[Scooby Doo]

Why the hell would you want roberts re-signed. The guy is useless

Agreed. I personally think Holdsworth and Kimmorley will be a much stronger combination than Roberts.

Holdsworths got to go as well. He's just as bad.

No Holdsworth is the worse combination for Kimmorley because Kimmorley has everything Holdsworth has and more.

You need a great running 5/8 or atleast someone with spark.

AJ Taumata, Ben Barba, Ben Roberts, Aaron Groom will all provide this. Holdsworth will not.

 

[BULLDOG GEORGE]

kimmourly is a steady player and so is holdsworth. it would be better to put kimmourly with a more creative player like roberts or taumata.

 

[dog on guard]

any news on signing an outside back........ We need some speed...

i dont know who the back is but i do know that it will be
only a fring player not a big name due to the club is almost
on the cap

Exactly, him and holdsworth need to be pointed to the door

 

[Berries]

Roberts is the type of player who needs to pick the right to time to set something up and when he does it would usually lead to a line break, try etc. With Kimmorly he would fire big time.

for once you make sense and i agree with you

 

[Howsie]

I said a couple of days ago the Bulldogs were talking to Ben Jones, it's almost a done deal that he is coming here.

 

[DogSince67]

Who is Ben Jones?

 

[Howsie]

Who is Ben Jones?

Raiders forward, he is a young guy and I've seen him play a few games. He is pretty good.

 

[B-Train]

Raiders forward, he is a young guy and I've seen him play a few games. He is pretty good.

He is OK, a second rower.

If he can't consistently get a run in the Raiders team, then what good would it be buying a fringe first grade second rower when we are already more than well suited in that department and have Harrsion coming through soon also?

Wouldn't make sense and would not be a wise investment if true IMO.

Oh, and by the way, he isn't young, he is 28 years old.

very true, we have a stack of back rowers, and a few waiting in the wings.
it would be a strange signing, a fringe centre i can understand but not a second rower

i agree with the whole list except for Ryan he deserves a good team around him, instead of tackling for everyone else
