Too bad though, being unemployed and trying to start up a new job as a personal trainer with classes on the beach or surrounds/in parks, he'll have to pay money for the privilege.

Sad it's going to end.
No mention of the 5 others who 'betrayed the trust' of their fellow playing group members.
Wonder who they are?

Forward thinker: Anasta happy to extend career at the Roosters in pack
SYDNEY ROOSTERS captain Braith Anasta is confident of finalising a new deal to remain at the club and insists he is happy to play in the second row this season.
With star playmaker Todd Carney sidelined by a groin injury until the season-opening clash with South Sydney on March 11, Roosters coach Brian Smith has opted to give rookie Mark Kheirallah the No.6 jersey for Saturday night's Foundation Cup clash with Wests Tigers at the SFS rather than play Anasta at five-eighth.
But after admitting towards the end of last season that he was struggling to come to terms with the move into the forwards, Anasta said he was now comfortable wearing the No.11 jersey.
''I'm playing the same as I was last year. My role hasn't changed, only the number has changed,'' Anasta said. ''I think the sooner everyone gets used to me in that number the better.''

1. Gould has been hit in the head one too many times.
2. We're going to be stuck with Anasta in the 6 until he retires.
Going on his workload and general lack of involvement he'll be playing until he's 40.
This is going to be a dark couple of years.

He ****ed us up. Dont get me wrong, I still believe he's a super talent. But the club doesnt need him to bring us down once more. You cannot deny, Carney created a world of uncertainty and disappointment that rubbed off on the players. You could see he was a liability. One too many chances. See ya.
I cant see how the club could justify keeping him. And there's nothing you can say BB that csan justify it either so please stop wasting A) your breath and B) our time.Alcohol never solved any life problems.....then again neither did milk.

Carney made us look good last year and Smith knows that. But in the name of team "harmony" Captain DogTat gets his way.

It's a big gamble if you ask me, getting rid of a fit Carney when we're down the bottom of the ladder and the playing roster will be same next year with a couple of rookies added and the same coach.
SKD now has a groin injury.
I hope for the stubborn management, stubborn coach and stubborn captain's sake their gamble pays off.
Because if it doesn't the fans will be storming the 'Bastille' and demanding that heads roll.
Take it to the bank!Last edited by bondi-boy; 09-01-2011, 04:10 PM.

Carney is an individual that will spend his whole life looking for excuses for his failures. And unfortunately there will always be people like you gullible enough to believe every word of drivel he speaks and writes but has no intention of following through on.

Just been talking to someone in the know.
Apparently the club would love to keep Carney because of all the time, effort & money.
The board members have had enough though, & feel that it is time to move him on. NP still wants to give him another go.
Therefore the other board members are virtually asking NP to step aside on any decision making on this one.
Just how far is NP willing to push the issue?
Hmmmmmm

If he's got any sense he'll do what forumite Artie's Pie suggested, and keep him as insurance, just in case plan A fails.
He's the one who's gonna get the blame if Plan A fails...look at the badmouthing of him here already.
Wisdom is all about compromise.
Play him in Newtown, pay him his contract money, get him some new friends, encourage him, coach him...what is there to lose?
If it doesn't work out, just drop him off the Newtwon list and no one will hardly notice.
If though Plan A fails he will have another option...and if this option works he'll be looking like King Solomon.Last edited by bondi-boy; 09-01-2011, 05:14 PM.
