Quote ="Gordon Gekko"I'd go Thorman FB, Horne SO and Berro ">SH.'"
If Washbrook is not far from playing again i would put him at SO; Horne to FB and Berro SH
Shame for Motu but it confirms what we all thought; that he will be leaving at the end of the season
He was never going to be good enough in some fans eyes after letting Briscoe go and he got some unfair flack

Quote ="Action Man"Or not signed Berrigan and continued with Motu at hooker. Glad as I've been to see Berrigan play here, we didn't need a hooker particularly at that point.
Oh, and Briscoe was offered a contract to stay and chose to reject ">it.'"
Are you insane? Nobody we already had on the books was good/ready enough to step into Swain's shoes at that point. We coped ok-ish, but were notably weaker in his injury absence. We needed a hooker and got the best one on the market. IMO there can be absolutely no complaints about the recruitment of Berrigan. How we've utilised him and the platform he's been given to perform since are a different matter.

Quote ="Mrs Barista"Absolutely gutted for him. Whatever his shortcomings under the high ball IMO he's come back when not fully fit and given it a really good go.
What is it about our backs? Games missed due to injury (out of 18 possible):
Byrne 16
Tony 13
Raynor 13
Briscoe 10
Whiting 8'"
It's harder work for them carrying the pack.  icon_wink.gif" alt="icon_wink.gif" title="Wink" />

| Shame if tony was to finish his career like this, he was a very good player for us in 2005/06 and will always be rembered for his try in the CC final.
Hopfully he can recover from this latest set back and get a contract with another team for next season.

Quote ="Jake the Peg"Sounds pretty horrible. Hope he makes a good recovery.
Great player but we need to move on. I will remember him for 3 pieces of magic
1) Try at Cardiff (Obviously)
2) Try against Bradford in the GF eliminator 2006
3) Stanley Gene getting knocked out when trying to tackle him in the 1st SL derby at caravan park.
He also suffered a horrific facial injury when playing for NZ didn't he? Probably the smallest player in the squad but hard as they come.
I'm sure he'll pick up a contract somewhere. Good luck Motu and I hope the club give the fans a chance to say goodbye'"
