Taka looks sharp, Symonds getting a run............

[Parkway_Drive]

Taka dropped many balls, he is no centre. Jennings would have scored 6 against that Canberra team. Symonds was always decent but is he better than Guerra and Maubs? No. Maybe he's better than Cordner though. Cordner hasn't shown me anything yet.

Do I detect a touch of sarcasm here

I thought Langi was ultra impressive in the NYC against the Warriors, though its a huge gap between NYC and NRL.

Your nick is bravehalfbackpearce yet Cordner has shown you nothing yet ??? he has just turned 20, he will play more origin games than The Teflon Kid.

You really do not have a clue

[Guest]

Cordner isn't better than any of the backrowers we released nor Maubs and Guerra. I'd love to be proven wrong though. He does not deserve the hype that he receives on here and he does not deserve the vice captaincy either. Difference of opinion though. He's just a younger Luke O'Donnell.

I argue with alot of posters however i have never said this to any of them until now.

You are are complete farkwit!!!!

He has been seen as an immense talent throughout his young career to date. Will definitely end up in the backrow but he is a type of backrower that we dont have (5/8 style lock)

Yes, I would of cleared Arona before Taka or Symonds, but too late now.

[roosterproud]

we will buy back taka in a few years

I'm pretty sure Symonds was re-signed on decent coin when he last negotiated his contract. Far more than Arona.

If getting rid of Taka and/or Symonds was the direct result of signing LOD, who would you prefer?

[Guest]

With the team we have now,,,we'll get more use out of LOD

We have plenty of those style backrowers in muabs sbw guerra fpn

[Bansai Pipeline]

Taka is a natural ball player.

You can't teach what he has.

Lock or 5/8 is his position.

I was a bit hesitant to back the move to get rid of Taka and Symonds in favour of bringing LOD to the club.

However after watching LOD on saturday I think it was a wise choice. LOD did everything at 100%. He ran the ball up without hesitation, he threw himself into every tackle, and he just generally tries to dominate the man opposing him anytime he was involved in the play.

Hopefully his presence at the club will be a rocket up Kennedy's arse to pull his finger out and start playing like a man instead of a boy, because his spot on the 17 will not be safe once Tasi is fit

[Guest]

Taka or Symonds will not take a hitup out of our end. LOD will.

That is the difference.

Taka will get slaughtered playing 13. He gets gassed after 10.

I must say that was a neat play by Tommy yesterday to set up the manly winger.
