Which players would you actually keep?

I think the coach is a major reason why we are so bad. He has no game plan at all or maybe better put his game plans are the worst to have ever been seen in first grade.

I think we have the cattle but we need some more spark especially out wide. Lawrence and Richards are not going to cut it. Start with our outside backs and get a coach who knows how to put on an attacking play.

Guys, we cannot talk about sacking the coach. Yes he doesn't seem to be doing a good job but ffs we can't just keep sacking coaches.

We need to sign better players and cut the plodders. Pure and simple.

From the FG team I would definitely keep:

Tedesco
Farah
Tupau
Woods
Brooks
Moses
Simona
Nofo
Sue

The rest can be moved on or kept as depth AS long as we have quality FGs to fill the gaps above. Two Back Rowers, A Centre and a Prop are needed
The moronic game plan Taylor has means you would need to sack all the players and buy 25 back rowers.

The coach is entirely the problem.

Exactly. We could have our choice of every player in the competition and still be duds with a one-out hit-up and them bomb it game plan.

I really hope that this moron has at least half a brain cell and realises that he needs to get some new people around him to coach the club and come up with a game plan. I can't see the club getting rid of him now. Personally I would sack him already.

Unbloodybelievable, some of the threads and posters on here are just that.

Blaming coaches, saying some players will come good or be future superstars. Just bullshit.

It is simple, you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ears.

We just haven't got the cattle and I can't see any improvement for the forseeable future.

The game plan certainly isn't helping, but our roster is easily in the bottom 4.

A few young guys with potential, sure, but a higher percentage of plodders than any other team in the competition.

I'm not convinced on lodge. I think he will come good but ATM he doesn't have much impact.

Hoeters looked good, since naquaima signed the 2 year deal he has been complete shit.

Guys in nsw cup like akauloa, Lamar and funaki might have their flaws but having one of these guys on the bench would add a bit of x factor. Even though it seems obvious Taylor doesn't want this.

Id keep that plus Sue, Lovett needs same opportunity given to Sironen so we can better judge, Hooters looks Ok, Fine, Id keep Richards for another year - his boot is valuable and doesnt cost us. On sensible money these guys can be depth if nothing else.

I'm not convinced on the halves, as yet. Posters can say, potential, potential, potential but f**k I'm yet to see it.

Taylor is trying to employ a game plan that works at the Roosters....trouble is they have always had good second rowers and centres. Until we get them we will continue to struggle.

Most are listing the core players we need to keep. We need to buy more than keep at the moment.

I reckon Brooks, Moses and Sironen have plenty of talent and they have shown that talent. I think the coach isn't getting the most out of them.
