We aren't that bad off in the forwards like others think, but we still don't have that final weapon in attack.

I based me prediction off 8th on what we have right now, if Arrow and Latrell come then I’ll alter my prediction!Ooh I don't know about that Handy. I reckon we will have Arrow and we've got Murray the gun Sua with a full pre season as well as lowe big Tom B the best hooker in the comp an improving Tatola and mongrel Knight. Up and comers like Amone Johns and Sironen. Not a bad pack actually. Our halves are solid and you watch Jimmy step up with a full pre season and injury free and Braidon to be injury free as well. Agree we need a couple more forwards to round the team off. I am really looking forward to start of season. I'll let you know after round 6 if we'll make the semis
Not sure about that Spock, but I can see what you mean. The Knights and Titan packs are about the worst.
Mate that pack is garbage.Ooh I don't know about that Handy.

It is a lot of faith. Don't forget Jack Johns. I think he's coming along nicely. And we might get to see why Souths bought Kurt Dillon to the club soon.
Johns, Sironon, Dillon, Rodwell and that Kaulontangi or whatever his name is might step forward. Then there's that Intrust Cup player of the year we bought down.
Forwards take a lot longer to develop.
Dont get me wrong mixo, i hope im wrong,i bleed red and green, and i want us up there at least in the 8, but weve virtually the same players with big loses, i suppose we can hopeOoh I don't know about that Handy.

Eventually douhi will become the second coming of sutto,and while your not convinced with himat FB its chalk and cheese comparing him and AJ he attacks the ball and puts his body on the line,he is fearless
That's very true. But with most of our young forwards coming through, they've been playing next level down for a few years now. There is only one way to see if they are ready and that's play them. Bellamy does it down south all the time and has done for years. And I consider Bennett a better coach and he's been doing it for thirty years.
I would just like to add I believe Tatola should be on that list of better than interchange standard, he started quite a lot this year and he was very good in a breakout season for him. Imo Tatola is better than interchange standard based on what I have seen.
I think later on his career that’s where Douiehi could end up.
It appears Wayne has been telling porkies again. Lol
I guess at the start of 2019 when we look back it was unknown as to how Knight and Tatola would go. We didn’t know Turner would step up and do a fine job at centre either.
Probs not at this stage especially if we have a couple of injuries in the pack as well as origin.
Sorry mate which Intrust Super Cup forward was that? Did I miss something?
There are some Souths fans now panicked a bit by what Bennett says in the media re us not going for Latrell, but tbh I’m not phased at all in regards to Wayne saying we aren’t interested in Latrell, I’d say that confirms we are and Wayne doesn’t want any spotlight on us whilst we sort it out, Wayne the old fox knows how to play the media like a fiddle! Ie.... the coaching situation with Seibs and the Roberts situation etc.....
Douiehi isn’t slow but he’s not lightning either, he did better imo in a handful of games at fullback to what AJ did in 50 plus games back there. I liked how Douiehi wouldn’t shirk the tough stuff and would put his body on the line especially in defence and on kick returns. Douiehi was a big metre eater as well and he got his hands dirty a lot with the shit work. We saw glimpses of ball playing back there which he will work on more. If we don’t get Latrell I’m convinced with GI mentoring him that we need to persist with Douiehi at the back. If Latrell comes and gets injured or it doesn’t work out at fullback we are lucky we have Douiehi there as a good back up, he’s not great but he’s better than solid at the back imo with potential to get much better. Also Douiehi was very safe under the high ball.
Hi Peter
Not sure.
