UPDATE: Roosters Sign Matt Srama

I guess Cocky Rooster Man was right all along.....

But…..
That would make your brother (Turk) inbred, according to CRM.

Not sure what that makes me (or you for that matter), my son.

if he doesn't turn up next season it will be no big loss. Not a fan of him to begin with. Certainly not the player everyone was making him out to be. Maubs and SOH can fill the role for 3-4 weeks easy, and Maub's defence is solid for 80 minutes.

If you are inbred that makes you a sandwich.

Perfect for gherkins.
It all makes sense.
Thanks.

3-4 weeks could be closer to 6-10 though.

Srama's a decent player, should definitely in be the Titans 17. I'd much prefer he did come, however we'll still get by if this deal never eventuates.

I'd prefer Williams and SOH in the hooking role. Maubs needs to be on the right edge, he's too good there.

Maubs was an awful dummy half. I hope to never see him in that role again.

Considering his prep time was zero I thought he did well and could pull it off with a full pre season. In saying that I prefer shrama at the right price.

Did very well..

Bit embarrassing that we'd announce the signing of a player who never actually signed... He has 2 years left with the Titans and we've only offered him 1 year. He wants to receive the money he is owed for the 2nd year (which I think is fair enough).

Don't be alarmed..

In a time of need & without notice he did the job
we got deep into the finals as a result
a reflection of Maubs talent to play out of position
Hooker at premiership level has to be the toughest job, is where you're found out, where the smallest error can impact outcomes.

Srama has to be small minded not to see the opportunity at Easts, a step backwards to make a giant leap forward down the track is his best chance, another potential has been.

You nearly went from Minor Premiers to going out in straight sets. If Friend didn't play in the first 30 against the Cowboys you would have been history that night.

He did a job, and he should be commended, but it was a fill in role in desperate times, he is a average passer of the ball and has no kicking game.

If the club cannot find or manufacture a decent dummy half this far out from the beginning of the season, and have to use maubs again, I will hand in my membership

Whilst he was no Cameron Smith, I doubt anyone thought less of Maubs as a player for the job he did. He could definitely fill in for a game or two but after that we'd have to explore other options.

If Friend was to get injured during a game however, I'm glad we have someone like Maubs to fill in.
