I don't like him either, but he's pretty much bang on in terms of our halves.

I thought we were going to be last tbh lol.

Each to their own, opinions are just that!! Let’s wait an see what the season brings... but I myself am a little more hopeful to be honest.

Soward is a little butt-muncher. Can Meaney can kick the ball well?

Lol hate him because he offered an opinion (and a fair one at that). Can't say I remember Lewis kicking long off the top of my head. I'm not sure if Foran can actually kick a ball also.

The NRL's greatest ever diver is still as dumb as he always was, some critique (no particular order) IMHO;
# 3 Hunt & Norman, Norman won't make it through the season, was released by the Eels for a reason, he's a time bomb the only question is how long will he tick before the bang.
#6 DCE & Elgey, Elgey was a flop at the Titans and DCE can be hot one week and stone cold the next.
# 8 Milford & Nokorima, neither of them have a clue on how to close out a game.
# 9 Taylor & Peachey, they aren't even sure who will play 5/8 could be Peachey or Roberts.
# 10 Brooks & Marshal, at 34 Marshal is even a bigger injury risk than Foran and they have no one else.
# 11 Croft & Munster, the only reason they don't rank lower is Smith saving their ass.

Literally 0 to complain about from a dog's point of view with that assessment lol.

The milkman. Never forget that shit **** in 2009, when idris makes a break for a try or something and he milked the penalty for obstruction . We were the only team that really troubled Benetts dragons then

Was it the game against the Saints he put in a great mid to long range kick that the Morris' chased hard and trapped them in goal.
Yeah that’s the game that first came to mind he kicked them to death with some bombs, and long range kicks coming down just before th try line. I think he kicked a 40/20 aswell. He has it in his arsenal it’s just doing it consistently.

Spot on with our rating.

Only query in the overall list would be Munster/Croft down in 11th. I reckon they'll kill it.

They're more mid range kicks imo. His long range kicks are usually just him booting it up field with that big arc while his mid and short ranged are usually better placed and have more variety to them. Not the worst thing just hoofing it up if you can get the big arc going though.

Not fussed with his comments on us....
But still think he’s a bitch **** and it’s time to resurrect the milkman thread.

Yeah that’s true. He had a big boot so there’s plenty to work with. The biggest issue he will have if he’s partnered with Foran is that on the last tackle the opposition will give him no time because Foran isn’t a kicking option.

Same problem when we had Moses doing the bulk of our long kicking. Really need a reliable second and even third kicking option.
