Moran gets released from bottom of the table Wigan, but he's good enough for us? Riddell a second rower? And McGuire is nothing more than a lethal support player, he has no kicking game and his passing is sub standard. Sinfield is a good lock but in no way a five-eighth, he doesn't have the skills or vision.
Can't argue too much with the rest but I can tell you, Thompson and Solomona wouldn't come to us to play off the bench, and I think you'd need at least one prop on the bench. I don't know why you'd want Ali either, he is struggling with form and fitness in the ESL and I can't see a move to the NRL changing that.
My post had you read all of it, mentioned that Solomona & Thompson would be in the Front Row rotation. Both have played plenty of front row & well. It's not a position that is foreign to them by any stretch & I think the way they play suits what we need here.
Moran I also said has had a bad year, but prior to Wigan & every year since he left here, he had been killing it over there. Good players don't turn to sh*t in that short a time even if the team is up to sh*t. Thats like saying McKinnon, Morris or Morrison would be bad buys because they play for Parramatta.
Lauititi won a game for Leeds the other week coming from behind. He turned the game for them & got the momentum to switch. He is a very capable game breaker & is every bit the player Solomona is.
As for your thoughts on Sinfield & McGuire I couldn't disagree more but that's your opinion & thats fine.
I just picked my team, that I think would be a realistic proposition under cap, & one that I'd like to see. I wasn't looking to please anyone but myself. You mightn't, but I'd love to see that team go around.
