Your team for 2019

Reports James Robberts is un happy at Brisbane.
Also Damien Cook is now allowed to be approached by rival clubs for 2020, apparently wants $800k.
I think we should be having a look at both.

Cook would be great.

I feel as though Cook could be a 1/2 season wonder. Not sure I’d throw that amount of money at him.
What makes you think that about him Because last season he made every other hooker look slow and ordinary except maybe Smith .
 
We've got 1mil in hookers ATM, think its the last spot we need to spend anymore funds on.

In saying that, I'd happy shop Levi around if cook could come here

For one he is a late bloomer. So yet to be tested on whether he can back it up once sides work him out.

Also after origin this year he was no where to be seen. Once the Burgess boys especially lost the impact they had on games in the last 3rd of the season Cook was invisible.

800k for him is a very big risk in my opinion.

Wow... Which games are these your talking about?

Rd21 cook was best on ground vs the storm
The 3 burgess combined for over 500m

Rd22 cook was still awesome in a loss to the roosters where he made most tackles and all 3 Burgess combined for just under 500m

Rd23 cook topped the tackle count
Burgess boy ran for 300m

Rd 24 cook top the tackle count
Burgess boys made 350m combined

Rd25 cook topped the tackle count
Burgess boys ran for over 450m combined

So what dribble are you talking about mate?
 
That’s why Rabbits only won 2 or 3 of their last 10 or so games for the year?

Again you read into stats to much young padawan. Burgess boys could of been making metres but they sure as hell weren’t dominating the ruck with their quick play the balls allowing for the likes of Cook and Walker to play on the front foot.

Topped tackle count? Wow I guess that backs my point up. Teams targeted him more and nullified what he is best at. He was not the threat he was at the start and middle of the season.

Last 10 games of the season includes finals they played as well (which works out to be 4/10). In any case, I agree Cook is a weapon and a massive part of their attack. I think we’ve got hooker fairly covered though. We need props. Klem and AFB and we’d be set. If no new centres become available, we’ve got some great juniors coming through that I wouldn’t mind seeing have a go.

You’re missing their final 3 games to the season. Hmm I wonder why that might be.

Might be time for that holiday you keep going on about.

Good chat.

The NRL season is 25rds then they have a finals series.

Your original points are garbage which you're trying to move the goal posts to suit your agenda.

What players would you buy for the knights?
Cause in my eyes everyone is over priced or over hyped or shouldn't be able to talk to that we've had mentioned on here the past few months.

Far from moving the goal posts I originally stated they won something like 2/3 of their last 10 games for the year. You moved the goal posts in attempt to show they in fact won 6 when they didn’t. Only a fool wouldn’t include their finals games as part of the last 10 games for the year.

All I’ve said is Cook at 800k would be a big risk in my opinion. He will be going on 29 at the start of that contract having only been a decent FG player for 2 years max. Absolute silly money for someone not proved himself year after year in my opinion.
 
Ideally, if we get Klem, then the Dogs get Napa. We may still get AFB then, although if he won’t be released, I’d happily take Musgrove. Imagine those two with Ese, Saif x 2, and Glasby, and Saulo nipping at their heels. Good lord, getting a semi just thinking about it.
