He’s exactly what we need would help burtons game plus help our young halves
Good chance Griffin will get the sack before the year is over and Hunt has spoken out saying he'll reassess his options if that's the case. I think Hunt stays regardless but that's where this is coming from.If he wants out, we throw the sink, but theres no evidence that he does
Critta is our fullback. We need a half (only if a quality experienced one on contract becomes available) and middles.I heard he was seen in the vicinity of the West Tigers - don’t shoot the messenger, just passing on info.
personally, I couldn’t give a flying fu<k where he goes, I’m more interested in middles and a fullback - we already have earmarked KO as our halves investment to partner Burton.
I hope he turns out to be the fb we want him to be, he hasn’t dominated any game in that position - but at centre, he’s top 3 in the gameCritta is our fullback. We need a half (only if a quality experienced one on contract becomes available) and middles.
I noticed him cos he’s my halfback for fantasy and he had a bad game (usually averages near 60) got half of thatHe was pretty average yesterday. Barely noticed him.. If he had a game like that for us and was on $1 million plus, the Kennel would have crucified him.
Problem with all this is that Hook got hooked by Bullguss..Good chance Griffin will get the sack before the year is over and Hunt has spoken out saying he'll reassess his options if that's the case. I think Hunt stays regardless but that's where this is coming from.
Wasn't he white pretending to be paki pretending to be Leb?And he wasn’t Indian he was LEB and hardcore!!
Oh man nice pick-ups. Fonua-Blake has been killing it.. I still think Hunt is a better hooker than a half.I noticed him cos he’s my halfback for fantasy and he had a bad game (usually averages near 60) got half of that
I only scraped out a win thanks largely to Fonua Blake v Storm [emoji38]
Barrett was interested to watch in Mounties but him being incompetent and fired screwed the talented prodigySounds like Barret didn't know talent when he saw it ey bro?
Every race wants to claim him it’s absurd.Wasn't he white pretending to be paki pretending to be Leb?
Too many cooks in the kitchen at Rooster and they want to structure/simplify Walker's game so the big dogs are more involved/impactful. I think at a team lacking talent he'd kill it there. He's unorthodox and tries too hard at times to create. Maybe goes with the all in/low risk play too much.I'm another who would love Ben Hunt to come to us for 2 years, but I've been of the opinion that due to his Father/Son like relationship with Anthony Griffin, the last thing I think he would do is join forces with the man who sensationally sacked Griffin at Penrith and with Hooks assistant Ciraldo who tried to walk out on Griffin twice.
In fact, yesterday the penny dropped for me when Hunts next destination became clearer to me.
Everyone knows that Hook is getting the arse from the Dragons especially those getting sort out to fill the position next year.
Everyone also knows that Hunt wants to leave if Hook gets sacked.
The last week of events:
-Jason Ryles is the man that the Dragons want & have approached, meaning that he knows Hooks out & Hunt may be next. Ryles is currently the Roosters coach & can pass this knowledge onto his current club. Ryles is said to be more interested in Joining the Storm in 2025 after his Roosters contract expires.
- Sam Walker gets axed to reserve and the media shit fight commences.
IMO the Roosters know that the 20 year old halfback won't take them to the promised land just yet, but as they did with Cronk, they know an experienced origin Halfback can.
Long story short
- The Roosters can easily move Sam Walker on with a host of suitors
- Ben Hunt will end up at the Chooks as of next year.
That's the way I'm reading it anyway.
The Roosters pull off a lot of things, particularly the NRL auditors and hierarchyHe won’t go to roosters bro even they can’t pull that off.
He’s at the end of his life he will go for the money.
The 1.5 mil for Moses will likely go to him at the tigers that’s the honest truth but maybe we can get him. But we need to pay.
Gus was smart having that chat last year. Planting seeds.
But I think the most likely outcome if he leaves the Saint George team is a 1.4 mil x 3 year deal with the tiger pies or 1.5 over 2.
