which position will be most essential as part of a long term plan after the enevitable departure of locky.
Wallace clearly is the dominant playmaker of the future. He is the direct replacement for locky as far as playmakers go.
Hodges and folau...
While yes we've lost a few big names for next year I think a few of you guys are underestimating the value of some of the new recuits coming on board next year,
Lagi Setu managed 26 offloads this year, thats 5 more then the highest rating Bronc for the year. With the evasive skill of our...
