What's that in real money? About £280,000?

yup, current exchange rate is about 0.61 to the pound.

Liker I said its my own opinion of him....Came over here with a big reputation, abit like Berro and has done nothing... Half the people on here probably didn't know who he was till ge came over, he played in a very good Manly side, but never really stood out in a team with the likes of the Stewarts, Monaghon, Orford.... He played in a great team that's all

Must have done something right, those NSW and Australia caps would say so.

I'm not saying he's garbage, I just said he's over rated IMO... Every player who plays 3ep and Origin level don't all qualify to be God like figures in the Rugby League world

he is manly,s and the nrl,s highest ever try scoring forward but he never stood out.

Woke up this morning, gutted at the fact we had missed out on the signing of Rangi Chase - took 5 minutes to realise that him signing for Man City was probably a dream!

Superb player.
Standout over here even though he's well past his best.

Like I said he played in a great team... Think Matt Sing has some kind of record too, great player, came over here, did nothing and got ripped to shreads. Every one has an opinion, that's what makes us all unique creatures.

That's what I call putting your money where your mouth is. Did you get a response?

He scored most of his try's for manly when they were $hite. He was a one club player and stayed loyal with manly even when they were the laughing stock of the nrl.

You know nothing and I advise you quit while your behind.

Really?

JTP missed his vocation in life, he should have been a bookie!
I think you'll find the teams he mentioned will be a lot shorter odds to finish above us this season.

He's hardly being generous!

Can't exactly say Matt Sing did nothing at Hull managed 32 tries in 39 games.
Not exactly a poor strike rate in anyones book.

No? But, either way, he makes a good point. If we beat those teams more times than we lose to them it will show real improvement on last year, whereas picking up an additional 2 points against Wakefield might not be such an impressive feat. I'm pretty sure that was his point.

Did he? You sure that's not blacklocks record?

According to the SL stats site, it was 13 in 38.

Quite sure.
That's the info I pulled off the web anyway.

It sounds to be Jake is forecasting we'll be finishing in the top two or three, so why the continual pessimism then?

Perhaps he should let us all know what his end of season prediction is?

So a 19 try performance in a cup game?

Blacklock 30 in 45 league apps.

Not a stat to grumble at too much!

Would be right up there with the best of them anyway and thats without taking into account his injuries and he had virtually just come back from playing union when he come over here.

Not bad indeed

Best 33 in 56 league apps (2003 & 04).
