MESSAGE TO SCOTT PENN RE GREG BIRD

[Terry Zarsoff]

I doubt that his image will help us attract sponsors either

Both figuratively and literally. Let's face it, he has a head like a chewed Mintie. Or if you like, a smashed schooner glass.

Anyone remember Greg Bird kneeing a player in the head at The Sharks? That's the kind of bloke they are entertaining.

To acquire that, we give up a young, Manly at heart Jamie Buhrer, who is all class both on and off the field.

If Bird wasn't a footballer, he'd be spending time with John Hopoate in the clink.

I was watching that game. It was such a low act that I've never forgotten about it.

 

[robbiea]

Has he replied yet ?

 

[Wombat64]

I reckon next that they'll sign Bubbler Boy so we have the set of the most f*ckwits going round in any club.

Appeals to Bob though. He always defends Les Boyd's 1983 SOO performance when he smashed Brohman's jaw. Brohman probably missed out on his only chance at an Australian jumper that year.

 

[Bird of Prey]

Bird is a grub of the highest order if he plays in Manly colours Don't know where I will look next season. This tool and Gallen are the reason I never support NSW in the SOO the role models for all Neanderthals that play rugby league.

I find the physical difference from the NRL and Super League quite strange, it's the same sport and plenty of em in England have the same physique to the Australian players, so why are they playing such a softer brand of rugby league, it just confuses me

It's where NRL players go to die.

If you don't have the skill, then it doesn't matter how big or fast you are.

By skill, I mean they haven't been given the best education in terms of the basics of the game. They look like a bunch of school boys out there.

They are so soft in defence. They are lazy in attack.

As I've said before, in another post, when they call Mark Minichiello the most explosive forward in the competition, then you've hit rock bottom, and then whipped out an industrial sized drill to dig even deeper.

 

[Spuds Bodyguard]

Thank **** for that...

.........waits for someone to come out and say 'no one wants to come to us anymore, we can't attract good players, everyone knows we're a basket case, wahhhhhh...........'

 

[wombatgc]

Those crazy frogs.....and I thought our recruitment was f@cked up....

 

[Chip and Chase]

They had to replace Carney with someone....big shoes to fill but I think Bird is up to it.

What a pissing contest that'd be!

 

[rifraff]

After four pages of mostly bagging recruitment and management for a player maybe signing.

Any chance of praising them for not signing them..

No, I didn't think so.

The sky is on fire!

 

[The Wheel]

We didn't make an offer to Bird according to the Daily today..

Agree 200% this recent bag for rumors is horrible and lends credence to the tabloids

And the bag of rumours drive your site Dan.

They may be totally imaginary catastrophes, and our responses may seem illogical, dysfunctional, painful to read, and somewhat insane, but the rumours - especially bad news rumours - sure gets the hits. And the facts - especially perceived good news facts (like Bird not signing) - get almost none.

So yes, just like the tabloids.

It used to I track the general mood of the site based on setiment analysis and in the past bad news and losses saw a huge uptick in hits, this year bucked the trend completely, more hits came with good news and wins maybe that has something to do with the downturn in team performance though

Elie Asmar: What happened to Bozo's promise earlier in the year of landing an international forward?

Lurker: He was talking about Greg Bird… he flew away. Chance for Kev Proctor although Titans the front runners.
