Poor Siro has always been a powder puff but the above mentioned pair make him look like Terry Randall.

 

[bob dylan]

Compare them in 5 years time, the original pair took their time to mature as NRL players as well

Won't be able to because one will be 44 years old and the other will be coaching the Moree Boomerangs.

Yeah, I think with all the hurting of recent performances a lot here are hallucinating (perhaps praying) that Siro is a lot better than reality. Yes, he showed some improvement over the season and put in a couple of good games, but he also showed plenty of ordinary stuff too. Happy to get him back and also hope he continues to improve, but I doubt he will be of saviour status that many are tending to give him.

 

[Shnorky]

Which is the greater pairing?

Bob if you put it that way, who in this team would have made our 08, 11 or 13 team? Maybe uate, DCE as opposed to dce, marty, anyone else?

Winterstein should be hitting his straps in 5 yrs time.Most 2nd rowers peak around 35 yrs of age

Frank is fresh from Union , so having him play as Choc did in his 5th year is optimistic. 🙄

Rebuilding years, Folks

Louise Brown, Don Lane, Dummy Lussick lol

You are right. Jorge Taufua the only possibility on top of those two you mentioned.

I thought about jorge but we had robbo and wolf who made the australian team in 08
Even jake doesnt have the skillset of gift

Had a few bourbons so cant be 100% sure but winter had his first run at 21.58. Last week was the 20 minute mark. But its not his fault. Its barrets tactic to keep him fresh until after the opposition gets a good lead

I thought his second half was quite good. One of the better performers who ran with gusto

In fact one of his better all round games although his pointing form and defence structure didnt really help his side today. Really bad game of pointing today. Kpis were not ticked off

Most were blaming kelly but green was really poor in D.

Lane looks more likely for mine but was quiet early this week.

Stewart and watmough were leaders. These guys are not in the same postcode

 

[Nordburg]

The 2nd rowers today,Winterstein&Lane,combined for 15 runs for 146 metres,so just your regular Sunday arvo run about for those 2

 

[bob dylan]

I miss Nate Myles.

Actually Myles and Brown seem a good option right now.

Actually Myles and Brown seem a good option right now.

Browns edge defence is as bad as Kellys, in some aspects worse.
At times Kelly attempts to use his shoulder, Brown is 100% arm grabs.

 

[Little Grubber Kick]

Surly Sironen is back next week.

And goodness knows we could use some surly right about now....

 

[Moops]

Come on guys - we've seen both Lane and Winterstein have absolute blinders at times as well. For some reason, across the board, intensity, energy and effort is lacking or has at least tapered off.

Links?

Gifty could play 12 with Jake at Lock. At the very least he'd be on the bench (Jake). Gifty was an edge forward, while Jake is a middle forward. They could play together. What a backrow, Choc, Gift and Jake.

Tom would be on the wing in the 2013 side over Wolfie. He'd also be a centre chance for 2008 over Bell. Bell was very handy though, so I wouldn't complain if they stuck with Bell.

I think winterstein tore it up in the Hong Kong sevens one year.

I think that would have been in one of the Wan Chai girly bars post game.

The Wanch...China Fleet Club...those were the days!

Was that the quarter final victory against Singapore?

 

[The Artist]

Gifty and Choc were bloody hard bastards
Will there ever be players like that in our club again?...
Prob not but F*%$#$#K I HOPE SO
