Bring back.. : Sun Mar 08, 2009 8:48 am  

ROBBIE

Get a cheeky bid in for Robbie, won't cost much, offers better leadership and more creativity than what we have currently in the halfbacks, and despite his age would be a better option than jeffries,

Would play with more passion than some of the players we currently have and could cover the halves and hooker

You've got to be joking

And that is a your problem. A team with the key positions filled by either mediocre players, or players who are past it, and injury prone.

I said a while ago I wouldn't mind seeing Robbie back at the right price. He isn't going to work miracles but he could do a job and we know we're going to get 100% effort out of him, plus it would be a boost for the club in terms of having a well-known face and media personality on board.

Robbie back at the club working in the community/media.. yes please. As a player.. I think he is probably past his best. We need a quality half back.. not another back up!

IMHO hard not to agree with all of that.

Robie hasn't been right or played 100% since he inured his arm

Why go after Robbie when Myler is already a far better player and a lot younger ?

We had Harris and Deacon for the last four years, Jeffries was a stop gap. We knew we needed replacements. Why don't we have a crop of aspiring half backs in U21's and Academy just chomping at the bit for a chance? Everybody except the coaching staff has seen this coming for the last 4 years. Same goes for the Hooking situation. All we seem capable of bringing through is Forwards. Yet again we are part way through the season and having to scrape the bottom of the barrel to fill in where we all knew we were going to be short.

Ask the people in charge when those lads would have had to be signed.
