I have to say. What about RCG form. I can't think of a better prop at the moment. I was concerned when Parra signed him. I thought at best he will be a solid prop. But he has gone to another level. I'd say he rivals Taoumolo if consider his defensive side.

J Paps is better. He’s the best prop in the game.

Also, there was a rumour, that he was apart of the infamous sex tapes.

I never heard Reg was involved. Mainstream porn probably with that belter of a tash.

Players sometimes need a change.

I thought Blake would be better. But MJ is outplaying him.
RCG has suprised. I wouldn't trade him for Klemmer or Vaughn.
Payne Hass of course. He is a freak.

Blake is lazy. You will get used to that.
Jennings is doing well. I thought once he left the Roosters his form would slide right off in the later years. It hasn't.
Lets see how RCG goes next year and the year after. You want to be a top prop, you need to put in year after year.

Waqa is producing for Parra exactly what he did here, he's always been the kind of player with potential to be the best centre in the comp, but he shows it once a month and is pretty meh for the rest of the month.

His defence seems worse then I remember now

He is. Anthony Griffin had him crazy fit so his speed made him a better defender.

Agree in attack.Big fan.
Defense thou? He isnt making 200+ and 40 tackles...

BA would get more respect as a coach. More of a mans man. Ivan comes across as a bit of a snake. Tactical and smartness he would be superior to BA but I doubt players would see him as a father figure or mentor like BA would have.

Blake has skill. Last game he even put in and become involved. But most the time he is lazy and waits for the game to come to him.

Brad Arthur has yet to coach a team of inexperienced players. When, or if he does, get back to me.

I guess it depends on how you judge it. Josh is a game changer and a match winner.

That 1st paragraph borders on 'utter bullshit'. Hindy your welcome here, but please leave your trolling at the front door. Ya can pick it up on your way out.

Yep very talented. But relies on talent rather than hard work.

Naden (I believe) will have the better career, because he is choosing to build on his talent, rather than just rely on it.

So what happened in 2018?

He gets to chose how he wants to build his team. If he feels it's best to mix juniors with some old heads then it is his choice right?
I reckon Cleary recruited some older heads for the same reason.

You don't see Ivan as a bit of a snake and smug?
BA is more your working class type of guy. These are just impressions I get.

I dont think so. Not talented enough. The young centre Crighton I beleive will however. He just needs more ball. I rate him very high

Hayne and Norman where given the flick and the side bounced back the following season.

 

[betcats]

JFH is very good and he is in my top 10 middle forwards. Give hin another 12mths and he will be top 5. But RCG form is ridiculous. Maybe that Storm prop is better. But if picking NSW side RCG is first named.

Fish is averaging more metres, post contact metres and tackles with a slightly higher tackle efficiency than RCG this season. I wouldn’t swap fish for any prop in the game right now, his athleticism defensively in the middle is so valuable to us. Rcg is playing great but fish has been better imo.

I'm a big fan of the Fish also. Tamou has also been playing great.

All senior players? Come on.
