Let him go, we need premiership players and he doesn't fit the criteria, he hasn't got the natural talent to be nothing more then a toiler for us out wide.

Lacks speed & general skill.

He did play well for us in the latter part of this yearfor us, however i do believe we can find better talent either through our juniors or on the open market.

I don't think Rooney is much better, yet he won a Premiersip?

Look, I like Petersen because he is an EXCELLENT finisher (some of the tries he has scored with no space - genius!) and has truckloads of passion.

He does find the line, though, and his defence seems to have improved (look at the Sharks game; Merritt got outside him, he turned, chased and put him into touch).

He's nothing magnificent, but I would like to see him stay.

I really think he's more talented than most people give him credit for.

Rooney is more talented, he has the potential to be a great wonger when you consider his size, speed & strength and he has also seems to have developed a knack of breaking the first tackle aswell, Peterson has this trait which is good.

Both are good finishes, no argument from me there, however i do believe we need genuine strike power on the wings if you know what i mean, players like a grothe etc

Oh let him go and play Union.
He is a shithouse player anyway so he should feel right at home in that code.

Yeah, I mean who needs a winger who puts in, runs hard and finds the try line?

Gees, some people...

Yeah? Since When?
The last time i saw him play he threw a shithouse pass to Wade McKinnon and it ended in a Roosters try.

Yeah...Great Player.

The 2nd Paul Carige.

If Grothe can stay uninjured he will be remembered. He has always impressed me and how he didnt get further at the Roosters is a mystery. Great player if he can stay uninjured. Howvere Osteo Pubic is very hard to overcome ive heard and Billy SLater is missing the tour to fix it.

I agree to a point.

I don't think Sideshow is the quickest winger.

Yeah, last agem I saw Caylo play he threw a hospital offload to Mini who ran 40m.

Thus Caylo sucks by your logic.

You must be gorgettting his freakish tries, his try'saving tackles when his centre deserts him and his runs.
