What if SBW finished the season with us?

[bondi.boy]

Saw Wolfpack boss on news saying that he would rip up SBW's contract so he could go home and play here as the Wolfpack won't be playing in 2020 but will be in 2021.

All I know is that any bloody media outlet reporting on SBW coming back here has the outrage of the rest of the leagues fans at an all time high. Feels good to see the hate as strong as it is right now

I'm not sure how much the bloke has left in the tank though. Defensively he looked pretty good with Toronto in the little action he did see. Got through a mountain of work on the defensive end. He looked rusty in attack though. It makes me wonder how much game time he's going to need at what? 35 years old? Especially to find that crucial game fitness

My only thing is that if we get J-Moz AND SBW then we HAVE to win!!! Like imagine if we grabbed them and still lost...

I reckon those who think he’s gonna be past it are off their heads. Surrounded by a quality team and system he will be just as good as ever I believe. A few games in a battling super league team is a completely different thing to what he will be coming into here.

Just been reading comments on the vermin site. Along with all the usual drivel about the salary cap, some are suggesting that the NRL is letting the Roosters "destroy the very fabric of the game". Others are suggesting that the Roosters are all on performance enhancing drugs and that they are preparing Sonny's dose as we speak.

Wait until they find out this whole pandemic thing was a Nick Politis plot.

"The very fabric of the game..."...Wow! These people are deep thinkers...or more like deep shit thinkers! They're the ones crying about losing that young player to rugby and wanting the NRL to step in and put up the cash just so they can keep him at Vermin FC. They are the face of victimhood in the NRL and no matter what, they still act like it. I can see a protest coming up soon chanting Vermin Lives matter!

From what I saw playing for the wolf pack. He looked good in defence. Was everywhere and backing up for other people misses.
He was definitely rusty in attack. But I honestly believe that wasn’t his fault. He tried offloads that no one was running on to. Passes that no one could catch. At the blues in rugby or roosters in the NRL their would of been a player to catch that offload or catch that pass. He definitely won’t be that 80 minute guy but he has the potential to turn a game on its head.

Mickie is that you? You look gooood in poiple

I’m Mickie but I think Mickie might have something to say about that.

[John Corey]

Forget about what you saw of him with Toronto. That's an average team.
Imagine him in a great side running wide on the right hand side. He will offload at will. Joey Manu will love it. As long as he is not played in the middle he will be great.

[rented tracksuit]

In regards to the 'fame' I mean that the players will be exited to have him in the squad. I doubt any of our player would be jumping for joy for having played with Cam Smith, where as SBW is the biggest name in the rugby's since Jonah Lomu!

As for King Salvo, I suggest you get some facts checked because some of the stuff you mentioned is incorrect. If he arrives to Australia, like movie stars that are arriving at the moment or even that English prop, they have to isolate for the required period and that's it. the other info like visa and Toronto stuff is also incorrect....anyway we'll see.

Gotta ya JFC!

WAS one of the biggest names in both codes but in NRL, not even close to a Thurston, Smith or Cronk. IMO, Cronk had a bigger influence on us, and still does, than SBW ever did. He might bring a wealth of value to the prep and training but I fear we might be forced to carry him on the field somewhat. After all, he had not been exactly setting the super league alight and that was in a substandard competition as well.

If we get him, I hope I’m very very wrong.

If he becomes a Rooster again, how many games do you see us getting out of him?

Was a Brett Morris setting the world on fire before coming over, or was Josh Morris going to be able to step into Latrell's shoes? As for Cronk being a big influence on the team, yes you are right but SBW was a big influence on us winning in 2013. The difference between the 2 is that Cronks position on the team affords him that extra bit of influence on the team over a backrower, but off-field Sonny also brought a lot of professionalism that we hadn't seen for a while.

The Morris boys have always been brilliant and tbh, I would take Brett Morris over just about any player in the NRL right now.

Cronks influence got us two premierships in the final two years of his career. SBW got us one in his prime and an average second season. I hope he can be as influential this time and help us to another. If he can help us to a three peat, I don’t care what else happens!

Source? Apart from what we have all read in the media.

Lol. your are officially this sites smallest wanka.. This deal was done weeks ago.. I love the giggles watching the wanka's on this site..

[kruT]

I would suggest the dinner was to clear the way for SBW to sign for someone else, probably the Warriors. Sonny had a handshake deal with Nick that if he came back to the NRL it would be with us. As these are unusual circumstances, and time has moved on beyond when either party probably contemplated his return might happen, his manager was probably making sure Nick would be OK with him playing elsewhere. I can’t see him playing for us.

lol!

If you are wrong, just go and buy your own Trakie pants, for Christ sake!

thing is robbo is so on the ball that this can't be a bad thing. even if sbw does his acl in the first minute of his first game he won't contribute less than asu would have contributed. but, glass half full, sbw could help us. robbo won't look on sbw as the difference between winning and losing. he'll ease him into the team. this team has achieved good things without sbw and doesn't 'need' him. could he be useful? abso-****ing-lutely.
