Two points.

1. Might be the last we see of Kennedy.
2. one for @Frenzy. Reckon the team is burnt out. The intensity change got the better of them . Ran out of gas

Disappointing to watch to say the least, but looking at the bigger picture, Fitzy has taken a brand new team that finished 9th last season to finishing 2nd in his first year & being 2 weeks away from a grand final. Invaluable experience for a lot of young blokes, all we can do is look forward & it never gets easier to say, but there’s always next year.
Oh stop it. Fitz didn’t win a semi final this year. Just like his dad. Useless. I expect Dino will be looking to cut him by November.

What do you do with mcines and dale. Wades past it, fifita offers more than him
tbh I don't know.
love what mcinnes did this year.
adapted very well to his role.
Wade's getting close but he is the most likely candidate we have for how 13 is used by the top sides.
Finucane prop rotation.

1. Well, he's got a contract for 2023 and I haven't hear anything about him wanting to leave. That's not to say they wouldn't release him if someone came knocking. Who needs a fullback? I wouldn't be surpised if Bennett was having a look. There are other long term options. Dykes for one who I think will end up a 6. Then we have a kid called Siteni Taukamo who is a pistol and a potential gun and few other good uns. Can't see Bubba here as a long term option

2. I reckon the most burnt out are the most injured and they were brought back in or battled on because they were playing semis. Finucane, Kennedy and Sifa all have injuries that need long rests. Bring them back underdone and the pressure mounts on everyone else, which should happen because they play for each other. It does burn them out though, across the squad. I remember a game sometime in the last few rounds when I spoke of fatigue errors. That never really went away.

Yet, I thought they were a chance in every game because of the same play for each other attitude. The semis, the higher intensity, the inexperience, the walking wounded was too much in the end.

Reading this thread there are different folk wanting different players to leave or are at least out of favour

The focus is on Finucane, Fifita (who is going), Wade and even McInnes.

I ask the forum this. Who will be the leaders if these were all shown the door,

It's a ridiculous notion to think an entire leadership team will be broken down.
