Originally posted by fletch View Postreports out today suggest SBW is not joining the Roosters till the 18th of february, surely that must throw into doubt any involvement in the foundation cup which is only 5 days after he starts full time with us.
foxsports will be spewing after deciding to show the match live if SBW doesn't take the field.Born and bred in the eastern suburbs.

I demand he finishes his fight and get on a concord and get to the SFS and run a billion laps to make up for the pre-Cumm he's missed so far.
Then he can sleep for a few minutes and apologize on Twatter to everyone for being such a lazy carnt.
Then he can go to Easts for a few milks.
The FlogPen .
You know it makes sense.

Their opinions will change when he becomes a match winner.

He may score a couple of tries ,set up a few more,make 25 tackles but they would still harp on about how he missed an easy tackle or spilled the ball or pushed for a near impossible pass."It's these little things, they can pull you under

Originally posted by redwhiteblue View PostI don't hate SBW personally as I've never met him. I hate the situation, the overblown publicity, the way other players are forced to live in the shadow of this so called larger than life saviour, the travelling circus, the media attention and undue pressure my beloved team is now forced to live under, all because of one person who is yet to lace a boot on for us. When I start seeing a valuable and contribution of substance towards my team from this person, yes I will willingly change my tune, not nitpick.
I'm sure membership has increased, sponsorship increases, the lift in others in the squad knowing he is coming.
He is arguably the most gifted forward to play the game in a long time. I don't like the way in which he has signed ( union and boxing) but to get him we had to do it. It also helped $$$ wise aswell. Would it be any different if we signed say Thurston and he injured himself in the Tri nations and missed a ore season because of that.
Players miss ore season all the time it's not like he is doing nothing

I just think that due to his non existent pre season, we'll be lucky to get 15 good minutes out of him for the first half dozen games. not really what you're looking for from your 'marquee signing'.
I think that by July, when he's signed back with Union, there will probably be a poll on here called 'was it worth it?' The answer will be 'no'.......
Just picking up Ralphy's slack for the next week or so.....
