I understand what Ram is saying....
Tepai is going ok. And he is only 20 yld. So its not like he is anywhere his peak. But some people blo there nuts over him. KE should start over Tepai.

And yes a toiler like Gower offers more ball playing skills and I reckon the best defender we have behind Scott. He will develop into a very good player I think. But Jnr at moment is in the top 10 props in game. He will be missed hugely.

Look at the fullbacks in the game. Gordon is going well but he is still in the bottom 2-3 fullbacks in the game.
You have your top tier guys like - Slater - Inglis - Moylan - RTS - Dugan - Tedesco - Boyd - Stewart

You next bunch - Munster - Tribovij - Barba - Coote - Morris - Gagai

Then the bottom lot - Mead - Gordon - Mitchell - Wighton - Hoppa

Gordon might have a few great games but I could not promote him due to his age an lack of ball playing ability. He looks so good cause we had Robinson. I think we may be forced to re-sign him and he is good enough to do a job but he isn't the best prospect out there.

Unless Edwards can play 80 minutes he's more effective coming off the bench than starting.

He can. He played 80min against the Dogs for 14 hitups for 116m, 28 tackles, 6 tackle busts, 1 offload, 1 line break assist. 4 missed tackles though.

Teps is playing in the middle not out wide. Ke might not be as effective as you think if he has to play in the middle. Teps has to develop some ball skils like james Graham or a hit and spin and offload. Id he is going to be a pure battering ram, he will improve real slow

Missed 4 tackles - Same as scott nd one more then Jnr and Teapi.
He also scored two tries. And made 154 mtrs. He is not the most consistant at the moment but when he is he will sure help NSW

Who would want Benji? Maybe a team who is ready to push for a title and have a great 7 -9 -1. Melbourne maybe?

Any team rebuilding would see him as to old and mot teams wanting quality halves will not see him as good enough.
300k tops these days I reckon.

Not sure what stats you are reading but these ones say he missed 6, scott missed 4 and Junior & Tep missed 2. Click on player stats, then tackles.

Missing 6 tackles is Sandow-esque
