Is Stanley now the new messiah?
Considering Tommy has packed his bags for greener pastures, and from Watters comments that he feels Stanley could be a cog in the forward line, is Stanley now the new messiah for the forward line?

Cahill and Will J are long shots to put it mildly.

It is hopeful thinking that this will happen after bombing out at the Swans.Sainternist wrote:The "greener pastures" are in Ireland.sainterinsydney wrote:Considering Tommy has packed his bags for greener pastures

Sarcasm. Fev is officially a waste of time at our club. Picks when to chase, poor attitude and I reckon he is close to past it anyway.Sainternist wrote:plugger, is this just plain old sarcasm? or are you actually on the fev bandwagon now?plugger66 wrote:Yes his forward pressure would be amazing.hungry for a premiership wrote:So, realistically, what is our best forward line next year?

It would. He would put the forward line under a lot of pressure. The whole club in fact.plugger66 wrote:Yes his forward pressure would be amazing.hungry for a premiership wrote:So, realistically, what is our best forward line next year?

He actually does provide good forward pressure...we've had this discussion before, and I'm pretty sure we decided you were mistaken.plugger66 wrote:Sarcasm.

he is the man now. like many of our young players he was disillusioned and unmotivated by the ross lyon 4 year apprenticeship scheme. As would anyone be.
What if you chose a career and the boss said - ok son you are going to be a apprentice/clerk for 4 years.
Especially for gen Y's. Lyon simply could not connect with this group.

If you mean Kosi then maybe but cant remember it. If you mean Rooy i doubt it but he isnt the greatest tackler in the game. And least he doesnt pick and choose when to chase.Cro wrote:Do you say the same about our current FF?plugger66 wrote:Yes his forward pressure would be amazing.hungry for a premiership wrote:So, realistically, what is our best forward line next year?

You've noted his glowing performances over the last 2 seasons, and previous pre-season. Why would I be kidding?Ross who? wrote:Surely you are taking the pee.

Let's all start talking Stanley up again at least we will get a good pick for him next season. But seriously, Stanley has all the tools at his disposal and could be anything if he wants it bad enough.
