    The backrow

    We have a much inferior line up to last year. Blair, Fulton, Thompson, Austin, Anasta, Patterson we signed Naqaima. The issue I see is when layers come off contract like FPN last year and Ethan Lowe this year we are not in the mix. You can't expect fans to keep turning up with squads that far...

    2015 round 10 v Knights

    We get a rough draw and bad calls because we are on the NRL payroll. Cant complain when you are getting a handout. We have a very weak management team upstairs but thats not an excuse of the farce we just witnessed.

    The backrow

    The cupboard is bare. I am surprised Akouala has not featured this year. I like a Sue, Sirro as impact players off the bench. They are not at this stage 80minute first graders. We have no other options.

    Halatau starting

    Halatau was good hit hard. We lost the game in the hit up department and field position. Our kickers were on the back foot all day. Thats where Halatau, Sirro, Galloway even taupau today fell short. The issue we have is Halatau deserves a starting position. Would be lucky to be on the bench at...

    Halatau starting

    He ran for 28 metres according to the NRL website Galloway 53, Siro 55, Taupau 71. Something is seriously wrong against that Knights pack houston, Scott and Smith are getting on in years. We need to start being honest our defence has improved in tight but we are hopeless out wide and our...

    2015 round 10 v Knights

    There is no way to sugar coat this one. That was a performance of a side battling it out for the spoon. I thought we were better TBH if we are not active in the player market we will struggle. Its becoming very obvious we don't have the talent to challenge many teams when they show up to play.

    Rowdy told he's free to look elsewhere.

    He's alright solid player not a world beater. Will be replaced this week by Nof.

    Rowdy told he's free to look elsewhere.

    If BJ Leulia goes to Canberra we should be calling Canberra to pry away Brenko Lee. The kid is a gun and won't get a game in front of Croker and Leulia.

    2015 Rd 9 v Roosters

    Agree totally. we need two 80 minute rep level back rowers ala Cordner, Guerra for the Roosters. Then impact would come from a bench of Sue, Sirro, Lodge, Ava. The Roosters were relentless and stacked the middle of the field in defence then battered us with their strong bench. they did this...

    2015 Rd 9 v Roosters

    I think JT has been solid but he was out coached tonight. They waited until we rested some starters and hit us with Napa, Evans, Tukehaio off the bench. They also played second rowers tighter in defence swarming the middle as our centre pairing out wide was weak. Smart coaching and realistically...

    Tim Simona must be signed

    I would say 350k to 400k on the cap. You just don't know these days what the third party deal is.

    Tim Simona must be signed

    If he goes there is an agenda. I posted the same before we let Koro go. Cap space is a flat out misrepresentation. Blair, Marshall, Fulton, Anasta, Thompson, Koro have gone +others with moltzen headlining others coming off this year. Sure we have upgraded brooks, teddy, Kevin, moses, etc but wtf...

    Tim Simona must be signed

    Does anyone know why we have not re signed Tim Simona. We should have miles of cap room and he is a gun. If we don't it will be Koro part 2.

    JT feeling the pressure already

    JT is on the money here. In my view we started easy with GC (AWAY), STGI (Home). We then had a 5 day turnaround to lay Last years Premiers (Rabbits), then a 5 day turnaround to play the runners up (Bulldogs). We then got lucky with an 8 day turnaround to play the Eeels (AWAy) but moved to ANZ...

    Moses

    Brooks and Moses need to play. We are not going to threaten For the premiership and they need experience. We need some forwards with impact off the bench. Taylor has to wear the blame for this loss with His poor bench rotations.

    2015 R7 v Raiders

    Our issue is lack of depth. Halatau, Buchanan, luani, Lawrence, Lovett should not be in fg. We have Nofo and lodge who are quality to come back in. We need a James roberts, Ethan lowe, Greg bird brought in and others released.

    Moses/Brooks combination

    Its a double edged sword both Brooks and Moses need experience. This loss will be invaluable for the halves in particular. We needed to build reassure, kick for touch and get repeat sets. Instead we threw stupid passes, kicked dead and so on. We played well across the board but thought the bench...

    Blair Gone (Official)

    I hope this isn't a rebuilding plan to front load contracts and sign players for 2016. We have lost the following players since last year Fulton ($350k), Austen ($120k) Gavet ($100k), Blair ($550k), Thompson ($150k) Patterson ($100k), Korobiete ($150k), Nayaivaro ($70k), Anasta ($250k). Thats...
