Keep with the Herb. His game is improving all the time and he should be given more time to prove his worth. As for King, NO!
As much as i like monaghan, do we really need him? Campese is the most dominant ball player in the NRL and once herbert settles into his role a bit more they will be a very effective halves combo.

Mate, no use trying to be sensible!Exactly right!
All those wanting to drop herbie, remember back when we had a dominant ball playing halfback, it wasnt that long ago, his name was todd carney and Campo was hindered next to him.
the Herb has had 10 games to prove himself, campo didnt shine until well into his 30's, would you idiots give Mc Crone the same amount of time? FFS even penrith didnt want to keep him. Some of you blokes have f**kn lost it.
Herbert - unfortunately is the worst halfback in the competition right now.
Now the fincy is out.
And that has nothing to do with his inexperince.
He just doesnt have those instincts nor the basics of a good halfback.
TBH - I think Waddell even Flanagan would be a better options at halfback.
He runs slightly handycap and passed like one also. Butchers the right side attack for the raiders.
Thas why Monaghan and Harrison are being under utilised on attack.
A solid hooker and halfback is holding the raiders from becoming a quality team
Monas filled in the Manly halfback role very well, he guided the team around and his kicking game was top notch. He is definitely a much better than Herbert.

How does Weyman know?
Maybe Monnas can play 1/2 and hooker at the same time for Parra , he would do better than what they have.
I've always been of the opinion, Moneghan was treated very unfairly by the Manly club and in particular Des Hasler.but . . but. . . didn't Monas play hooker and The Ox halfback? And I hate to remind people, but wasn't he playing hooker in the losing Manly grand final team, not the winning one? I know that's a nasty tarnish to put on the guy, but I'm pretty sure that's what happened.
Monas always wanted to play halfback (or 5/8th), but his coaches always preferred him as hooker.
A major reason he went to The Silvertails was that they said he could play halfback, but they subsequently bought The Ox off The Storm, so Monas was back to hooker.
Am I having false memory regression here? He's a hooker in everyone's eyes except his own.
