I On what basis would they sack him? They completed a review,that decided last years performance was good enough to re appoint him. How can they possibly go worse than last year?

It is a big decision,when you take into account the other options available to Gibson ifhe turns out to be a flake. He is left with a bunch of untested rookies & an ageing ex League player. I generally prefer youth over experience,but I think L Turner might solve a lot of problems if they...

Mate, if the answer is Berrick, you're asking the wrong question :)

You didn't see any Reds games this year?

Come home Lachie!

The code can't support another Super franchise atm. I'm ok with losing the odd unproven Schoolkid that can earn ridiculous money in league. I'd actually be more distressed if our code was signing Schoolkids on $270k contracts before they had ever tackled a man.

I've seen NRL players look like chumps playing touch against guys who could never play NRL.Being a god NRL player is just evidence that they are strong athletes. Some NRL players would no doubt excel,many would not. It's no good being big & strong enough to smash anyone on the paddock,if you...

that means the 13 gets to come in & pick & go when the pigs start to tire from it..... He has hardly assembled a side to play a wide expansive game,John Grant is no Quade,and Lance is hardly creative at this level.

I have no doubt the right League players would excel in 7's with sufficient lead time. The question is,who are the right type of players. And then,are they much better than the alternatives. I wouldn't be looking at any League forwards at all.lets remember that not many are as mobile as SBW and...

I'm not so sure. There are plenty of weak/missed tackles in league ,since they started to coach them to catch the ball runner,rather than knocking him over. Bozos opinion of the kid will determine his future there,not his tackling technique. He mightn't feature in the org chart,but he is the...

League has always used one out hit ups to get go forward. It couldn't be less like touch once they get in the red zone. All teams are now setting up for a play that involves a kick of some sort,because they have had ball playing instincts coached out of them. A quote from Trent Barret in the...

He has signed a 2 year deal? And he thinks he has long term security? Don't get me wrong,I wish him no ill will,but I seriously hope that was just an off the cuff comment. Both codes offer long term security to only the very,very best,neither offer it to schoolboy hopefuls.... I'm surprised that...

I don't see it at all. I'm not suggesting he's not the best we have,simply that his running game is grades above his kicking out of hand and his ball playing. Watching any highlights reel,it's 95% of him running the ball. There's a reason why Cheika insists on pairing him with a ball playing...

'The Florence of the South' Fuck me,you must be a real estate agent. And a fucking good one!

I'd classify Foley more as a runner than a ball player.

HJ,seriously? Your comparing a white privledged kid being crash tackled,to a black man being beaten with sticks by a group of policemen,who are then found not guilty on racial grounds, despite film footage proving their guilt? Hmmmmm. Not much else to say,

Disagree totally what's your new rule big arse? Anyone under 80kg has free reign to ignore rules? I reckon the kid is stoked,being tackled and then meeting & getting photos with SBW is a win,then he gets the medal as a bonus. Do it is Sydney and mummy gets a $5k? fine. Getting outraged about...

We won every game Foley played in,this year except the RWC final. Don't hold your breath waiting for him to be replaced. Whatever his limitations,his style suits the coaches game plan.

Around the Cnr? Fair few sleeps before kick off in round 1. Do you put the xmas tree up in August?

It will be interesting to see how the Wicks manage player expectations next year. There's quite a few more than 15, that were attracted to the Wicks as a way of enhancing their their prospects of picking up a pro contract. Most players are aware that very few gain pro contracts playing in 2's.....
