Please, we need to improve the side not make it worse :shock:
Is Witty playing well enough in Prem's to be thrown back into First Grade? I've heard good reports on Muspratt, Thorman, Moi Moi & Kaufusi but apparently Witty is still hot & cold after his offseason shoulder surgery.
I agree, we need to make changes, but making changes for the sake of it will only be like shooting ourselves in the foot. We can't just pick Witt on how he played last season, we have to pick him based on his current form, which from all reports ain't that crash hot.
O'Dwyer was killing it in Premier League, so we all wanted him in First Grade after the Bulldogs debacle. Now he's in First Grade and people are calling for his head? #-o
O'Dwyer needs some time to develop. That should be done in my opinion at the moment in Premier League. You have to remember that he hasnt come through the same regime as most other NRL footballs, he has effectively only been involved in elite level football for a month. Most players who have make first grade have been within the NRL Clubs from the SG Ball or at least Flegg and spent 3-4 years before finally getting to first grade. Let him learn in his right environment.
I have only seen Thorman play the once and that was today. He is sensational in my opinion. Exactly the player we need in First Grade. He has got NRL First Grade written all over him. Must be in the First Grade team.
Witt has his moments, but not the same player he was last year.
Fui Fui I think could be handy off an interchange bench, but he seems to tire pretty quickly. He is probably only good for 2 x 15 mins spells at the most.
Kaufusi impressed me, I think he would be a better option on the bench for First Grade than Fui Fui.
Muspratt is a very good player, good skills, excellent defence. A much better player than Wagon and O'Dwyer. Should get a run in first grade soon.
It was clear to me that Thorman and Muspratt are too good for Premier League.
I am keen to see Chris Muckert when he returns from injury. Hopefully Graham will come back a better player as well.
