Yep, he would've made 150 meters and was the best forward with the ball when they utterly dominated us.

edwahu

I reckon everything Gus says is part of some sort of 4D chess move so you can't take his comments at face value.

edwahu

I was only half serious but it's not that simple because of backloading and front loading plus all of the loopholes. We seem to be the only club incapable of finding extra money to get these players when it's needed. Even in this case, it's 400k year one which would be covered by Lui & Abbey, and w...

Eels are apparently trying to sign George Burgess before kick off. Maybe we can offload Lui and Abbey quickly and the Pommy blokes can get in his ear? Not taking full freight on his contract for the first year then 700k / year after (to match the eels). That's too much for Gurgess. 600k a season av...

So who ended up winning last year?

You could just put 2019 tbh

I'm not convinced about Jack at 6. He stunk it up last time. I really hope he he plays brilliantly this time. Sent from my SM-G960F using The Greenhouse mobile app powered by Tapatalk I agree Dubs. I know he was less experienced but he didn't look suited to 6 at the time. Given our outside back iss...

edwahu

The question I have is did he now comply? Or you can just not comply and cop a punishment.

edwahu

Paulo was posted on here as signed in September and I believe Mulholland signed in November. I'd give him credit for Havilli and Oldfield, who were good value signings. John Bateman is also a very good signing even if he doesn't come off. All in all our recruitment would be bottom 2 in the league si...

edwahu

I wonder whether he watches the game based on those comments. It's 5 years since he regularly played 40 minutes a game and he plays less minutes than Boyd. That's our recruitment manager ladies and gentleman.. What’s Mulholland's record as a recruitment manager? From memory he came after all our ‘g...

edwahu

I would've preferred Boyd to stay over Paulo. The latter just can't defend for 30 minutes without getting lazy at marker, Boyd was much better in that regard.

edwahu

Not sure how anyone can be optimistic about this year tbh. How's our squad any stronger than last year? Agree losing Paulo & Boyd is a godsend. Never rated either. Still look very thin up front though. Reality is a 32 yr old journeyman will most likely be 1 of our starting props. No one really know...

I’d take Kasiano. One 20 minute stint covering either side of halftime is all we need. Low money replacement for Boyd and Paulo.

I think if we are saying our strategy is mobility it doesn't make sense to replace those two.

edwahu

One for Ferrett or Summit. I noticed that the Team Kickers (E.g Broncos Goals, Raiders Goals) are in the player list. Does this mean they are turned on by default already for this comp? http://www.nrlceo.com/new-feature-team-kickers/ Same goes for needing to add locks, this seems to be already done....

edwahu

I’m very concerned about the halves combo. Wighton’s a victim of his overall talent and ability to competently play almost anywhere, but he has only really looked world class at Centre, which we continue to ignore. His first stint at 5/8th was a fail. I can’t get excited about his second one coming...

if they don't shine at the storm where will they?

If you look at their recruiting I think the idea Bellamy gets a lot out of average & unknown players is a bit of myth. Our record would be better in that regard.

edwahu

Storm have put Kasiano, Blair and Patrick Kaufusi on the market. Mulholland was also wrapping Kasiano this morning in an NRL article

edwahu

I've got a feeling rapana will be back a bit earlier than scheduled, hence why they haven't used the money they got from the NRL, is there any reports on his rehab anywhere ? Sent from my SM-J530Y using The Greenhouse mobile app powered by Tapatalk No, but there was an article where he stated he is...

Cool. So here is the Draft order for round 1: The Banana Hammocks Munster Mongrels Purtells Turtles Pottsies Vikings GH Hail Sezer The Gum Drops Golden Points Sir McSquid's Squad LimeGreenMachines Chicken Feets Sheriff GH Manchild's Club Just a reminder it's a 26 round Snake Draft, so the order will...

edwahu

One question on draft order, does it randomize again when I start the draft? Or is it the order that's listed in the manager screen.

Wow, no Liu, maybe he has fallen down the pecking order with Guler/Horsburgh/Murchie impressing.....

Maybe he is getting FPNd. It would be pretty odd to give him a decent 3 year deal and drop him/ship him off a few months later though.

Well there you go. Lots of players who can't possibly play first grade. Hopefully if they are used it's as a unit and they don't come heavily into the first grade rotation.
In the video from the article they're looking to get 60mins out of the strongest squad.

Good to hear, thanks.

edwahu

Surely Starling won't play, he is not in the first grade squad. It would be a waste of a spot. I'd hope that the starting spine except hooker play nearly the whole game. Giving someone like Williams some time just seems like a waste to me, since we know what he will bring if he comes into the side a...

edwahu

I think losing Milford was an outcome of the same toxic club culture that ultimately cost furner his job. There was a time that Milford went on record saying he wants to be a raider for life. The club wasn't a happy unit in 2013. I dont think any player would have stayed in those circumstances. I t...

edwahu

Yep, no worries.

edwahu

I'd like to see the top 17 as the side with 2 extra middle forwards on the bench. No experimenting with the spine positions.

edwahu

I might have missed it but could the owners of the below three teams confirm what name they use on the forum before the draft? The Gum Drops Pottsies Vikings GH Golden Points Just a reminder the Draft will start at 5 PM AEDT next sunday, so please try and regularly check the forum from then or enter...

edwahu

Seems certain he has moved down the pecking order anyway. He was effectively the Mounties fullback last night.

I thought Sam Williams was the best on ground last night. I would have him in the halves with Jack at the Back. Such a side has our most experienced spine players in their best positions.

Isn't that the problem though?

Did Murchie play on the edge? Or in the middle?

Sent from my iPhone using The Greenhouse

Mostly edge from what I remember.

edwahu

As long as he was at the game and decided who played I don't think it matters.
