Hmmm ... I wish I had as much courage as the keyboard warrior who specialises in being rude about the wives / gilrfriends of other posters - from the anonymity of the internet.

Still, I don't wish to give the impression that I'm interested in having a conversation with you. I'm just letting you know that I'm still around and will pop back on here from time to time, whenever your famous attitude starts to get out of hand.
I am truly honoured Cruncher. Do whatever you wish. However, whenever you spout lies and nonsense I will rightly correct you. I treat all stupid people the same be they male, be they female. I do not believe in sexism just honesty. It is even funnier when you do not know what you are talking about. Perhaps you should do so before you spout rubbish.

The fact you have returned 3 times since being exposed as a coward is amusing. Nobody agreed with you on RLfans did they :wink:

Aside from the childish banter in earlier posts, which was part of the reasons why I decided to take a sabbatical away from the site to "refresh myself".

I would love to see Hunt in the Wigan side, however, I am not sure he would be the best option. It is only because he (his agent) is currently touting his services around at the moment, that Wigan are seen as a possible destination. He isn't the best full back in the Aussie game! Just much better than what we have already. If we have (or are) preparing a bid for him, surely the money would be better offered to tempt a Billy Slater?

I think Billy is tied to a lengthy contract though BM. KHunt is the best available fullback.

Article from: The Australian
A DAY after being crowned the world's best player, Kangaroos fullback Billy Slater has become a target for rugby union clubs in Australia.

Queensland high-performance manager Ben Whitaker confirmed the Reds were keen to speak to Slater if the Storm custodian had a genuine interest in switching codes.

Slater has a Mark Gasnier-type clause in his contract which allows him to leave Melbourne at the end of next season should he receive a lucrative offer from English Super League or rugby.

Given his form for club and country over the past year, union officials have had their ears pricked by the existence of the clause.





An old article, but one that does hint of a possible "get out clause" at the end of this season. Anyone still interested??

Who wouldn't want Slater BM but I think KHunt is more realistic as Billy hold the Green & Gold, Maroon full back jersey and is not IMO going to give those up unless Union offered him a ridiculous contract which we cannot match.

A fullback to watch out for is the young Canberra FB, Josh Duggan. Very promising.

awww where'd the bitching go?

I know you're a mod cp but:
3. Do not insult other users. People may disagree with you, or you may disagree with what other people have said, but that does not make them idiots, fools, morons, cretins or whatever.

is a decent thread bar the gassing.


I'd love K.Hunt to wear our jersey but the same problems persist even back to previous Fans Forums. we need beef up front and now especially that Hock isnt with us for upto 2 years (or 1 year looking at that RU players ban of 8 months) i'd like our money to cover the forward positions. Yes we have Hansen, Mossop, Joel but in Ian and Brians mind are they worth the #11 and #12 shirts?

Look at Webb at Leeds, IMO arguably Leeds would have been the same without him success-wise, they did it when he was injured. I have the feeling we'd be the same with or without Hunt. Would someone rather have a galactico in their team or a team?
