Rumours and Stuff

I fail to see how this disproves my point that players can play well one year then worse the next.

But they still should consider it.

I reckon he only is at the moment through default. He didn’t end 2023 in it.

Well it was on national TV for all to see him puffing after two seconds on the field.

Umm… probably the bloke I’ve said a million times so far Lukah Morretisea.

And yet he showed more in that one game than Moimosea did in all his. I don’t think he was outplayed in reserves either. I’d have him where Moimosea was at the start of the year in terms of ranking for similar reasons Moimosea got the place originally.

This was due to as you said unavailability but also salary cap rules. And I already said at the start of season, he was top 30 quality. He has physical attributes that are worth giving him a go. Unfortunately it became apparent he has other attributes which affected his performance. And those weaknesses meant Davey was brought in, Hands was brought in and Moretti proved himself which pushed Moimosea further and further down the list.
FFS!!!! Can you 2 get a room! And stop this SHIT!

I dont see the Moimesea debate on the same argument. He'd firstly cost stuff all so doesn't actually effect our squad. We've shown with Morretti this season how we get him in the NRL despite being out of top 30.
The issue is more talent identification and juniors coming thru. We obviously saw something in him that just wasn't there and didnt have a junior good enough to fill the spot. Same goes for Murchie and a few other plodders we've signed. A club our side should have kids that have come thru the system as good as Morgan Harper and LumeLume in NSW CUP. We shouldn't be having to sign guys of that low quality. So as sad as it is not developing a high quality NRL talent it's even more depressing not being able to develop a NRL standard back up.
But this happens at every club. I'd say Jnr on 850k was a far bugger issue as he was playing like a guy that you can get for 350-400k most games.
