  • management have brought this on themselves

    thanks to some mind boggling recruitment decisions early this season, we find ourselves in a situation where we are prepared to release one of the few players pulling their weight recently in Nate Myles to free up salary cap room, if anything he should be made captain and piss Anasta off.

    we are now in a position where we are stuck with the current roster for the next couple of years with no salary cap room to add some speed/creativity that we desperately need.

    I have said all along I couldn't believe that we gave :

    Anasta another year what a dumb decision he is nothing more than a media whore salary cap thief.

    Mini why the hell would you give him another year so early in the season, its plain to see he has lost his speed/power which were the attributes that made him a great fullback 6 years ago.

    FPN has had a dog of a season until tonight, where at least he started hitting the ball up a little harder, did not deserve a big money long term contract on his performances late last year early this year.

    Riddell/Graham add nothing to the first grade squad and should be banished to Newtown now our season is over to give Smith an opportunity to see if there is any talent coming through worth keeping.

    Ryles was great last year but sadly is off the pace this year, surely he should only be used if injuries occur, the club would be better served getting game time into the younger players.

    if Smith is not willing to make the hard decisions like standing Anasta down and installing Myles as captain, either dumping Mini or moving him to the wing, pissing Graham/Riddell/Watts/Ryles off to allow the development of our younger squad members the damage to the club will be felt in full force over the next 3-5 years.

    I don't get it mate. Smith was ruthless at Newcastle when it came to culling deadwood yet here he is the total opposite.

    Perhaps Uncle Nick is not allowing what needs to be done.

      Mini doesn't have another year yet.

      There is still hope.

      It's slim.

      But it is still a chance.

          Riddell, Graham and Ryles will be gone.

          I still think if Anasta and Mini get the tap on the shoulder they will go as well.

          I admit all those players are not needed next year but we would need some senior players.

          You can't just have a bunch of kids on their own.

            The Linnett/Graham thing annoys the hell out of me, Kane once again scored today and nearly scored another 2....how Phil is in Firsts over him is beyond me.

            Brian, lift your ****ing game.

              sorry to tell you JT, Mini was on MNF on fox a couple of weeks ago and said he had signed a contract extension till the end of next year and hoped to go on after that.

                  It always has been and always will be like that. He's a great man who has done a lot for the club, but I think the time has come for us to move on.

                    Phil actually hsn't been that bad. he caught a ball thrown 2 m ahead of him, made no mistakes and was business like. BJ dropped the game, albeit he was playing well up to that point. SKD barely touched the ball tonight, let alone Graham. Give him a break

                      He doesn't get involved enough. He never goes looking for the ball.

                        I saw it.

                        We will have to wait and see what happens.

                          You forgot to mention the fact that our young superstar halfback was given a free run into 1st grade, he never earnt his spot, they took all the pressure away form the bloke by getting rid of every decent half the club hadin the wings, hence he has never been in the position of trying to hold down his position, its showing now on game days, under pressure he has little if no response, apart from an untried lazurus, our 20s halves are poo, the jets halves not much better.

                          The club has certainly brought it upon themselves.

                            Yes management have bought in on tnemselves by pinning their success on the back of an arogant, selfish drunk who is doesn't give a shit about the club or its supporters and only thinks about himself. Todd Carney has derailed our season on and off the field and yet he will be welcome back with open arms, probably sooner rather than later.

                            As to those wanting Nate Myles to be given the captaincy, think again. He is another selfish individual who will always put himself before the club and his team mates. It's always been about the 'lifestyle' for this bloke and nothing more.

                            And we will probably lose a great local talent like Tom Symonds whilst we keep the selfish carnts who don't give a shit about the RW&B.

                            And there endeth my rant for the evening.

                            Supporting the RW&B, through good times and bad times.

                              TBH the Rorters should consider folding, these amateurs offer absolutely nothing but mediocrity to the great game of Rugby League, how the NRL has not done away with this rabble for continously bringing the game into disrepute is beyond belief.........

                              The current forward pack consists of wannabe thugs and total grubs, blokes who think they're hardmen, but in actual fact are a bunch of marshmallows.
