    ... and what exactly changes starting this week?

    excuses excuses

    just when some of us thought he had started to turn the corner with some above average performances, he turns to shit again. you cannot trust this bloke to have a good game

      I don't think it's any secret that SKD is targeted by many teams with his feeble defense.

      At the moment it isn't exactly affecting our team so dramatically that it has cost us a match. Had Minichiello not caught that kick over the top by Hayne and ran 50m to score a try, then it may have been a different story last week.

      To put things into perspective, with Moga not ready/underdone, and no one really setting the world on fire in reggies/U20s, robbo will not swap/drop SKD any time soon. If Moga comes back into reggies soon and has a blinder in a couple of games in a row, then that will probably change.

        kenny will start scoring again soon, if those words are from his mouth, then i hope he stays and becomes our most prolificvtry scorer, there would be plenty of clibs after him willing to pay at least what he is on now, cmon kenny show us some form that has bagged you 70+ tries already.

          Comfortable is exactly what he is. Obviously I can't watch the games easily living in Madrid, but what I have seen of him is his vintage self. Lazy, ball hog and dumb.

            You should be able to get free live streams on NRL.com.

            Assuming ofcourse you can find a decent Internet connection.

              SKD is the New Zealand Chris Walker.

              Do you think the Super Sub Stuart Webb would loan out his missus for a pep talk?

              Legitimately, nothing Howard Sattleresque.

                It is not just SKD they are targeting in defence, but lets just brush over the fact the bloke inside him has been just as bad with his terrible reads and efforts in defence.

                    Skd's defence has been awful, i can accept, however it has been no worse than the Teflon Kids inside him, thankfully we got away with that Eels game and i could chuckle instead of throwing things after his 4 missed tackles on a reserve grade player that lead to a try.

                    Whats good for one is good for everyone else

                      I'm not trying to be critical, but is it true that you suggested we sign Sandow, when he was off contract???

                      He's a defensive powerhouse isn't he ????

                        That's a pretty fair assessment.

                        TBH SKD's contract finished at the most inconvenient of times. We had just made a grandfinal, he had played in the season of his life, and he had been around our club for a while. At the time 375K was actually a good price. Since then though (2011, 2012 and now) he has been worth no where near that price. He hasn't found the tryline regularly, whether it be through injury, form etc, and his defense has been shockingly elementary at best.

                        I don't think that our recruitment people deserve any blame for re-signing him in 2011, because had we not re-signed him, every man and his dog would have rubbished our club for their recruitment techniques at the time.

                          I said Sandow is a better and much more creative halfback than Pearce, if i wanted to sign a halfback that was Creative and had the ability to win a tight game for his team, Sandow would get the nod over Pearce.

                          To be honest, i don't judge a half on the amount of tackles he makes and doesn't make.

                          I used it in this example because apparently it is one of the His greatest attributes, when in fact on current form it isn't.

                            Pearce has his shortcomings, but you talk about "current form" but then say Sandow is a much better and much more creative halfback than Pearce.

                            You could be the biggest clown on here.

                              I answered a question, previously i have said Sandow is an better attacking half, hence why i quoted Davo's comment.

                              The "Current Form" relates to Pearce v SKD's defence, in which case neither is better than the other, they are both turnstyles and reading the play poorly ATM.

                              Would you like to borrow a red nose and wig???

                                No, apparently you judge a halfback on whether he has personally offended you in a bar, or slept with your girlfriend, or rushed through closing doors on your train, or whatever it was he did to you that makes you so obsessed.

                                You are a one trick pony Rusty.
