@sneakdefreak Are the Knights collecting Kiwi hookers?
Maybe they can send us one in return. Griffin will be good to fill the white guy spot vacated by Simon.
Who's coming in to the Warriors that's sucking up the cap that was free the past two years?

If you can believe The Mole on twitter, it appears that the Warriors can't fit Isaac Luke under the cap and he will sign with the Newcastle Knights.
I'm not unhappy about that, especially if he was on good coin

He was basically the reason we made the finals.

One good year out of 3 for us? Which Isaac turns up for us if we give him a juicy contract?

At least next year I wont have the disappointment of us going out in the first week of finals. 1 in 3 is good enough for Johnson to collect his $1m.

We know SJ is a bit flaky. You couldn't accuse him of spending too much time at the pie cart

Bahahaha, so just being a blouse is inherently better than being a fatty? Hot missus though.

@Nepia I heard Kata is getting a pay rise.

he absolutely was not "basically the reason".

Bah, semantics. Without him we don't make the finals.

I'm not sold on that. He was only good when everyone else was good. Luke looked better this year because we got good starts to our sets from the back 3, and our forwards regularly found their bellies. In games where this didn't happen, Luke completely disappeared. He's almost as much of a downhill skier as SJ.
Yes, he had a good year, but i don't consider him a catalyst of our wins.

Ah well, agree to disagree, I don't think we get close to the finals without him - Green was getting the organising credit early on but in reality Luke should have got a bunch of that credit.
Anyway, depends on who they replace him with or if Roache is going to be a good un (I've not seen enough to really know).
-
Nathaniel Roache was always expected to be the starting hooker in 2019 so it look's like the Warriors are #trustingtheprocess
But Roache is coming off back surgery which ruled him out of the 2018 season so it's more likely he will not be the replacement (back injuries never seem to fully heal). I'm hereby putting my support on Mason Lino and Karl Lawton playing at rake.
-
@sneakdefreak Isn't Lino also rumoured to be going to Newcastle.
-
@nepia Everyone is rumoured to be going to Newcastle because they have so much cap space.

I don't think Lino would take up much would he?
I wonder if they need a midget prop who plays centre?
-
Lino is very average. If someone wants to pay him, then good luck to him.
Could be a very interesting off-season. The Cowboys have freed up an enormous wedge of cap space to have a crack at some established players (Valentine Holmes most openly, but possibly Cam Munster as well).

Footy finals!!
Tonight will be a spiteful grub off. Dark arts masters vs blatant grubs. These games are generally pretty close because both teams play very similar styles. No Gallen decreases the Sharks grub factor by a million, and also decreases their number of slow 4th tackle hit ups. Melbourne should win, but i somehow can't shake the feeling that the Sharks will get it. I might even put my money where my mouth is. Either way, a great player will finish their career tonight.
Tomorrow we get the Sydney derby. East v South. The Roosters have stacked their team with approximately 47 rep players who are apparently being paid in food stamps. The Bunnies have to ignore the media focusing on Sam Burgess's cock. Surely the Roosters win this (or, according to Steve Roach, it proves Cooper Cronk is no better than Mitchell Pearce. I think it's great the way Fox Sports gives jobs to the mentally deficient), but this Rabbits team can score big and quick. This will be the most entertaining game of the weekend.
I hope there is a fight.
