Whilst the usual dribble is ongoing about a player that is obviously at the back end if the roster and what you might call a project, the most important issue facing the team is that there is no fullback and if we are honest, no obvious NRL hooker in the 29 squad.
Until that is solved, no argument around a bottom of the squad player is achieving anything. We can make a competitive team in most positions, but without a first choice 2 of the spine , it's déjà vu.
Hope we hear something from our newly appointed HOF soon, the club needs a strong voice in that position.
Gutho, French, Norman, Smith and Hoffman can all play fullback.
And Gutho was our best player at fullback during 2017 when we were finals bound, additionally it takes around 2 years to return to full fitness from an ACL!!
We have Mahoney at hooker, why upgrade him just yet when we may not have too, there is money in our cap to move him to top 30 if they don’t change the development player rules (also what if he hurts himself during the off-season? Aren’t we better to wait and see when we have that ability to do so)
Why wouId our HOF be doing media? Do HOF from other clubs do media ?
Anyhow I know you have been questioning our media apartment, so surely the last week was an improvement? Plenty of training photo’s, interviews with new players, release of our development players, a review update and a pretty decent almost 8 minute interview with BA
