    Considering hookers became obsolete with the abolishion of the real scrum, quoting Smith as the best hooker the game has ever seen is premature to say the least.

      RTS or Folau for F/Back next season
      How would uncle Nick fit Folau in?

        He killed it. Didnt hit many bullseyes, but many close ones. Came 2nd as mentioned

        Having said that, anyone who has done an ounce of physical activity or ball games knows that passing the ball running is more difficult than standing still, balanced, and passing. Mini struggles with the former, which is a lot more important..

          He got plenty of bullseyes, his problem was that he was to slow throwing them. If he threw as many as most contestants do each week he would've killed it. In fact he stopped a second or two early and had time to throw one more ball which would have given him the top score (he missed top place by 2).
          ...and that stupid Erin Molan gets in the way each week and throws balls across the players as they are trying to pass ....she really is clueless !

                    • I'd love to see Mini hit 300 games become the most capped Rooster. Had that utter **** Macdougall not pile driven him into the ground he'd had sewn up that record a couple years back. Assuming he were to play out this season and next injury-free, he'd have a chance to take the record.

                      Providing they switch RTS to fullback (this part is not negotiable) then I could see him going around for 1 more year. Having said that, when you consider we still need to try and slot Moga somewhere into this team somewhere (assuming we don't want to lose him) then Mini might find it hard getting another extension.

                      Besides the obvious in Fittler, Mini is my favourite all time rooster so I am very biased in my opinion. I'll simply leave it in the hands of our coach. He is much smarter than any of us and will make the right call.

                          They should not be referred to as hookers anymore, as you say since the abolishion of the scrum. Rather the No.9's should only now be referred to as dummy halves.

                            Hawk I'm surprised by your participation in the proliferation of the appalling attempt of spelling abolition!

                                No worries Pie & I accept your apology. I've pretty much given up on expecting any level of spelling or grammar on the interweb, but couldn't let Hawkeye's acceptance of that one go by without comment, don't worry about me, I'm just a pedant with these type of things, I blame my obsessive/compulsive disorder, but who knows, it could just be the flu too!
