:lol: you have no idea what youre talking about, as usual. KS loves to try and change a basket case into a star. It would again prove to everyone what a great coach he is. I suppose he didnt realise what utter failures most RL players are as athletes.

so you agree that some would know another player then? so 100% was a farce just like most of your comments?

given the have 8 rising star nominees, some aging stars in Power, Cornes and Brogan, plus ready made champs in Scully and Ward id suggest your wrong as usual.

well thats it for them & their parents who took them to midgets games .... no more giggleball for true westies

its a blue n gold jumper mum with Izzy's name on the back for chrissie .. the eels would be whackin em out now :cool:
they & the NRL will seriously ramm this down the VFL's neck :cool:

No, it's actually ideal for the AFL. Izzy's switch caused the media circus it was supposed to which repeatedly promoted the game to a new market. He was a dud which shows what we all know that there is little to no skill in RL. Then when the giants needed to step up their performance in their second year he cut and run meaning he doesn't get the full contract amount and the giants are in a perfect position to use their extra cash to recruit a real big talent in ex Adelaide player Tippett.

Perfect.

wow

marcus

the best turd polisher in the bizz

it doesn't matter what a delusional tosser like you thinks
its the young lads throughout the nthn states that matter .. & they'll have a different take

Izzy attracted a lot of attention for sure when he went ova
meaning everyone including all those young lads watched what he did yesterday too.... virtually telling the football world in Australia

even for half the money
NRL is still a better game to play

a disaster
an utter ... disaster for the Victorian game in NSW .... :cool:

X, you ever heard of bad publicity? That's what this is. Parramatta will get a truckload of press if Izzy goes there, and that will be a positive for league. The AFL wasted their time and money with him.

wow, Dave, since when did you speak for kids in NSW? :lol:

Izzy was always destined to fail and go back to RL. He played his part in promoting the new team by switching.

Plenty more kids took notice of the Giants because they saw them mentioned in the news or saw them in the papers. Those that decided to have a go themselves either liked the sport and will continue or didnt like the sport and wont. I hardly think theyll make up their minds to quit because Izzy did. If thats the case are you conceeding kids quit RL to follow RU when a player does the same? :roll:

Izzy was always destined to fail and go back to RL
:lol: :lol: :lol: ... oh good lord , he's taken a dump on yr game from a great height .... not for double the money would I continue to play this sh.it before League .. so says Izzy :wink:
