Wallace is bog average and I want a new Half as much as anyone but at this point he is still a fairly important in for our side. Matty Johns show had a stat last night that since they arrived we have won 68% of games where both Sowie and Wallace play compaired to around 40 something percent when 1 is missing.
They should have done individual wins with Soward and Wallace.

We won plenty without Wallace. Not too many without Soward though. I

Idris rumoured to go to Manly with Lyon potentially retiring. If this was to happen I hope it's decided soon so we can use that cash on a Cornish.

With Barrett rumoured to be coaching Manly and two players now linked to rthem, perhaps that is why he has been "put on holiday"?

Bleh Cornish, Canberra have looked way better with Wlliams than with Cornish.

Here's my stat, counting the Parra game, games won without Moylan, 0.

Koroisau was linked to Manly last week I didn't think much of it. But given we just picked up rookies Dockar-Clay & Sione Katoa who both can play hooker he might be on his way out.

Here is the Idris rumour & abit on Korosiau from The ](*,) Mole

IDRIS MANLY BOUND?

I’m getting strong mail that Jamal Idris will join Manly next year. The injured Panther has been spending a lot of time on the Northern Beaches recently and has been telling friends he is keen to join the Sea Eagles in 2016.
Penrith haven’t been getting much value out of the injury-plagued Idris this year and are happy to let the big centre go for next season.

Sea Eagles supremo Bob Fulton is on the lookout for strike players – and Idris – when fit and firing – certainly fits the bill.
Speaking of the Sea Eagles, they made a sneaky bid for unhappy hooker Apisai Korosiau before the June 30 transfer deadline.

HOOKER IN DEMAND
Manly believed the dynamic Korosiau would have been the perfect foil for the steady Mall Ballin and the pair could have worked in tandem in the hooking role.
Korosiau hasn’t been able to secure much game time at hooker at Penrith behind the classy James Segayaro and has even been playing out of position at five-eighth.
Don’t be surprised if he returns to Souths now that Issac Luke is moving on to the Warriors in 2016.

He was going reasonably well in his 6 games this year before he did his ACL. Up until that point he had played 28 from 32 at Penrith. A couple of those he missed were for "personal reasons" rather than injury. Not exactly injury-plagued but an ACL does put you out for many months.

However, it does appear we paid overs for him which might be why the Panthers are not too worried about letting him go.

Haven't been getting value? He was great before getting hurt, who writes this garbage

When your on a reported 600k and play only 6 games this year the knives will be out.
If Idirs can't get his mind together and stay off the booze it would be best if he left.

Exactly, add to that the Wests game in 2013 where Naiqama played fullback after Moylan couldn't play due to second Tier salary cap

Resign BMM, let Idris go and sign an impact front rower. Can make do with Taylor, Peachey, Cartwright, Yeo and BMM, can grind my teeth and deal with Taylor being pushed wide when injury strikes and our untried NSW cup forwards. But even with Merrin I doubt the impact of our front row at full strength.

Good, he has been slowly improving. Firstly starting to get his general fitness, then getting over the back surgery. Since the back surgery, i thought that he was playing better with each game. I think, over his injuries and with some matches under his belt, he will be a star.

And it wasn't too long ago that Idris said that he was happy at Penrith.

Me thinks The Mole is a Dogs supporter who wrote that scathing article about Barrett and Brown.

With Brown going and assuming we are not signing anyone else Id prefer to hang onto Idris. Use him as an impact second rower for some size and power. Wallace on the other hand...
