Cheers, I use those two. Thought you might have had another secret source.

Memory. I've got to use it somehow before I get old and forget lol

I think what did Wolf in was the betting. From then on he was basically used in first grade as a last resort.
His days were numbered no matter what he played like last year.

Agree @HoldenV8 . I've always thought following the betting the powers that be stamped him 'never to play in 1st grade again' and the only reason he did was due to a shortage of fit players.
I think it unfair to crucify him for one game, which happened to be the '13 GF, when many of his great games outweighed it. Several times last year I watched him in NSW Cup and thought he should return to NRL.
I've always loved Wolfman - for his character, playing ability and, most of all his courage. Imo its a damn shame he's unwanted and at 29 has retired way too young for no good reason.

I think we should have kept wolfy as backup on a base level contract especially with gutho and Hiku leaving.

I would have rather that Wolfman tried to get a Super League contract than retire. He still had a fair bit to offer and in the SL he could have become a sensation.

Nick Yakich - 52 tries, 74 games (70.27%)
Scott Donald - 48 tries, 68 games (70.58%)
Ken Irvine - 41 tries, 60 games (68.33%)

Interesting that the wingers with the top conversion rates were all genuine speedsters. Speed does kill - opposition defences!
