Official Ryan Verlinden

The Beast > Donnelly

watched the replay of sharks vs CC storm (foxsports NSW cup game of the week), this guy is a beast, if you think gallen needs 4 players to try and get him down, you havent seen the beast..unbelievable, he can have players hanging off him and still make good metres

if sticky has been watching, he should be in first grade soon

(TC also had a good game)

 

[stormshark]

Y from memory i think i remember watching him:rant at the storm, he'll do the job!

 

[sharks86]

Yep saw the game on Fox too, he ripped it up all game and is worthy of a FG start I reckon.
A few of those NSW Cup guys are playing real well - they dominated the Storm all game.

mind you it was there first win of the year..

 

[brad]

how is his fitness?

 

[pandapat]

He seems like he gets tired too easily, more fitness work and he'd rip it up

 

[bort]

when we were talking about him preseason it was mention he kills it in the gym, even putting gallen (last years 3rd strongest in the nrl) to shame

can just see him in first grade..gallen takes a hit up, carries 4, then the beast carries 4, defense is shot

 

[Sir Chadley]

Hey Peach, do you know if this guy has played in NSW cup for the whole year? I haven't heard about his form in any of the previous games.

Can you watch NSW Cup games on line anywhere or is it only on Foxtel?

Ahh some good news, I’m sure our luck will turn around soon.

I watched Verlinden in the Queanbeyan trials Jan this year, he looks every bit the intimidating front row figure, however my spies tell me, when at Souths (North Sydney Premier League) he was lazy as.

I’d say it’s now or never for him, hope he’s up for it because he’s got some competition in dislodging Dougy and Snowdon.

 

[gando2230]

That is why they should play them before the first grade. Watching the under 20,s a bit boring.

 

[Henchmann]

Nah have to disagree Gando, Im very happy with the current system (under 20's then 1st grade) and the fact they televise the kids running around.

 

[JimBob]

hey we have only won one game....

Is this Verlinden guy the bloke from Iceland who got injured a while back? He was a big unit from memory.

No mate that was Brynjar Ragnarsson, Verlinden sounds more Dutch or Belgian than Scandinavian!

Yeah, that's him...what happened to him? Is he gone? And just where did this Verlinden bloke come from? I'm so confused

Ragnarsson suffered a stroke this time last year and wasn't allowed to play contact sport for at least 12 months. Ryan Verlinden is from North Sydney Bears, here's a pic of him playing for the Bears against our blokes:

 

[IronShark]

Right...but he is signed to the Sharks, yeah? Ahh! it's all too confusing. I give up. Why don't we just get that Karl Lovell bloke back? We need some more blokes named "Karl"...I've lost it:dazed:

Yes, we signed him from the Bears last year and he is in our NSW Cup squad, and is reputabably a good prospect (unlike the aforementioned Karl Lovell I might add!)

Can you watch NSW Cup games on line anywhere or is it only on Foxtel?

Yes, you can see selected games here.

Ok, fine. I think I've got it now. Just one more question...can we change his name to "Karl"? What about a whole team of "Karl's"? Or even better, half "Karl" and half "Lenny"...that team would be unstoppable.

Alright, that's enough with the "Karl " thing, I promise.
