When we say "great on paper" about a core group that is doing below expectations for years, maybe it's time to get rid of the paper and re-evaluate.
They are carrying a number of players that are 30+. Thurston has clocked up a lot of miles over many years as well. They really only have 2 star players in their prime in Scott and Tamou.
In general it's a very poorly constructed roster.
And let's not forget Thurston has never won a premiership as a starter in his life, despite having a lot of talent around him throughout his career. He's overrated at club level.
He has gotten his reputation for greatness from playing and winning for Queensland and Australia in David v Goliath rep games, where his team is always Goliath.
