They've been listening to Vautin or his great mate Hadley.

Albury game showed his try savings attitude 😡
Do fans on other club forums pay out on their players as much as we do? We are not winning games atm but I'm not going to be negative about a club legend like Snake. I don't hold it against him that he's Foz's friend or that he was p*ssed off over his brother.
Heal well Snake. He adds a lot to our team when he's on the field.

I don't think Snake is out for the season. He'll probably be back this or next week.
However.....
IF he is out, at least unlike 2009 and 2010 we actually have a couple of fullbacks capable of stepping in, though truth be told they don't have his attacking skills and try production would most likely be down as a result. Back then Robbo stepped up in 2009 and then Des used Ben Farrar in 2010.
Peta Hiku is the incumbent NZ fullback having played both last years Anzac Test and was part of the Kiwis winning Four Nations team. An international player is not a bad 'replacement' and I'm not sure if many NRL teams would say no to having the current Kiwi fullback playing for them.
Tom Trbojevic is a gun young fullback. Doesn't have Snake's experience, or Peta's for that matter, but he would add some much needed speed and enthusiasm to our backline. Already shown he can handle first grade and is safe under the high ball.

G'day all, I was going to post something I was told on sunday by my golfmate but didn't end up posting because I didn't want to post unsubstantiated rumour,and I didn't think it was really credible but it did concern Brett Stewart.I still find it hard to believe but my mate has no axe to grind and said that's what he was told and he does have many football contacts.I guess time will tell.

Hi Mike
You can send a PM of the rumour to individual posters rather than post it on the general forum

Me 2 thanks Mike.😉
G'day all,Mate like I say I wasn't going to post anything as we have enough to worry about at the moment,but as Stevo asked the question I thought I would say I too have heard a rumour.Whether Stevo has heard the same thing I was told I don't know and i'd prefer to leave it at that for the moment.Sorry I can't be more specific but I will say I didn't really find it credible and hopefully it is rumour and Brett will be back fit and firing sooner rather than later.Spit it out Mike. Don't leave us hanging!!
cheers mike

I totally agree, Brett has been dignified in his silence while all around him has imploded. Brett deserves a lot better! He is getting older and yeah injuries take their toll on him. He still has much to offer the club.
G'day all, Not holding out Mavin ,it just takes me that long to type with one finger.Keyboards aren't my go much happier with a pen.

Thanks for the reply Mike.
Reading between the lines I'm guessing you heard the rumour that Snake was out for the season??
Time will tell I guess.
