David Gower

[Frogz]

Reports around that Gower has signed a 1 year deal with Parramatta....Another promising career to turn to sh1t

 

[Brookie]

gee we're letting go of a lot of props... (a position we need depth in)

 

[Stevo]

What are you on about? We've signed about 45 new props

YESSSS !!!!!! Good stuff.

I thought Gower was under-rated. He was not given enough game time at Manly. He'll be a regular in 'Matta's top 13, so good luck to him.

Agree, not quite Manly material, but an honest toiler.

Thanks for the memories David

Brad Arthur poaching our players....lol.
If u couldn't get a run at Parra you'd give up, I reckon.

Eels sign NRL grand final prop Gower

Good luck David. I wonder if they are going to sign Brearley,Gatting and Gooch as well.

Never really big enough for first grade.

At least when he retires he can say that he played in a grand final. He won't get that chance at Parra

 

[Silver Eagle]

He wont be missed at manly surely with the amount of clubs he has played at and still cant crack a full time position

 

[sheridanstand78]

Parramatta, a place where rugby league players careers go to die, you would have to be desparate to play for them.

 

[IQofalimabean]

Joining any ESL club would be better than joining Parramatta and being replaced by some talented youngster. At least in the English competition an average player could have a decent career.

 

[1969]

We won't miss him, best of luck at dozenMatta anyway, looking on the up and up there.

"Grand Final Prop" ????? - shouldn't it be "5 Minute underutilised Grand Final Bench Warmer"

 

[bones]

Never really big enough for first grade.

Really? The guy is massive.

Never really good enough is more accurate.

 

[DSM5]

I too thought he was big. Underutilized is right. He could poke his head through and offload, but I think Hasson showed more promise.

 

[tookey]

He seems small in comparison to other fg props.

Certainly no bigger than Sao and Jake T and they are much younger.

 

[Stevo]

Wrong.

Gower - 190cm - 105kg
Sao - 186cm - 109kg
Trbojevic - 185cm - 106kg

---

Lawrence - 187cm - 106kg

 

[Chip and Chase]

Did they weigh their fat or muscle ??
