Jarryd Hayne - Make him an Eel for Life

Slater is a better fullback but he and Hayne are on par as footballers.

Hayne has a major weakness (work rate) that makes him unsuitable for fullback. Slater is perfect for fullback but unsuited anywhere else. He is too small for wing or centre and lacks the skills (especially kicking) for the halves.
Slater also has better leadership from what I can see.

Why don't we just ask other clubs to take over the contracts of our under-performing players and to pay overs for them? Surely these other clubs are really stupid. BA is a f**king idiot.
You don’t get it mate. We just need to piss them off. Sack them. Give them the old ‘on your bike you muppet’.

It’s easy!

Anyhows I dont see our 1-7 as an issue. Its decent and if guys find form it has potential to be top 5 backlines.

Bigger issue is forward and hooker.

8 Alvaro
9 Kaysa
10 Terepo
11 Lane
12 Tepai
13 Brown

14 Taka
15 Jnr
16 Manu
17 Mannah

That is how id roll with hope that Kafusi, Evans, Niakuore have huge offseasons and displace Taka and Mannah based on becoming more explosive players.
Confident Tepai and Lane can go from 6/10 guys to 8/10.
With Terepo and Alvaro we know what we get. Same goes for Brown.
And as much as Mahoney seems the future I would still open rnd 1 with Kaysa being his last chance for now. I like his energy and pittbull like aggressiveness.
I like this but I’d swap taka for Mahoney, play kaysa 1st 20 then bring on Mahoney and use kaysa as middle or 9 later in the game

He was a gun. In the three years before he joined us Souths scored the most points on the NRL. Sandow was on fire. Bennett, the Queensland selectors, and Russell Crowe were all over him.
Bennett and the selectors - metaphorically speaking.

Russell Crowe - literally.

No offence Gary but your question is stupid. We paid top dollar for a half that isn’t top quality. Maybe we should of hardballed Corey into signing for 5-600k (take it or leave it situation). Not paying massive overs especially considering his attitude and antics.
You must realize that when we signed him on his current deal we were in a massive 2016 shitstorm, Norman was in the top 3 halves on form and every parra fan was praying for his signature..and he was in high demand from other clubs

If not...we’ll ill refrain from stating the obvious
