In light of the recruitment decisions over the last 2 seasons, makes one wonder. Contract extensions, for 2 players of little urgency, at a time when the team was was becoming unravelled through poor position filling, recruitment choices, combined with a crisis in finding the answers, and major players left unsigned- the timing was not just poorly chosen, it was undiplomatic. A real "huh?"... just as the club was dealing with a cap shortage for key players, 2 who nobody else would want, get chunky extensions. Ever since the last round vs Penrith in 05, have always wondered what jnr. was doing in the 25... Passes went over the sideline, hasn't been a tackler, not very decisive, seems to have trouble staying upright at times. Good with ball in hand, and no defence to get in the way, but apart from that... Seems more like a sprinter who has made a late change to RL. Wonder what happened with these extensions? Recall jnr being one, fitz the other. But shortly after that, it was announced that Fitz, Hodgo, Galea and Whats would finish this year.
There must be oversight on recruitement, selection and positional strategies.
