  1. Toolman TR Man

    unbelievable that even newcastle wouldn't sign todd carney
     
  2. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    Broncos probs gonna pay his legal bill.
     
  3. Toolman TR Man

    Manly will do well and Lachie Croker will do well.
     
  4. Wilson SB Wilson

    Corey Thompson.

    Lock him in for your Tigers fullback Round 1 and will absolutely kick arse. Where he should have been playing all along at the Dogs instead of that pleb Des playing Perrett
     
  5. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Actually had him in line as a future maroon back when he was at the Dogs. Why did he go overseas?
     
  6. Wilson SB Wilson

    No decent opportunity after the last Dogs season. Good thing he did though, he absolutely slaughtered it over there, did him a shit load more good than staying here for that period.
     
  7. AVA T Delonge

    Yeah getting out of that Dogs team from last season was a genius move.

    Keen to see Oates get a good shot in the back row.

    I know he’s a big, powerful runner but I don’t think he’s suited to it tbh. Got a massive stride so his leg speed is low without a great deal of footwork. And as has been noticed by everyone bar Gemmell, his timing/positioning isn’t great.

    I think he’ll go alright if they use him as a battering ram when close to the try line or with a quick PTB but anything cute at the defensive line, and I wouldn’t be expecting much.
     
  10. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    He's the best left winger in the world, and should stay there.
     
  11. jazman84 JM Eightyfour

    He's a liability on the wing. It's not only his lazyness returning to his wing after a hit up. You cant have a winger with like 66% kick defusal rate.
     
  12. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I think I'd sooner play Oates at prop than second row tbh. It's a bad call.
     
  13. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Are you against it for similar reasons or do you have some other criticisms in mind?
     
  14. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Start spelling his name correctly you fucks.

    I thought Oates looked good every time he's been in the 2nd row. Killed it there in the 20s too. He'll have plenty of work to do to get to a decent stage, will need to get lucky with injuries and will possibly move to a different club to continue his career there with Su'a and Fifita coming through.
     
  16. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    Like fuck he needs to move clubs.
