So what is this blokes future? Another 3 years?
Big and strong , but just a journeyman?
Be a journo and make up a story!
Why? We are short of outside backs ( Like the tahs!) , so is he the future and is there anything in WA to look forward to?
Sorry Mr Sidey, great effort with the Force Snap-Back Cap's, but I think you'd be better suited to League![]()
Unnamed Sauces have suggested that Rory was part of RG grand plan and was re-signed by him as part of it, he may not get much playing time this year depending on who else we sign.
80 Minutes, 15 Positions, No Protection, Wanna Ruck?
Ruck Me, Maul Me, Make Me Scrum!
Education is Important, but Rugby is Importanter!
Well no matter what he is here for another year. Maybe with a REAL coach he might do something. Dead set by the time RG is finished with the reds Will Genia will be the starting hooker and Cooper will be the Defence coach.
“Everyone knows whether it’s rugby, politics or whatever, front-rowers should rule the world, so to have a hooker at the helm makes sense,” Nathan Charles Western Force & Wallabies Hooker.
all signings made by RG this year should be made null & void
after all,he made them with the REDS interests at heart
this is exactly the problem when the coach, who has been revealed as completely in charge of signings, starts negotiating with the competition pre-season, and then signs a contract mid season.
Why the frak would anybody think it was a good idea he was NOT sacked on the spot, and frog marched out of HQ with security guards either side.
And that's why Vern Reid should also be sacked, his complete mismanagement of this fiasco.
Rant over

The long sobs of autumn's violins wound my heart with a monotonous languor
Tried to talk to him at the Awards night but he was clearly totally disinterested in talking to me so I left him to it. Quite rude.
Dear Sittingbison,
Could you please specify what Vern Reid did, or did not do which leads you to conclude he completely mismanaged this situation. Facts preferred please.
Thanks in anticipation.

I am sure these names has crossed his table and fell into file 13
I thought someone said Rory re-signed at earlier on in the season?
I reckon Rory Sidey is alright but I don't know about his fit for the squad. I mean we have 4 or so possible outside centres in Tupou, Dellit, Cummins and Stanley. We also have a few options at 12 with Stanley, Rasolea and maybe one of the playmakers we have. Sidey is good as a strong defensive 12 who is good at the breakdown but he just doesn't offer us much else.
Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast.
Give me a break. If Stanley was a firework he'd be a fizzer.
Go Neddies.

Get him out of the 35 & into Sales where he wants to be.
There's local centre's that can do what he does (One Dimensional Runner/Tackler) ..... All I can say, "Local Pathways" Reid!!
