Brett FInch Try SOO.2006.vs.Qld.Game.1



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brett_Finch

On 14 April 2009, Finch signed a one year contract with the Melbourne Storm. The Storm will be his fourth club in eleven NRL seasons. Storm coach Craig Bellamy commented: "He will add depth and experience to our squad and gives us further options in the halves."[5]

He got his revenge beating his old team, Paramatta, in the 2009 grand final, setting up 2 tries.[6]

Im waiting for Bondi-boy to post the article describing Finch;s brilliant inside balls to the head that cost Easts 3 tries in 2004.

idiot.

[Bansai Pipeline]

That's one player that didn't deserve a premiership.

I said he was ok and tried 100% every game.

I didn't say he was the world's best player, and like all players didn't make mistakes.
The present one just tosses the ball anywhere much of the time.

If in 2009 he set up two tries and played well in the GF then he did deserve a premiership.

[The Brain]

That would be a killer Meloneous ,Finch and Anasta halves pairing and Paul green off the bench

Or the one that cost Steve Meredith a first grade career!

This Paul Green?

Trick is to get two good halves in their prime, and coach them well.

'Every' pass is catchable if you're good enough.

After the 2002 GF Craig Wing should've been left at halfback for the rest of his career.
But oh no, that would've been 'too easy'.

Or the one that cost Steve Meredith a first grade career!

Steve Meredith was never a first-grader and Finch had nothing to do with him never becoming one.

That is an urban myth created by Bruce Lee and yourself, Vasco. No matter how many times you say it, it still does not make it true...

You mean the Steve Meredith that won best forward/prospect in Reserves? Yeah...he wasnt that great. But we'll never know...THANKS TO FINCH!

[Pass the Ball]

You always had such a hard-on for this guy..Pumping up guys in reserve grade was a real thing of yours...

Did you follow his progress through Windsor Wolves after Easts no longer wanted him..

Never close to being a first-grader...

I never followed his progress. I never followed anyone's at Windsor wolves. The knee injury he had wasnt exactly a broken nail. And plenty less injuries have destroyed careers.

I never pump up any reserve grader or Under 20 unlike most here, unless I see something. Seems I wasnt the only one that thought the kid had potential.

But lets change the subject for a moment and concentrate how you managed to land that giant chip on your shoulder.

[Yak]

I always rated Steve Meredith. Thought he should have been given an opportunity a year and a half earlier than he did. Looked like a real clubman and would have fitted into our pack well at the time. Unfortunately by the time he went to Windsor his knee was shot and I think he'd lost a bit of faith after a few very good years in reserves without reward.

And Melon I think everyone on here that pumps up young prospects sees something in them. Some people are just looking more frequently than others.
