    Yeah well perhaps it's Henry who needs an attitude adjustment. When your job is on the line and the team's success is on the line, the attitude of some young player is of second consideration. How was he actually playing is the more pertinent question. And the answer is, there's really no way he should've been dropped.

    agreed. IMO not sold on your depth up front but if you keep James, Douglas and Myles fit you're set for a big one.

    you have to get your back line right though.

    it's fucking disgusting.

    we've lost arguably our most important 3 players from last season and not replaced them. we still don't have a hooker and the front row is shitty besides Vaughan and shillo. only have 3 nrl standard back rowers too. will be a long, long season.

    From what I seen though he needs to work on his defence. Seems the only hole in Taumalolo's game from what I seen in some games of his.

    canberra let Thompson go ftr. they wanted to keep him, then were asked to match the dragons offer and had a bit of a chuckle before saying no thanks.

    Really? I actually didn't get that feeling when looking at the squad. If Stuart can actually remember how to coach club footy, they might make the 8 IMO. Vaughn, Shillo, TLL, Tilse and White is a quality rotation. They've got some very promising outside backs. Halfback and hooker is a concern obviously but if Campese stays fit they can challenge. With Milford and Campo they've got a better spine than a lot of sides. Funny how when you think they'll go alright, I think they'll go shit and when you think they'll go shit, I think they'll do alright. Here's hoping for their sake I'm right (again :p).

    Oh and apparently Manly are in talks with Canberra about taking a match to....wait for it................China!

    Channel 9 is asking for compensation to be able to broadcast the game as well as take the Footy Show over there. What a farce.

  19. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Yeah I recently had a good look at Cornish when I realised that. I'm not sold either but the job, should he get it, is to be nothing more than a foil for Campo. He doesn't have to be spectacular. Just help steer the ship.

    Went to you guys as part of the plan (I wish). He's now training at hooker as well, so i think he will be the first choice 9 this year...
