Carney would've been a great signing tbh...He's one of the main reasons why the Sharks are going well and to top it off he's young AND better than Foran IMO...It's too bad that our club refused to gamble on him

Another douche bag comment by yourself , let's clean up the clubs image and recruit a complete and utter kook , Reynolds is doing a fantastic job , can't wait for your next retarded negative comment , go give Todd a call I'm sure he'd love to hear all you're criticisms , you knob IMO!

I'm not sure we really need Foran if Hasler is moulding Reynolds game on Foran.

We don't need two halves playing the exact same sort of game, they need to compliment each other.

Is thankful every day that our board was not stupid enough to sign Carney. He would have been a PR nightmare for the club and he hasn't even played the season out yet. He may well turn the corner and become a great player but he simply was never worth the gamble.

Reynolds is doing great and while I wish Carney luck, until he plays out a few seasons at one club without causing them dramas. Onfield success is important but can be attained without taking such a gamble...so taking one would have been dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb dumb...why don't you start supporting the players we have rather than pining for ``superstars" whose influence on our club would be questionable?

....until he plays out a few seasons at one club without causing them dramas, he represents a stupid risk that only a club whop struggles to attract top line talent ire Cronulla would consider.

LOL you're like that little pest that follows someone around because you don't get enough attention.

Premierships > Club Image.

And what on earth is a kook? Man learn some proper english mate

Oh no doubt Reynolds is doing great for us, but Carney is a class above him, and you can't honestly expect a club like the Roosters to actually be capable of keeping a player in check, that club has a very very bad attitude. Myles has been a lot better since going off to the Coast.

Still, for the price we could've had Carney for (He wouldn't have been too expensive), he would've been a great option.

Possibly you are right......but remember Canberra didn't have much luck keeping him in line either...not JUST a roosters problem. I wish him well...and no doubt Todd Carney with the right attitude/ mental approach would be a coup for any club. I just don't think he was worth the risk. A firing Carney results in a firing side, but a disruptive Carney can make a side fall apart pretty quickly.

Also, Reynolds is a junior and I think could be something pretty special for us. Des has made a name making the most out of players. I'm glad he seems keen to invest the time in Reynolds. I hope we don't get Foran for the same reason......you kook! haha jk....we all have our opinions....not saying mine is right...just that I think it's right ;)

cheers.

PS rumour going around Carney will play international football again this year. I hear he is a hot tip to captain the Kook Islands team :P

Yes Carney would have been a great signing except for that little thing called reality. Seriously mate do you live in a cave with no access to tv or newpapers? Maybe I'm wrong maybe you could name a club he played for that didn't get rid of him for being a nimrod. I suppose a couple of months without being a tool (that we've heard of) is proof he's a changed man.

He played for two clubs before the Sharks...Raiders and the Roosters, whilst he honestly f*cked up majorly at the Raiders, you can't seriously believe that the Roosters harbour a decent culture? I mean he wasn't the only caught up in some of the most embarrassing incidents.

We'll see how he goes at the Sharks, suffice to say if he does screw up again then egg in my face for actually wanting to sign him.
