He'll be at Wigan next week then! :D






You've stolen my washing
From out my back garden
You've tarmacked my driveway
Even though I said no
You've nicked my lead flashing
And weighed it in at the scrappy
Oh St Helen's tatters
Come rob me again

Da Finchy Code puts through a nothing grubber close to the line that rolls dead, , Fitzgibbon yells at him to "push it". Finch says he "couldn't get the c*nt through". Fitzgibbon also gets defensive and they fall into a "no, you" slanging match, all caught on microphone.

One of the funniest scenes i've seen on a footy field.

That's not what Dally thinks - he thinks he is SOO quality player - but what does know!!!

Finch only get a run out in the NRL because the depth of half back talent is so thin - why would a 35 year old man be trotting out in Auckland if there were younger alternatives!!!






Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.

Really - why when Bellamy was the coach for NSW didn't Finch get a spot? He thought so much of Finch he started with Bird - a very averge 13 - in game 1 and game 2 - actions speak louder than words.

Why are the rest of these guys commentators because they know they can't coach - their opinions need to be treated with that in mind - the fact you swallow it shows you are an even bigger fool than I thought.

Lyon last year at Manly and this year, Matt Rogers at the Titans and Greg Inglis with Storm. Cant coaches get it into their head that quality centres dont necessarily make quality 6's?


Fair enough. But to be fair.

Brad Fittler
Laurie Daley
Greg Florimo

all reached a high status with their clubs moving to five-eighth from centres. They are more. These just popped into my head.

In oz they've always had the opinion of players being more adaptable. Halves to hooker and vice versa. Centre to five-eighth and vice versa. Five-eighths to lock. Maybe that's where we go wrong in the UK. I hear people back there mention things like this every now and then. Yet here, with coaches, it's the norm.

gould on the finch departure

and on friday night nathan hindmarsh was benched for a while

why you would bench a player of his ability beats me.

it wouldnt surprise me if they punt hindy.

anderson did the same with stacey jones at the warriors.

havles to hookers , yep we do that,
5/8th to lock , yep we do that too

centres to 6...other that gleeson who's done abit at 6, i reckon leon pryce would be a very,very good Centre...but normally we tend to swap our centres & 2nd rowers about..


if you look at andy farrell when i first broke into the wigan side he played anywhere they had a space for him,Centre,wing,fullback,stand off..then he moved to tha pack playing 13,2nd row before finishing as a prop

Incorrect.

Stacey didn't enjoy Anderson and left. As did many other of the good 2002 Warriors sqaud. He was not punted. Even to the point of refusing (sorry retiring) to play for NZ for a while he Ando was there.

read his book. (jones)

remember when he was benched during that dogs game.

wonder why jones stopped playing for NZ when anderson was coach, and came back after he left.

jones talks a lot about his acrimonius relationship with anderson quite a bit and more or less says andersons personality forced out a lot of good players from the warriors
