what could possibly go wrong?

Since when has seymour been better than leon pryce? in which world is that?

Well technically he has this season as Leon is yet to play a game

Don't be too hard on yourself.

I'd be astonished - and disappointed - if Peter Hood was prepared to deal with Mimmis

I'd be astonished - and disappointed - if a Chairman of a sporting club would be that stubborn given the lack of quality options.

Indeed.

I am sure that we would have our eyes open slightly wider this time.

We'd be seriously limiting our options for quite sometime if we refuse to deal with Mimmis ever again. I understand he is one of the bigger agents down under and has a fair few high profile clients.

As Stul already said, Im sure we'll tread a lot more carefully round him in future and be less trusting than we were in orfords case.

Bob grogan?

Well, its not really stubbornness

It's about not wanting to deal with someone who has been proven to be untrustworthy i.e he assured the club that Orford would return (as stated by Hood at the fans forum) when that was never going to happen.

But if Mimmis has control of most of the Aussie players then what choice do we have? Grrrr

Is there such a thing as a trustworthy agent?

Yeah, cos nobody in sport ever tells a wee porky in order to look after their own or their teams' best interests eh?

Are you really that naive?

I like to believe that there are still some morals in sport. But obviously I'm wrong to do so



Oh well

I'll try not say 'told you so' when we get screwed over by Mimmis again....

Hull seem to think they have signed Brett Seymour from under our noses

Meh.

they thought that with ainscough too.



time will tell I suppose.

Not one Hull fan claimed we signed Ainscough it was one of your fans.

The source of information from this one is a Hull fan who is very good friends with Berrigan who is now at the NZ Warriors, corrcetly stated well before it was announced that we had signed Heremaia.

Doesn't mean it's true but it does have some substance.

Shows the lack of quality from the NRl if we are fighting over Brett Seymour.

Saying that it's better than we currently have a 7.

dont worry about it. was an in forum joke

Just had a look at your squad and if you've signed him it would mean you would only be re-signing 2 of O'meley, Fitzgibbon, Moa, Lauaki. That's a hell of a hole in your pack to be filled by fed trained players isn't it?

missed out on seymour? cry me a river

fitzgibbon

Moa and O`Meley are close to agreeing new deals i believe, rumours are that Fitz will announce his retirement, Lauaki is expected to be allowed to leave at the end of the season when his contract expires.

Luaki the sort of aggressive and wild player we have been missing for years sod grandpa I need a rest after every play the ball (which agar thinks is a tactic and game) I want luaki!!

Bring back the biff!!!!!!

Think Seymour will be a great signing. He's only 26 and in his prime. Halfbacks are at a premium, there aren't many about. Signing a 26 y/o (who has been in excellent form from what i've seen) is a good coup for the Bulls. Better than Gale and Pryce anyway.

For me i'd sign a big money prop and leave it at that. We can't be ahving too many changes after the turnovers we've had over the last couple of years.
