Another Maloney story? Okay 1/2 who's going nowhere fast signs with Easts, wins a premiership and becomes one of the most sought after halves in the comp?
Right now any half who comes to Easts will play with Cronk as their mentor and have Joey + JT at their disposal. I'm surprised we don't have better juniors coming through! Or... maybe Radley, Watson, Matto, SOS and co are all perfect examples? Oh yeah, we buy all our players... totally...Last edited by ism22; 10-26-2018, 09:48 PM.

Plenty on here were saying we must be after Cleary to replace Cronk, then there was media talk of Munster. I have said all along that Cronk will be replaced with a budget option ,no way Johnson will be coming either.Its not a matter of replacing Cronks money with a big money half,a good portion of that will be covering increases to Radley and a few others and that's before taking into account the likes of Mitchell and Manu the following year.

it would be poetic justice if we snare the warriers halfback before his contract expires, im still disgusted at6 the way they pinched our rts. nort that id want him back i think teddy fat surpasses him as fullback.mini taught him everything he knows about fullback play anyway.my concern is that johnson seems to getinjured a lot lately as he gets older his freeflowing sidestepping game must be slowing down?

I also wonder how RTS felt seeing us win another comp; knowing he's at a club that isn't even close to winning one.
Ironically if he stayed we might not have won the comp because Teddy was so instrumental. We suffered one shit year but in the long run we ended up replacing him with perhaps the worlds best player.Last edited by Tommy Smith; 10-27-2018, 11:48 AM.

He could easily go down the same path as Benji and become average overnight as soon as he loses a yard of pace.
He's also a peaheart which should be taken into account. Didn't Freddy call him out for playing in a dinner suit? Which he sooked about.Last edited by Tommy Smith; 10-27-2018, 11:53 AM.
