If I was Bellamy, former Drizzle player or not, if Cronk is playing next week (and no doubt they will give him every chance to be even close to fit enough), I'd be telling all the forwards to be running hard at him all game long.

Just frees up Keary to do his own thing with a refreshed Mitchell
Cronk's onfield coaching was so obvious last night.
He was telling his players where to go and it freed them up from thinking
manly al
First Grader
Judging by the jersey era , looks like this caption was pre 1970 "s . Beetson is in a old Balmain jersey, Bozo and Bill in Manly jerseys , Looks like John Raper but don 't recognize his jersey [ neither Balmain or Manly ] Could well be Moses as the other dude , maybe in an old Souths jersey . Maybe some of the players were super imposed on the photo and it may have been some type of a promotional caption or something of this nature . Raper never played for Manly and of course also big Artie

Simple, target Keary as well. The bloke can't tackle anyway so why not?
Rugby league is a game where you find your opponents weaknesses and you work on exploiting them. You don't just focus on one, you hit them all if possible. That was a big part of Souffs problem last night. All they seemed to do in attack was....go left, go left. It was apparent after 30 minutes that wasn't working.....yet for the next 50 after that it was go left, go left.
Uncle Nick will be pissed, pays 2 million to get Cronk to win a Premiership for him and the bugger gets injured in the penultimate game!!

There was an interesting comment on that from Gus last night on Nein. He said that Cronk had been brought in to win them a premiership because they didn't have that premiership winning half who could get them over the line.
Are they admitting that the Chooks were virtually handed 2013 and that Pearce wasn't seen as a real premiership winner?
I dont think so
I dont think it is Moses
Bill Hamilton
Reserve Grader
I think it is Brian James, the photo looks like it was taken at either the City firsts training or the Kangaroos training for the world cup in 1968.

On the night of February 9, 1968, premiers South Sydney hosted rugby league's first touch football tournament at Redfern Oval.
Only two Sydney teams did not participate – Wests were probably still at Lidcombe's Railway Hotel and the Bulldogs were a no-show.
Jack Gibson was the coach of the Roosters, Dave Bolton was in the Balmain team, Dick Thornett and Barry Rushworth ran out for the Eels, as did Barry Beath and Dick Huddart for the Dragons, while the Sea Eagles fielded a strong team, including Bob Fulton, Frank Stanton, Denis Ward and Fred Jones.
South Sydney paraded the pride of their 1967 premiership team, coached by Clive Churchill – John Sattler, Ron Coote, Bob McCarthy, Ivan Jones, Jim Lisle, Bobby Honan and Brian James.
Looks like Kevin Ryan in the Artie photo
