who shall we buy for halfback?

I do t think there is a halfback in the NRL that would make a lick of difference with the squad we have.
Some of the premier guys would have secured a win tonight and may have strangled Melbourne out of the first game as well.
None of them would have made a difference last week though.
 
The buzz word of late is football IQ

Our team lacks it, across the park.

Jackson Hastings and Adam Douihei are the ones with the high IQs but they aren't playing.
I hope so but both are as slow as a wet week.

I believe there's a post season clean out coming with majority of the forwards seeing turn over.

If this club hadn't any brains they'd negotiate deals to release Brooks, Laurie and Nofo....

I'd even be considering extending Liddle, as depth - passing not good enough but makes a decent back up 9 for Api as we've seen Simpkin still isn't up to it.

Starford showed promise tonight and in the trials but we need centres.

Need to put this team in a stronger position come round 1, 2023 and this is how it's done.

I agree but we need to get better replacements. JH and Ad won’t save us or take us to the next level.
I say we are about 6 players on top of Api and Paps away from being a threat.
We need speed. Genuine speed. We made a break and not one of our backs could catch a stumpy legged madden and get them selves in a position to receive pass.

That Laurie support was laughable.

Speed has always been a flaw for us.
Think the club would've tried to address it by now.
 
Impact forward is a huge need. There was a moment second half where brooks hit seyfarth close to the line in acres of space. Seyfarth got dominated where most backrowers steamroll over the line.
You can bet your balls they are, trying to find get out clauses in their contracts.
Paps especially may destroy his career.

I don’t think so mate - a couple class players in… probably top 5 in the comp in their positions (something we haven’t had in forever) 1 more of them - maybe 2, a couple there or there abouts signings and drop a bit of dead wood and we’re a mid table team…
 
Serious question. Do you suffer from any diagnosed personality disorders or currently on any medication?

All good if you do, I just wanna understand what we’re dealing with here.
Mate with all due respect that’s a pretty shit comment to make.

All good that we don’t always respect/agree with other posters but I think these comments are best left out.

When did it become okay on here to passive aggressively call someone mentally ill for pointing out a players poor performance

Mid table will still miss the finals.
These blokes won’t make the difference we need unless certain other positions are sorted first.

Players of that caliber make other players better man, we get an extra xtra 5% out of the players we have - its not enough… but it’s something.

Our defence has improved a lot this year in my opinion. I think we are torn between playing Madge ball (high percentage) and expansive (Wests Tigers ball) and we don’t have the cattle to do either. The result is a clunky hunk of junk.
