Don't know if anyone else heard it this morning but Woodsy was on the programme. He does a weekly segment by phone with TK and Loz. Without getting too much into the nitty gritty I thought the one key comment he made in the interview was when he was asked about the difference when behind on the...

It was interesting to find out that our TPA's are nowhere near what the Donkeys ($2m), Rorters ($1.5m) Wabbits or Cows are (not sure how much the last 2 are but it is way over us). We are way less than $500k. Effectively that means the top 2 clubs have the ability to sign an extra 4 or 5 blokes...

I know a lot of people have had some strong views about these two young blokes but you can take it as read that the club thinks they are both good young players and will add to our team next year. Unlike Mbye who just wasn't a genuine FB despite being a good athlete, the view is that Meaney is a...

Not only has RFM busted his hand but he has also done his knee. It now looks unlikely he will play again this year. So with Woods, Foran, Mbye and now RFM gone this is going to be a really tough end to the season.

I can finally say with some certainty who is in our top 30 that we may not have thought so. Apart from all the regulars who have played FG this year it includes Lewis, Cleeland and Ogden in the top 30. I've seen their lockers. Only hole we have now is for Woods who cleaned out his locker this...

The issue of who is and who isn't in our (or any teams) top 30 is really annoying me. We have websites that may or may not be accurate. We have "insiders" who may or may not be right and we now have players who don't actually know what's going on. Surely it isn't that hard before round 1 each...

All this going backwards and forwards over who should be coming and who is going has got me thinking about what our real problem is when you look at the modern game. the best way to look at it is to compare what we have with what the top teams have and see where we are short. We have plenty of...

I watched the game last night between a struggling broncos and a pathetic Eels and amongst all of that I couldn't help but notice the performances of all 4 wingers on the field compared to Montoya. The speed of French, Jennings and Isaako, the power of Oates, the physicality that all 4 put into...

Am I right in assuming that those who are in the FG primary squad wear their bulldogs shirts at training, while the likely ISP players wear yellow and those who are on the injured (do not tackle) list have pink/red shirts? If that is correct then does that mean Eastwood is going to be dropped...

Just had a look at the latest photos of the boys training in Perth. Maybe its my imagination but it seems to me that Tolman and Eastwood look a whole lot fitter this season than last year. Maybe they might just go a bit better than a lot of people think this season...

I was interested to read that puff piece this morning about the Qatari Sheik wanting to buy into the NRL, not so much because he will be a white knight but because it only reinforces what I have been thinking and saying about smart TPA's. Someone wrote in another post about Dib's connections to...

Have you seen the interview by Zap with Nu Brown that popped up on the members site yesterday? Seems pretty clear from what Brown said that he came here to be a half and that he has some expectations around being the halves partner with Foran. Given he has a reasonable history with Lichaa which...

OK, so yesterday I went to the NY Giants v LA Chargers game at Metlife stadium. It got me thinking about all these study tours coaches/players do over here in the off season and whether there is really anything that can be learned. Let me say this is my second game at Metlife and I have enjoyed...

Now that everyone is back on board with Lichaa having talent again, despite apparently having none for the past 2 years, are we prepared to accept that most of the other players that have copped a hiding on here may just be pretty good players as well and will show that talent under the new...

Well the weather is great. It's an hour to kick off and the hill is filling up. About 4000 or so here so far. Unfortunately the reggies are getting belted. Only ones doing ok are griffin, tuomaga and Carr. Neither halves or hookers doing much. We keep dropping the ball every set. Saw kas today...

People on here have been talking about this young bloke and questioning why we haven't signed him. I was 'lucky' enough to overhear a conversation between a couple of league heavyweights a couple of days ago and the conversation was about how the Tigers were signing him and the price was $600k a...

I've been replaying some of the comments from the Forum in my head over the past few days (I know - nothing else in there) around what Des and Tolman were on about. They kept pounding the 'defence wins comps' theme with most of their answers and at the time I thought it was a bit unusual to...

Well sitting here waiting for forum to start. Fun personally greeting every. Had a chat to tolman. He's pretty positive. Don't see too many young ins here. Most have snow on roof and know each other. They have a PowerPoint with a heap of questions they are no doubt going to show and talk to.

I thought by now someone would have mentioned the fact that 3 of our forwards who usually go 80 minutes a game or near enough actually had time on the bench yesterday. Graham came off around the 23 min mark and didn't come on until later in the second half and both Elliott and Jackson had...

OK, time to admit I was wrong. Montoya today really stamped himself as a strong winger. He showed pace I haven't seen before, some of his defence was almost Haz like in its timing and he ran strongly all game. He was rightly rewarded with a try at the end. He is now in my view streets ahead of...
