Rumours.. Cronk agreed to terms a few months back. Pearce to 14 or shipped to Souths

Gee if Cronk does ink a deal with us a few contributors here are going to end up with egg and possibly some steak all over their faeces.

[QUOTE=rented tracksuit;n713340]Pearcey s solid enough to get us respectably through the season but struggles to grab a game and influence the result in our favor when he's needed. For me, that's not something that can be fixed but something that just comes naturally to some.



hes been told its his footy team , he owns it. If only he would take ownership. The biggest thing missing in his game are the big plays in the big moments that guys in the jt , johns, lockey etc mold alway seem to come up with. Now they are superstars , mitch is not but he is certainly a first class half back im happy to support. Sometimes he tests my patience but its easy to blame the chief playmaker. There are other areas we need to inprove on to get better results as a team

If he owns it then he better sell it.

I don't agree. I think there are huge expectations on Pearce. He is expected to be good enough to defeat superstars such as Thurston and Cronk. He consistently comes up short and this seems to be the basis of a lot of ill feeling towards him. Halfbacks are meant to be smart and wily. Pearce is just not that guy.

And if he's NOT a SUPERSTAR....why aren't we getting one? Are we to accept a mediocre player just because 'he's a nice guy and tries hard'? Shoulda kept Finchy too.

Where can we return our rented tracksuits BTW?

Donate them to the Mardi Gras.

My thoughts too! Well summarised.

No one is expecting Pearce to be a superstar, but he surely isn't a consistent half back. That is all we need.

Exactly. Because we don't have a consistent forward pack. When we do, we have a consistent half back.
It amazes me that it don't matter what team it is, when the crap hits the fan, ppl always go straight to the half back for blame

[John Corey]

I have always stuck up for Pearce and said I am happy we have him. But that Cows game was the last straw for me.

JT do u think Napa and Jared did their job against the Cows? You think sST or Guerra did? We had 2 decent forwards. Liu and Cordner.

Will they then be wearing, can I say it?
Will they then be wearing rented tracksuits?

He wouldnt have the funds.Maybe donated tracksuits?

So would the donated tracksuits be the ex rented tracksuits?

I've seen our forwards win many battles and get field position only to have our half put a poor kick in at the end which gives away a 7 tackle set or doesn't get a repeat. This has happened many many times.
I bet if you look at other top halves, their ratio of decent last tackle kicks in the opposition 20 are a lot better than Mitchell's.
Even that field goal he finally kicked against the Dragons...seriously, we were all so happy for him to finally win us a game after 10 years or whatever of trying.... it took ten years!!!!!!!

seams a bit too classy for that dude.
