I could be wrong but I see something in Morretti. He has a lot of heart. If Matalele developed his attitude we'd have two forwards with raw power amd excellent leg speed. Throw in Betham and the pack would be transformed so the style of forwards you want. Quick acceleration and run hard with ability to break tackles and bust the line.
Guys who hurt the opposition and take the gas out of their tanks. Guys like Matterson,Bryce,Hopgood and excellent players skill wise. But they don't hurt the other side. Bust them up and bruise then. You still need these guys but you want a balance. Especially now Jnr has lost his hard nosed approach.

How the he'll is Morretti on a development contract yet Moimesea is top 30.

to be fair Momosea came from top 30 deal at another club and Morretti was outside 30 looking for an opportunity...

it just so happens we were stupid enough to offer Jirah a multi year deal.

Understand you like Lenaz, but in reality he’s a basic workhorse like Yates. We have better and younger players than Lenaz in the system . Mind you, that’s just my opinion

I never heard much about Lenaz so I doubt he is that good. Id say Tuavati,Talagai,Sanders,Betham are the best of them.

Guttered Lenaz has left as he was so tough and a great defender. He will turn out to be better than Yates no question.
However he will probably be too small for the modern day lock and he does not have the skill to be a nrl hooker.
You can’t keep them all and if he wanted to stay to be a hooker I think Matt Arthur is the better long term choice.

Matt Arthur is talented and a great kid however he will have similar problems to his father when he was graded.

If he was good enough for the top 30 last year and this year, why wouldn’t he be good enough in another two years?

And a 21-year-old still playing Flegg doesn’t exactly scream potential. Especially when his best quality is toil.
