Clearly I'm not talking crap. It's like Parramatta signing Whatuira, Walker, Hicks etc. To strengthen positions with older members, like we did with Moodie (which didn't work). My information is valid, Wesser is 80% coming to the club.

Joel Reddy is the NO 1 next year take that as gospel.

Ok. I'll take that as 80% gospel until I see the team run out in early March...

Ryan is a gun but I wouldn't play him at fullback.

Moltzen gets a lot of hate but he has the ability to be a good fullback and atm he is our best option apart from possibly Brown.

Not to many arguments from me, but if we are keeping Brown, I thought he played well tonight & should be pushed up? Though TBH I thought Moltz had his best game of the season tonight.
Agree, this season is this season, just think Brown offers more (+ the high ball catch) & our future?

Moltzen must be reading these posts fellas, he seemed keen to run the ball back at speed and while he looked to hand off to his wingers a few times he didn't seem to do it all night long. It probably was his best game at fullback last night but he is still heart in the mouth under kicks.

Moltzen has probably locked up the fullback position for the rest of the year based on that one game. If I read this week somewhere Sheens crowing "I knew he was our best option at fullback" or "I told you this kid was good" or whatever I'll scream. Lets see what happens over the next few weeks before you make comment Mr Sheens.

I just hope this is the confidence builder Moltzen needed. He did look good coming into the backline at pace and was a genuine option in attack. Why is it though I am just not confident...

One good game doesn't mean he's not a shit fullback. I'm far from sold. The guy has got no heart. He was hardly tested positionally last night, took three ordinary bombs under little or no pressure.

Yes, he's good with the ball in hand when he is at the line at first or second receiver. But that's only one part of the game, especially for a fullback. All other areas he is a massive liability and will again be found out once again if not this week, then the next.

One good game after 10 shockers! Pfft.

I think most here are smart enough to realise one game doesn't mean much, in my case I am more saying this has played into Sheen's hand and we will be forced to keep Moltzen at fullback and probably listen to the comments of Sheens signing his praises.

Personally I'd like to see Brown there. He looked confident and solid last night and while not flash, he doesn't do too much wrong. If it comes down to a bench position when Lote and Lawrence are playing, it has to be Brown and not McKinnon.

Back to Moltzen, I have been fairly critical of him so to be fair, he played OK last night so I am prepared to acknowledge that but as I say, lets see the damage over the next few weeks.

Marshall to fullback and Lawrence to five-eighth. I know a lot of you will be anxious about that, and I understand, but give Marshall that freedom than Slater and Sam Tomkins have.
