Fullback ?? interesting. I thought they were grooming Holmes for that.

Pearsell is leaving

Shame really. I was hoping to hear the commentators:

Parcell passes to Pearsell, Pearsell passes to Parcell.

Lets Go After Teo Too. The Koala Groncos are trying to get him back . They will do anything to win Grumpy Wayne another Title

Why are we losing so many of our Under 20s

Because our club is ****e, deny it all you like but it is the truth.

 

[Hamster Huey]

Any clues as to who the source was?

P.S. I don't hate Rumours. Go Your Own Way was a great song.

And pretty much the theme song chosen by Penn for our 2015 coaching/support staff.

Care to give us your views on which club(s) are good, well-managed clubs with great culture? Let me guess - Chooks Storm and Brisbane?

 

[ManlyMatt]

Just said on the radio that Flanagan hopes to sign him long term. So he hasn't signed anywhere.

 

[Eagles2nv]

Looks like it was off the mark.

The headline is misleading. While I imagine he is more likely to sign with sharks that article states he is "poised" to stay and play Fullback.

Wonder though if Manly offer his a full time 5/8 spot alongside DCE, might sway him.

 

[Eagles2nv]

Doesn't seem like a massive vote of confidence when your coach says you can shift positions and go into a three way battle for that spot.

This seems more like an article to try to put out the fire. They are close to resigning him but it will be announced in a month? Just do it and announce it if it's that close.

From what I have seen Holmes is a better option at FB. They also have Barba who is a natural FB.

Seems like its a desperation move to hold onto him. Why did they go after townesend if they had Bird anyway.

Yeah it would have been like us saying we will resign Tom Turbo to play centre but he also has to compete with our top centre prospect to play there. I'd rather believe he mail about him wanting out because he wants to play 5/8...

 

[Snake]

I'd be surprised if Bird has the blinding speed and skill to be a lethal attacking option at fullback. Unless you grow up catching those bombs and getting down low for those grubbers, it's a huge gamble to manufacture a former lock/centre into arguably the most gruelling position on the football field. I think it's fraught with danger!

 

[double hoops]

He's not a full back or winger neither. I Don't believe it.

I remember last December when we were close to re-signing DCE and Foreign.
I call bull***t.

 

[Brookvale2015]

Just desperation to draw intrest away

Or when Chez was signed sealed and delivered to the Tits

 

[double hoops]

This is where Bozo it at his best. He seems to sniff these things out well. If ur interested in playing for NSW or Australia BOZO would be a bloke you want on your side Jackie Howe Birdie Boy.
