    He is alot like Tate TBH. Good pickup to replace Tonga IMO.

    rofl.... Georgalis bleeds black and white. Magpie through and through. Long before his penruff days

    You're probably still fitter than me, I struggle to breathe after a minute of oztag. Good on ya though, after I broke my arm I never got my confidence back while on the field always stayed at the back of my mind. Make the most of it and then lend us some cash :p
     
  5. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Agreed. Probably half the price too.
     
  6. SM MD Dorn

    Will be intetesting to see if Linnett goes, what him and Tate go like in the centres together. I'm a bit skeptical of it tbh
     
  7. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Would've been signed purely on the back on playing a lot of first grade and not at all based on how he went in it. A shit cunt.
     
  8. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Centres aren't really "together" though. That Tate is on one side will have basically no impact on what Linnett does on the other - his combination with the second rower on his side, the winger on his side, the fullback and the halves will be of far more importance.
     
  9. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    I think it was an extemporaneous comment about the two of them as the first choice centres at the club, rather than "together" in the sense that one might employ when speaking about a halves combination.

    Then again, it was SM.
     
  10. Cribbage RG Cribb

    I think he was suggesting that Linnett would somehow perform better if the other centre wasn't Tate and that they'd be a bad combination of players.
     
  11. SM MD Dorn

    More that both centres will be quite "dull" so to speak, and alot of the work will have to be done by the likes of Tariq and Cooper etc.

    WTF happened to Bolton?
     
  12. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Tate is hardly dull. He's not flashy but he does plenty of work, particularly in defence.

    QCup. Paterson has been gun off the bench. Cooper, Johnson and Sims have been quite good this year, though I do think Sims has dropped off since his suspension.
     
  13. SM MD Dorn

    Bolton was a fucking gun last season, scored about a million tries down the flank, had a gun combo with JT.

    Was more talking about going forward (in attack). Tate's adequate, as is Linnett, but both aren't exactly offensive workhorses
     
  14. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    They both work harder than what Tonga has this year.
     
  15. SM MD Dorn

    Cause they're white :ninja:
     
  16. Julian BJ Taylor

    While all that is shit news the last bit is pretty gun mate!
     
  17. Julian BJ Taylor

    I reckon Linnett is a very good player, good signing.

    Should release Bolton straight into Canberra's starting second row.
     
  18. Cribbage RG Cribb

    Yeah AWTA.
     
  19. Sultan Pepper HG Emm

    Better off signing with the dogs tbh, outside chance I'll be president so there's big dollars there.
     
  20. Julian BJ Taylor

    Just on Purtell for the ESL follower: He's like David Howell but worse in defence and less skillfull.
