The frustrating thing is that there is a fair amount of talent in that team. Mullen, McManus, Uate, Leilua, and a few in the pack are genuinely great footballers. Hell, even Gower and Boyd have their moments.
The same attitude problem that has been there since Joey hung up the boots is still an issue.
Your forward is old and tired. Even accounting for the fact Mason and Snowden are out tonight, Bennett has recruited (IMO) pretty poorly in the forwards. Smith and Scott are perfect examples, good players years ago when he won a comp, but over the hill and over paid. They lack genuine strike in the back row, they need someone like a Cordner (who just scored) or Papalii to give them another dimension. Rocow has potential but i dont think he'll ever be on those guys level
Need to find a real halfback too.
Their backline is fairly impressive, Gagai, McManus and Uate are quality. Joey is just ok, could easily upgrade there. Princess Darius needs to be moved on, simply doesnt put in enough at club level. And Mullen can be a good piece.
But it all comes back to the forwards, not enough talent in there
