Nick Wanted Him But Trent & Peter Didn't

Do you know something we don't Turk?

Youre about 7 years too late there Slappa.

We signed Danny Nutley from Castleford and he was a nightmare.

This story is a complete fantasy. How do you think its author got his inside information? Would Robinson or O'Sullivan boast to him how they got their way over the Club Chairman? Would they be that stupid? Would Politis lower himself to even speak to this guy?

It is all made up. Just like the original story that he was coming here.

[Roosterfarian]

The less influence Nick Politis has over our recruitment, the better off the club will be. It should be left to the experts, and those who actually have to deal with the players on a daily basis.

Tedesco is not a player we need, and at the moment you'd be paying top dollar for him, even though he's actually played less than 1/2 dozen decent first grade games and has a history of injuries.

He is exactly the type of player we would have signed a few years ago. I'm hoping those days are over.

If it wasnt for Uncle Nick we wouldn't have SBW though NC.

I rest my case.

I'm enjoying watching Maubs play in his rightful position at the moment, and look forward to 2015 when he's not relying on injury/suspension to do so.

What sort of deluded world are you living in, NC?

No SBW in 2013, no premiership. It's as simple as that.

You don't know that for sure - none of us do. Even without SBW we still had gained coach Robbo, Jennings and Maloney to name just the major signings. We have no clue as to what the team could have achieved minus SBW.

And I'm pretty sure we have yet to lose a game when the bloke doesn't play. Hopefully that continues on Friday night.

Unlike in the past, we are no longer a one man team. You take one player out, even a marquee one, and another steps up. Which bodes well for the future.

Of course nothing is certain.

But I'd have given us about a 1/50 chance of winning it last year without SBW.

His contribution both on and off the field was immense.

He gave the team instant belief, which they've now carried over in his absence.

That was more Robbos influence than anything else

[Tommy Smith]

I believe it was both.

SBW is a player in the mould of a Freddy or Joey in terms of his genius.

And the professionalism and winning mentality he brought to the club, combined with a brilliant young coach, is what changed the culture so quickly.
