Love the response regarding the whole Pampley/Carlisle thing. Well done, Ratten.


This was my father's belief
And this is also mine:
Let the corn be all one sheaf--
And the grapes be all one vine,
Ere our children's teeth are set on edge
By bitter bread and wine.

Little acts over time that build credibility.

Eg. Recall how he played Sam Rowe in round 22 last year?

I'm more than surprised, I think Ratts should be sacked for lack of integrity in a presser, he mentioned Parkers name in a very positive way which is coach code for "my love child."

How will the players know where they stand if Ratts is giving mixed messages in his pressers.

Now, I'd be surprised if he is delisted. On exposed form, there is enough, on a budget contract, to keep him.

Clubs will have to retrench about 10 players to get lists down to 35 so it will be a shame if a player like Parker is a casualty. It's always hard guage coahes positve comments about a player like Parker but he is saying he likes him as one of the players that brings speed to the side so make of that what you will. As I say, it will be a shame to lose him due to cost cutting measures only as he us probably one of those players that needs a more time at the feeder level but we won't go there.
