Maybe all these injuries are because his body cant take it at F
B, maybe a move to centre will increase his longevity.
I dont see wighton in the centre, i see him at 6,cody 7
If Wayne were the coach, he could give that news. But if JD makes that decision, there will be an almighty explosion. Probably even gets him sacked.

Maybe not brother, if u sat him down showed him his last 3 years playing stats,time off with injurys etc and the fact that he can roam like he does in origin,i believe he would come round, if my informant is true,wighton and cody will end up in the halves, if we could pinch say,meany, trell could play centre.
But, i believe we have bigger problems on the horizon, unless we can get at least 2 props, and id be going hard for penriffs smith and newcastles brodie jones Then we will be short,keon if he isnt poached by the merge,canterbury or raiders, will end up at prop

Our recruitment better be busy in the off season because if we go in with the same ageing squad with the addition of wighton who is 30 we will be in for another season of disappointment we need a halfback winger front rower and an edge forward to put some pressure on or replace keon our team needs a major overhaul as our team didn’t have the mental or physical capacity to compete for the whole season and going by previous times we have travelled I don’t think the trip to Vegas will do us any good

Time to switch off for the remainder of the season. The club will do what is needed hopefully in the offseason, us fans cannot control that. If there’s no one of note to buy for the club then that is out of our control, it’s the same for every club. This same squad pretty much went one game short of a finals spot last year, remember that.

Don’t read the media and don’t listen to rumours, it affects some of us more then others from what I see. Although this year wasn’t to be, as we see all the time in the game it doesn’t take much for things to change.

Also remember it’s the media and is fans who pump these players up, then everyone is quick to turn on them when they don’t live up to the hype, the whole Kyle Turner thing (I know not from “bullying”) affected me a heap, these guys at the end of the day are human and let’s be honest, we all stuff up.

It’s been a ride, and I’ll see you guys next season.

Well said !

I have a feeling that there is going to be a lot of crap regarding the team in the media over the next month or two and for some it might be best to switch off until 2024.

You don’t have a capitulation of this magnitude without a lot of dirty laundry being aired.

Are we sure the coach has been re-signed as is reported in dispatches ??

Lol that’s my point exactly, you said in one breath there is no one of note to buy, then you hear a rumour not even 24hours after the game “no new recruits”. Enjoy the offseason mate.

We have all these so called gun juniors who kill it at junior level then make grade and stop developing
I’d even question that the juniors coming through. None of the Flegg, sg ball or Harold matts made the semis this year and possibly last year also.
Maybe there isn’t as much talent coming through as we thinj

So true. Other teams always seem to bring through these gun juniors and the flourish. South’s rarely have anyone stay at the club and then kick on.
