Hornby retirement will fuel Pearce rumours again

[Thirteen]

Pearce could ask for what he like - 500-550k per year once his contract is over.
BUT the fact is he can't ask for that next year as he is nder contract to the Roosters.

It's upto the Roosters to release him or next year and if they do I fully support them. He can go and get fark.
Why has he done - how many games has he won for us compared to rookie Reynolds and even. The much maligned Sandow has won more games for Souths and Eels than Pearce has won.

He is so far overrated that the roosters need to make a call - and I trust they know what they are doing

Why is that? We got the spoon in 2009 and are in contention for it once again.

I've lost count of the times I've read that Pearce needs a coach who will help progress and further develop his game yadda yadda .....is that really Coach Price ?

Is Pearcey doing Hornby's wife as well?

She's all teeth but then so is Mitchell.

[novice chook]

if mitsh goes we need a fill in waiting in the wings.

i still can see how important killah is to our future. he is a full back 5/8, kicks goals and field goals. leads a team around well. sure the knockers will say he is a nsw lower grade player blah blah but so was boyd, taka, sel etc.

Roosterproud I see Killah as nothing more than an emergency stopgap at NRL level at best. In my opinion, he is not one to pin any hopes on. There would be plenty of better halves in the comp looking for an opportunity we should poach if it turns out Pearce does not renew his contract past 2013. Some of them may not come cheap, but then neither will Pearce.

The boy is a spitting image of Pearcey. The girl no doubt has better speech than Pearcey.

I agree with these comments.

What is it with the halves at this club and profligate fornication?

[The Brain]

Nothing will be ever be remedied here unless we have forwards that can work and make yards
one they dont tackle enough and no venom
two they cant make yards they barely average 40 to 70m a match rarely cracking the 100 and to have the team going forward you need to 3 players to at least crack 160m
No halves we have can work in the current environment no matter who they are
All I know most of our ruck plays have been slow and disorganised
Thats all Smith Family have to rectify to win a game some thing like that happened against souffs until the blunder brothers struck.

I would doubt Price will be an NRL coach for much longer...

I agree. 100m a game is par which our forwards just never do consistently. I lay the blame squarely on Friend with his shithouse service. By the time he actually gets around to passing the ball, the defensive line is already up, the quick play the ball is nullified, and our forwards are getting belted. Our pack does make a lot of hitups, it's just that Friend kills it for them.

Friend is one of numerous reasons I see.. I also question the fitness of the team and also if you notice our forwards stand so flat so when taking the ball for a hit up they are almost running from a standing start. further to this is running actions.. JWH is the only front rower who consistently hits the line at any speed but runs too upright and struggles to consistently break the advantage line as a result as he is an easy target for a good hit into the upper body and can be driven backwards.

Agree with all of that.

I also think our fitness is letting us down a bit. We've been right in some games and then just rolled over and got smashed.

We always let points in at the back end of halves and I wish I had a dollar for every time a side scored against us in the couple of minutes before half time.

That, and they're a bunch of mentally weak, soft cocks.
