Lol whats with the peter wallace pic?

bradleythegreat · 10-06-2008, 11:39 AM

For value of money I would have to go wallace,Head and Henderson.

wesserilovethee · 10-06-2008, 05:48 PM

Henderson and Wallace for mine.

Tighe has been pretty good for Penrith, he and Petero have been real handy.

Wes Nquiama has been good for Newcastle as well, played very well from the back when Gidley's been out.

Josh Perry.... Hes going great..

Broncos_R sick07 · 10-06-2008, 06:28 PM

Joel Clinton.....
Wendell Sailor
Travis Burns

Old Mate · 10-06-2008, 06:39 PM

Sims has been going much better than Clinton and... ohh it was a take.

Broncos nut · 10-06-2008, 06:54 PM

Peter Wallace?

He has been terrible this year.

Clinton was the only player putting in the hard yards against St George.
He made something like 18 hit ups, 150 meters and 25+ tackles.
David Taylor had a disgraceful performance.

Probly Wallace.

Matt Head was the best buy for his price IMO.

Mason has been gun at the Roosters.

Wallace has kept Brisbane going with no Lockyer.

lol @ the pic of Civo.

Broncos_R sick07 · 10-06-2008, 08:33 PM

Civos a hench

Broncos Fan! · 10-06-2008, 08:36 PM

I still don't get the pic of the old guy???

manly313 · 10-06-2008, 09:42 PM

i said so many times.. that all travis burns has is tough aggressive defense..

he cant even do that anymore, seems as if every game he goes on report

Broncos Fan! · 10-06-2008, 09:46 PM

He has been suspended so many times for being too tough and agressive in defence

slickerthansleek · 10-06-2008, 10:14 PM

Wallace and Head.

Yeah his defence is all he really has going for him. Though he is very poorly disciplined.

And to think Alec was talking him up to be SOO five-eighth when Lockyer retires.

Knights06=Premiers · 10-06-2008, 11:12 PM

wallace and hernderson apart from the obvious big names (civonaciva,mason etc)

I typed Peter Wallace into www.google.com.au and that old man came up, so I thought he must have been Peter Wallace.

Lockyer hasn't retired yet. Burns has been average this year, but has shown enough promise in the past. I still think he'll be great later.

But then again, it's probably hard for you to understand what I'm talking about, since you only rate players based on how they played the last round.

I can't see where you are coming from in saying that, even in a few seasons, Travis Burns will be the frontrunner for SOO 5/8. I'd rather see 7.Prince 6.Thurston, 7.Cronk 6.Thurston, even Inglis at 5/8 or 7. Cronk 6. Prince than Travis Burnsat 5/8. Also, rating players based on their last round is better than talking up players who have shown almost no promise at all, after winning rookie of the year at Manly. Then again, you have your opinion, and I have mine.
