or go and buy Dean Hawkins and get a release from souths for 2023
OFFICIAL Adam Doueihi #227
- Thread starter TIGER
- Start date
3rd ACL on same knee in what 5yrs?
He will miss part of next year at least.
Hopefully Laurie will come into 5/8th, Wakeham is terrible and Smith even worse. Unless we sign someone with our spare roster spot/trade a player.

Yeah
Terrible luck for him
Poor lad....
Looked bad.
Saw a few like that over the years with the likes of Teddy and Moltz.
He was having a decent game too and defending well (for the first time this year)
Third ACL? Might be a dark road ahead for him.... I wish him the best. Truly believe he has a good team/support system around him.

I genuinely believe Sheens will not select Laurie again this year.
I could be wrong though.
Wakeham, in. ✅️
Based on Laurie’s performance today in Cup, he should not be picked. He was terrible. Wakeham was better than he was.

I think you are right - Sheens is pretty pigheaded. Shame really because i think Laurie would go OK at 5/8 - he is not a FB yet we keep running him there in reggies as well.
Bye round ahead.
Time for Sheens to seek dispensation and go to market - recruit a genuine 7 and play Brooks at 6 for the remainder of the year.
Kurt Falls?
Superleague option?
Pezet, loan deal?

Maybe Josh Hodgson? There is also that centre that played for Broncos and Knights but name slips my mind.
Either way, he's up against it massively now.

Laurie was average in the first half but looked better in the second. With Books at 7, we need a creative 5/8 and Laurie is a better ball player than Wakeham or Smith.

Maybe API half Brooks 6 Jake at 9
Don't think Jake can go 80 though. Rua to 14 or Daine?

I'm guessing Laurie is about to be released. Or was, until this injury to Doueihi.
Would not move Api he needs to be our 9.
Post match he made a comment that young Laurie did well in nsw cup. Didn’t call anyone else out. Be a shame think Laurie is probably our most skilled half in the club. He also has energy to cross the park and support which is something we need. Defending is a major concern but lets face it none of our halves make crunch tackles.
I wouldn’t either. He was our leader today and we need him & Staines to build. They need support but felt we started to get the combo working well in the 2nd half consistently.
2nd half Laurie played more in the line as well whilst filling in at fullback maybe a sign. Laurie didn’t seem happy at his post match interview though.

Will Smith would be the logical choice. He's the only 6 at the club besides AD so I don't know if he'd be eligible based on that.
