James Roberts for Super League? : Fri Dec 12, 2014 5:00 pm  
James Roberts, the centre three quarter for Gold Coast Titans, has been reprimanded and fined by his club for an incident at a Gold Coast night club. He has been warned that his position at the club is on the line, since he has already been sacked by two other clubs for alcohol fueled incidents. Given his record, he is unlikely to be picked up by another NRL club.

Roberts is the fastest man in the NRL, and his blinding speed would make him unstoppable in Super League. Catalans has no slot available for him. Which club could and would take him?

Re: James Roberts for Super League? : Fri Dec 12, 2014 5:22 pm  
It seems you spend most of your time trawling the Aussie press releases for NRL players who have tainted their reputation and start a new thread with the headline 'player X for SL'

Maybe it is time to merge a thread for your daily updates of misgivings from down under?

Sound like a good idea.

I am looking not just for any misbehaving players, but instead for players who can add an x-factor to Super League. Todd Carney and Albert Kelly will do that. In fact I predict that if they remain fit they will be regarded as the best halves, and the most exciting ones, in Super League.

James Roberts is a centre, and he also has that x-factor. I believe that if he is cast adrift from the NRL (which is increasingly likely because he is living in a party-time holiday resort area, while his financially strapped club is desperate for good publicity), but without a criminal conviction, a lifeline from a Super League club could rehabilitate him, even if if only for his time in England, and give his new club and SL as a spectacle, a magnificent boost on the playing field.

McDermott is going. I actually think he is more relaxed because of it, and seems to have let the shackles go. He apparently asked to finish the season, and that is what they agreed.

Sounds good, maybe Catalan could get special dispensation for him, true to their normal form they could play him at full back instead of a young French player like Escare

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Thanks for that Buggo. Starbug is from Leigh, which is a little suburb of Wigan that doesn't even have a train station. Apparently he does not have a subscription to Premier Sports either, because if he did he would never have asked that question.
