For what it is worth, not much I suspect since I am not the coach, but in my opinion if we can't prize Terry Campese out of Canberra for 2011, then by far our only and best option would be to bring back Tim Smith. If we can at the same time attract some decent gorilla forwards, then I feel with a top notch running half partner in KK, who is showing he has a brilliant running game and can play as foil in attack and can take the presure of with kicks in general play, we would see the best come out of Timmy and the team as a whole.
When Tim was with us earlier he was essentially the go to man, Finch really was mainly a catch and pass player with limited options in attack and particularly in running with the ball. The burden was mainly on Tim's shoulders to come up with the big play. This was obviously too much for him to handle considering his problems. With better creative personnel around him, second time around and hopefully more maturity in dealing with his problem he could really step up this time.
The key for mine is the forwards. So like I said, if we can amass a dominating type of pack, then can you imagine having Feleti Meteo, T Smith and K Keating all playing together and each capable of creating spearheads of attack from anywhere on the field? The opposing defences would not be able to isolate one of them with numbers in defence for fear of leaving to much room for the others to do what they do. I can see it being a nightmare for teams trying to work out how to contain these three potential geniuses collectively.
If we went down this rout I can't see players like Inu and Hayne having to much problem finding holes in the defence.
I think these three have the potential of being the best attacking scrum base since we last one a GF. One other benifit of bringing back Timmy, he would be I would think, a lot cheaper a this point in time then Campese.
I would have had a double but I knocked on the first intercept attempt.
