That list of teams has won 8 premierships between them in the last 10 years. Eels made a GF and Dolphins have only had one full season. I don’t think our results prove we’re just as good.

Try Souths! At least until the bunker agrees. and they do! very much! Dragons 14 - Souths 10 Just confirming, is it Dragons 14 - Souths 10, or Lomax 14 - Souths 10? Dunno. Fell asleep, just woke up.

It is good to see

10 years is a long time, you take it back that far and the Raiders have signed Hodgo, Whitehead, CNK, Smithies, Williams, Sezer, Fog, Tapine, Cotric, BJ, Paulo, Raps in that time, plus a heap of decent squad players like Havilli and Lui. I'd only really swap the Roosters for the Raiders list given ...

No. He’s not keen on such activities

I assume he doesn't really like to move from his favoured spot on the lap, where he has the best view!

HKR - what's the point of making signings if they don't change anything? Well done to the Tigers - they have signed some great players individually but where are they sitting on the ladder? They are bottom 4. Dogs? They have stunk it up and only now playing some decent football. These clubs sign pl...

Hey GE, Can you please explain how the roosters can announce the Fifita signing so quickly.. But we can't even announce Sanders signing yet?? Why is that you reckon?? Are you nervous?? I can't see any official announcement from the Roosters on Fifita yet: https://www.roosters.com.au/news/ I may hav...

Come on Nickman ease up on poor Blaize. He's only 19 and 5 games into his career. Way too early to be writing him off, imo

Yeah, GE will be too busy smashing cans with me at the Victory Hotel!

Finchy

To sum it up, Andrew Webster is struggling. How about other highly touted coaches who have come through in the last few seasons? Adam Obrien? Stinking the house down. Todd Payten. Also wafting an abhorrent stench. Jason Demetriou? Jack is playing the best footy of his career under him.? Ciraldo and...

We’ve really missed Rapana. He’s like Gutho to the Eels even though I can’t stand the bloke. We need an energiser bunny who’s just at you all day in attack, defence, dummy half, hit ups, offloads, everything. He’s good at getting Timoko across the line too. Our halves tend to struggle to get him qua...

Whatever happened to Question or Off or whatever he was calling himself?

Finchy

As anyone actually said "get rid of Chevy Stewart and sign Blaize Tuilagi" though? I think if Stewart asked for a release and we signed Talagi as a replacement, GE's assessment of both players talents might change. But he is greeneyed after all, and loyal if even to a fault. You're missin...

Finchy

Now that I think about it, Talagi wouldn't be a bad signing. His path to FG is blocked at Parra (Gutho FB, Brown 5/8, Moses halfback, Lomax/Penisi centres, Sivo/Russell/Simonsen wing), unless injury strikes (which it has this year). He covers FB, OB, and halves. Worth a call.

Finchy

Love the enthusiasm about young players, but anyone suggesting we give the boot to our best spine player to start next season with 3 teenagers in our spine is a little too excited. Sorry to burst bubbles Well it was suggested we get rid of Tapine because he won't be as good in 3 years time, so anyt...

Finchy

Finchy

If Bluesbrother, who's mates with Ricky, thinks Talagi is a better talent than Chevy, he's may not be basing that on a couple of games and may have watched both for a while. He might be wrong, he might be right. Talagi certainly showed a lot of skill tonight. Let's reassess where they're both at in...

Finchy

Separate topic, but what's the deal with AFL? I mean, I've tried to watch it over the years, but the game just sucks. The fact that no-one plays it outside of Australia tells me it's a dumb game compared to cricket/soccer/basketball/etc, but the Victorians in particular are mad for it. They get abso...

Finchy

Yes, I think I do, but I wouldn’t be averse to seeing Blaize in green too. He’d do well at centre. I think if Stewart asked for a release and we signed Talagi as a replacement, GE's assessment of both players talents might change. But he is greeneyed after all, and loyal if even to a fault. Oh man,...

Colonel looks outstanding. He's a ridiculously good talent. As is Blaize Talagi. I expect Blaize to head to the Roosters. He's a better talent than Chevy as well.

Finchy

GE I don't think people are necessarily "running down" our young players. I'm seeing comparisons with other young players at other clubs in the same positions of a similar age/experience, and comments that they look a bit more dangerous at the moment (speed/step/ball play) etc. I actually ...

It helps when the Bulldogs can be almost as **** as the Tigers, but still sign the likes of Burton, Kikau, JAC, Crichton, Mahoney, etc. If we could recruit that level of talent we’d start trending upwards pretty quickly as well. But we recruit Levi and Sasagi.

Back to this game Ethan has been ok. He has been good in defence. I’m super impressed with this Talagi kid. I would be going after him hard. He just looks like likely I've got a feeling Roosters will get him. Uncle Nick is just warming up Roosters like signing the finished product. They'll go for C...
