Paul Kent: Sydney Roosters coach Trent Robinson the buy of the year

[Guest]

How can George Burgess be a top signing when he played under 20's and first grade for South Sydney last season?

I thought George was awarded with a FG contract for this year, and made his debut in round 1?
Apologies if im wrong.

Ooh. Ooh. I can answer that.

It's because he was behind Rothfield, Ritchie and Kent in the pecking order, and there's a league vacuum at Fairfax?

Webster is more a union man than League and that is Fairfax's target audience.

How sad is it that Rothfield is classed as a league reporter. He's more gossip columnist/sleaze mongerer/Sharks apologist then out and out league reporter.

Interesting that he's laid off bagging Gus Gould/Ivan Cleary/Panthers rescue operation lately. Could be that Gus knows a tad more about footy than Lucky Phil

Lol, the more things change the more they stay the same mate.

Just glad I don't miss reading that poor excuse for a newspaper.

Gus may be a beestingheadedagendafueledknob but at least he knows his shit when it comes to footy.

3. James Maloney - Roosters

4. funch - melbourn

5. brad taka - Titans

6. Michael Jennings - Roosters

8. mose mos - Panthers

9. onsite teeth supplies - Souths

10. tommy symonds - Manly


A few bang-for-your-buck signings include Sam Moa, Justin Horo and Jack Buchanan.

Flops of the year include Dave Taylor, Tony Williams and Braith Anasta.
