Lord Tony Smith:

Nothing surprises me at this club anymore. We are a circus. Having heard what Musgrove had done it's no wonder he has been sacked. This is a bloke who had numerous convictions for assault before we signed him, yet we still proceeded to sign him, do we ever learn?


I can't believe there has been no club statement yet to ease fans fears over the incident. I was told about this incident on Monday yet here we are five days later and absolute silence from the club.


I thought I'd list some of the dud signings we've made over the last few years:-


Greg Inglis, Alfie Johnson, Peter Mata'utia, Ben Pomeroy, Anthony Gelling, Chris Sandow, Tyrone Roberts, Zane Musgrove, Brad Dwyer, Leilani Latu, Kyle Amor, Dan Russell, Luther Burrell, Billy Magoulias, Josh McGuire, Roy Asotasi, Lama Tasi, Welsey Bruines, Oliver Holmes, Greg Minikin, Gil Dudson, Mitch Brown, Bodene Thompson, Samy Kibula, Keanan Brand, Gary Wheeler, Ryan Bailey, Matty Blythe, Matty Smith, Mitchell Dodds, Dom Crosby, Rob Butler, Sam Kasiano. 


There's probably more I've missed.

RE managing the PR, the club are always behind the ball. I understand a disciplinary process may be underway but a place holder statement could have been released before we have to read about it in the RL press, Facebook and on here.

The Speculator:



Good point. It put Burgess in a very awkward and uncomfortable position in his press conference, having to answer a question about Musgrove's absence, when some sort of official statement could have been put out earlier, saying something along the lines of there being an ongoing internal investigation so we can't say any more at this stage. Not difficult really, but we manage to screw it up.
