No never,he is one of those players that has come into FG with a lot of hype and never lived up to expectations and most likely never will.

Yep in fairness to Siro he did display how good a 5/8 he can be in the tackle-shy holden joke.

The big concern for us is he is clearly out of his depth as a 2nd rower in 1sts.Hence is Taylor capable of making a tough decision that won't go down well with certain elements @ the club.Me thinks NOT !

I'm perplexed as to how Akaoula can't force his way into our piss weak forward pack.I don't give a f**k if he may have a defensive deficiency.The thing is Akaoula has that X factor sorely lacking.He is tough & hence he'd be better of following Brownie to a club who values that necessary trait for success in the NRL.

Akaoula should be afforded the same grace as Sirro,as for defence, that is a cop out if that is being held against him ,Moses defence is atrocious and no where near FG standard, yet he is selected each week and there is no way that his attack makes up for his piss weak defence to warrant his selection.

Yes in your opinion only,if he is so good why does he have the dubious honour of leading the NRL in missed tackles ? idiot...!

Taylor said on Triple M tonight that Moses is going all right and is lacking support in defence!!!

Moses is two years away from being a first grader,do we persist with him in the top grade or place Sirro at 5/8,other than that we dont have many other options !

I think Moses already looks like he is a quality option. I don't get comments like this at all.

The money Moses is on they have no choice. He would bust 2nd tier cap I assume. Same with Sironen.
Te Mare looks better than both but will go elsewhere.

Te Mare is another option but as mentioned WT salary cap plays a part in team selections so we most likely wont see him in FG unless injuries arises.For Moses own good and talent he needs to put on 10-12 kgs so he can compete without fear of being trampled or manhandled.

How much is Moses on? It boggles my mind that a player with less than 20 games can command such a high salary.

We should have held Austin to his contract this year and Moses stick it out in NSW cup another year.

One thing I like about Sirro is he can get a good offload away , but he never seems to have any support. Whether this is another game plan to limit mistakes and he is told not to try anymore who knows.

watching the Parra v Penrith game and the efforts of Bryce Cartright. I immediately thought, why can't Siro play like that, surely his size, school boy years as a 5/8 he should be able to do it. Use his size as a wide running forward combined with soft hands , etc

Nah, Cartright must be a lot older, and have therefore, more experience, nah, the facts are.
Cartwright DOB 15-11-94 & Siro 31-7-93, so it's not age. Is it purely the conversion from a back to a forward? Is it JT and the year working on the defence? is it JT and his structures? what the hell is it?

I think Sirro isn't being used as well as he should but its still on him. He needs to do more. I keep waiting for him to kick on but he isn't.
