To date I think Hook has refrained from throwing in Sullivan/Amone and Sloan together because:
1. Our forwards have been dominated in virtually every game this year, barring the Parra and Newcastle game
2. The juniors are still transitioning to playing against men.
3. They would be better protected when Molo, Sua and Burgess arrive as we will not be constantly attempting to run the ball back from our 10 metre line.
4. They would benefit immensely from a full pre-season of training to build their bodies up to NRL level.
They undoubtedly have the talent and together with the Fegai’s have played premiership winning football.
The boys may be better served being given the opportunity of a fresh start after the train wreck of a season 2021 has proven to be.
As Wayne Bennett has often said, “when you listen to the supporters and follow what they want, you end up sitting in the stands with them.
Please note I would play them all against the Roosters, which just goes to show I am a supporter of the club, not an NRL standard coach.
