Who’s fault is it ?

Sharks forwards for throwing 5 metre passes at the death when they didnt need to

Said that about 4 times in 3 mins

Titans debuting yet another fullback. They must grow on trees up there. Meanwhile the blind mice on our R&R group are flat out finding their arses. Don't come back with Iongi, one swallow does'nt make a summer.

We've had Gutherson at fullback ever since he replaced Bevan French.

Yep, nothing wrong with that. Genius move by BA but we have'nt had anyone on our roster who could put pressure on Gutho for his position. BA was only one voice on the R&R group

I don't think 'putting pressure on' star players is even a thing any more, at any club. They are on huge money, which limits the amount you can spend on their backups/competitors. If their form drops off, they're expected to play through and regain their form in first grade. Genuine NRL players getting dropped to reserve grade is extremely rare these days.

To sound like Mr Escobar

How many premierships we won in that time?

True, what I meant was we needed someone coming through showing some promise as depth. That has been a major problem for us in a number of positions. Some other teams don't seem to have that issue to the same extent. I agree you're likely to lose the better ones but that should'nt worry a development club like us
