Schuster would look pretty good at 6 partnering Brooks at 7 for 2023

If he comes I think he comes as a lock or back rower. He’s a growing boy but yea lots of potential to work with. I think he’s Benji favourite.

Josh Feledy joins the club. Named in flegg team on the bench

Needs to shed some kilos and get fitter. He is a gun.

just a question what's going with woods is the deal off or something cause supposedly this was a done deal a few weeks ago since then there hasn't been any updates on it

fake rumour don't want him anyways. He should finish off his career in England where he should've gone a couple years ago

Just a reminder people that Sheens 1st grade debuted both Benji and Robbie as18 year olds back in 2003 …. my point being that don’t be surprised that over the course of next 2 years some of those promising young juniors get the taste of NRL under his stewardship.

Benji and Robbie didn't have 120 kg monsters running at them week after week as 18 year olds. Compare the size the squads in 2005 to today. Guys like Suaalii might be able to handle it but the Roosters are easing him into the game. I think the halves of the future have to be big and mobile such as Cleary and Cherry- Evans.

 

[Jolls]

We’re got this bloke called Adam Doueihi who is pretty good

Sorry Tigerman but AD is pretty average. He could be pretty good if he fixes his turnstile defence, runs with the ball in two hands, develops a kicking game and organises the attack. At the moment there is a lot of hype but not much substance.

A couple of tackle breaks does not make a 5/8..

SEN Reporting swap deal imminent with Brooks to Newcastle and frizell to tigers... All we can do is pray

Was limping badly last weekend having had a down year. Sounds about right for WT.

Schuster obviously needs to trim down but he offers a complete game - running, excellent passing and kicking plus he will tackle. I'm not sure where the rumour started but I hope it is true. He offers flexibility being able to play 5/8, lock and second row.

Shuster is overweight and error prone you know the droppsies

He is potentially a very good player but he is also a fringe first grader. If you get him you get him for cheap and it's about giving him an opportunity.

Not to mention those no look passes.

If I had a pass like that I wouldn't want to look at it either.

 

[Stevec]

I hope we aim a bit higher not semi retirees and rejects .If we keep picking the leftovers we will be perpetually near the bottom end of the table

Wasn't even selected last week - for a gun player in a must win game. Manly/ Des may have a better read on him than WTs fans.

Frizell would walk straight into our team, no questions asked. Anyone bagging him as a potential Signing needs their head read and ask themselves honestly who better could we realistically sign. Friz and Paps would be a huge leap in the right direction as our starting back rowers.

Yep, agree on the style & size of players today vs 2005. But The Roosters threw Walker into the mix pretty much as soon as they could last year and I reckon he's smaller than Alfie Langer! And yes, Suaalii, was actually kept back for most of last season but has found a home on the Wing since Round 6 and looks a superstar in the making. Billy Smith is the one who has copped the career changing injuries over the past 2 years.

Sure when he's not injured.

He has played 20 games a season for the last 10yrs. If he joined he would be the best backrower we would have had since Ellis hands down. Having him with Papa locks in the edges very very well plus gives us large forward & 2nd phase play upside.

I’m a big Frizz fan but he’s had an off year. Hopefully he comes good if we get him.
