We had Jennings and Fergo in the centres and they starved. It's criminal.

That it was, not sure why Macca didn't involve them more?

What a ridiculous argument. It is like saying an opening bowler doesn't need to be fast because Glenn McGrath took 600 wickets bowling in the 130's.. Different players have different attributes, there is only one Jamie Lyon, he gets away with a lack of speed with guile and strength. 99% of Centres don't have Lyon's skill so need other attributes, more speed being one of them, Jennings is one of those. If Lyon was playing for the Roosters in the 2013 Grand Final, Maloney's grubber with 12 to go hits the ANZ Stadium back fence, thankfully Jennings is a flyer off the mark and he scored and we won.

By the way, I never knew you were Ray Warren, helps explain a few things.

I don't think you don't realise it but you just agreed with me.

I never said speed was irrelevant I just said it was too simplistic to only look at speed.

It's actually based on a rumour, not a hypothetical. Look the 2 up in the dictionary.

I'm yet to see the rumour that Cordner will be getting a pay rise in 2016.

I saw a forum member hypothetically theorise about why we'd release Jennings for Copley but not a rumour suggesting it.

Maybe because Macca isn't good enough to be in such a high profile position in our Club!

I don't think Ferguson's issue this year was lack of involvement he just had a really interrupted year with injuries and probably only played a dozen of so games where he was at 90% or above. And even a handful of those were without Pearce who he'd seemed to worked up a decent combo with.

When he was on I thought we used him well, in fact our right edge with RTS wrapping around and Skidsy on the wing was the highlight of our season if you ask me.

One thing I do remember was Fergo making Copely look hopeless when he beat him and set up a try for Elliot.

Leading by example is exactly what your captain should do. And I don't think he speaks as poorly as you infer.

That clip appears to support the stories I'm told of Pearce off the field. Hence my earlier post that I wouldn't be surprised if he lost the captaincy.

[John Corey]

At Parra?

Yep. Word is Parra trying to create a Jennings family get together

That was nearly 8 years ago, pretty sure he's grown up a bit since then

Captain?? The bloke speaks like Rocky Balboa and is about as sharp as a spoon, his leadership is best expressed by example.

Have you heard Friend speak? He's painful to listen to

He beat the Kiwi's[current world champs] and did a good job of shutting Sheck down in the process, but he is no longer our attack coach so in 2016 we'll see what happens..

Mate just a little piss take between me and BC..

You'd think so wouldn't you.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and suggest Robbo knows what he's doing when selecting his captain.

Big call, I know. But I just get that feeling...
