I'd take Wayde Dunley over Seymour. Morris will come good.

If Morris ever gets a chance to play hooker again, he will come good. His just not really good enough to play halfback or 5/8.

he's an ok 5/8 with a good halfback inside him, theres no way he is a play maker though...

Johns has officially retired. I'll probably post a big fat tribute post in here later unless Clapo does first.

BARNES OUT
Such a **** way for a great to go out. Would have been so much more appropriate for him to go out in either the finals or the last round, being carried off the ground by his teammates.

Are you ever positive about anything related to the NRL Simon? You just seem like such a cynicist.

Yeah, he said that Seymour was better than Premier League standard once. That was positive, I suppose, even though it was completely wrong IMO.

What a player. Along with Lewis, best I've seen and from those who have seen past greats, compares well with all of the immortals of yesteryear. Another bloody legend I've missed taking my young bloke to see play. 1st Warne retires before I had the chance to take him to the cricket, now Joey with Rugby League.
Even with this injury, he'd still be good enough to play international rugby union though.

What is it you hate about them? That they poached Ryan Hoffman or Danny Williams king-hit (even I never wanted him to play a game again, only that Super League clubs are so desperate for anybody from Australia and New Zealand) or something else?

Sad to see him go out with an injury - he has had a lot of them over the years though so i cant say im too surprised.
Worst Day, ruined it.

The fact that there are several better areas to have a rugby league club and the fact that several of their players are really over-rated. Strange time for you to dig that though!

Well I guess you can say that about a lot of clubs tbh. You've seen how much Phil Gould jacked off about Tim Smith when he came into first grade and a whole lot of other players.

Re the Johns retirement, it is said to see him go like that, I certainly remember him craving up Queensland in the last two Origin games in 2005 (tbf some of the Queensland selections were written on a piece of paper and some darts through at it) and thought 'wow'. That said it wasn't a surprise that he quit, it was almost expected.

Another question I have, surely any team that pays Joel Clinton 350k will be played for chums? I would say he is worth at least 100k less then that.
