Interesting comments by Ryan Girdler here. He thinks we'll struggle to score points, and that Nathan just isn't creative enough. He also doesn't think Luai is up to the rigours of FG.

Cleary has this label of not being super creative but he really is an excellent half and has developed each year he has been in first grade.
Luai may not look like every other 5/8 in the game but that’s what I like about him, you can’t tell what he is going to do.
He can’t be a worse defender than jimmy and if he fails May and Burton are waiting for a chance.
Some halves have players around them that only need half a chance to score a try.
We don’t have that. mansour, Edwards and Whare need to be handed a gift to score and are still a good chance of bombing it.
It’s a team sport, the halves have to set up tries but their job is so much easier if you have a fullback who is a threat, a lattrel or Sivo causing angst for defenders.
For a while last year we became a good “team”, the players were fighting for each other.
We can do it again this year, but everyone is accountable, not just the halves.
