No, I wouldn't drop Vagana. Even though he isn't setting the world on fire with his attack, we definitely need his experience out there

Yes.
He has been the worst performing backline member on a price/performance ratio.
I have trouble bagging reick at 60k/p/year for missing 1 extra tackle than 330k/p/year plus job, man.

for those that dont know

reick + merrit + goldy + simmo + Kent = vagana

I am frothing at the mouth at how fuggin average this dudd has been!!

Of course not. Sure he has been a major disappointment so far but take him out of the backline and replace him with another youngster and we could have the most inexperienced backline ever in the NRL.

I would like someone to fire a rocket up his arse though. :eek:

Or maybe give him a Kiwi jumper to wear under his Sharks jersey.

hahaha this thread reminds of the simpsons 3d episode

anyone watched the movie tron

no
no
no
no
no
no
yes

i mean no

and my opinion as a dogs fan = No. U dont have anyone else 2 replace him with. Not having a dig at the sharks but seriously.... either keep him in and give him early ball or put him at 5/8. He isnt a centre that hits the ball at pace, he needs room 2 move, hence why the sharks attack isnt his style

price/performance ratio - fair point we did pay alot.

But Reefy
If the coach is picking the side on pay cheque size, well now we do not want that.
Vagana remains the best centre at the club.
I have been more than dissappointed with his defence.
As with the team in general, I remain unconcerned by his attacking ability, but defence is letting us down, and our threequarters have been the 2nd worse offenders.
Our kick chase is no1 IMO.

just on the Mellars promotion what does everyone think of mcgoldrick going outside vags, and mellar into the centres, it could tighten the defence on vags side and also put some more size in the centres?

Probably not a bad idea but Mellars will have to earn his spot in the top grade. That would take a few more games yet I'd think.

NO.
Nige is paying the penalty of not having a good ball player on his side of the field just wait till Dykes arrives then we will see the real Vagana step up. I'm with Schooner on the Bailey move back to PL I'm sick of him jumping in the backline looking for glory and stuffing every move up. IMO he's a bloody hog and penalty giving show pony, why the hell we resigned him I'll never know.

I wouldn't drop him. Sure he's not performing at optimum, but I think he is a very steadying influence in our very young and inexperienced backline.

Keep him there.

If you asked me this question this time next year, I'd say punt him for sure.

Hopefully this time next year he will be in devastating form and we will all be wondering why we ever questioned his place in the team.
