You’re right but I believe a key issue is the club can’t afford to get higher level assistants.
HBG are cashed up but are only putting in the bare minimum.
At least that is what I’ve heard.
Stef was the last player we had that opposition players don’t like tackling. You could say Royce is that but he’s barely on the field.
Talakai is one of those players so I’d be trying to sign him.
It's a waste of salary cap space, and none of those players are suited to 13 or will be happy playing off the bench.
It creates a problem without actually solving the issues in the squad.
I think we’d be silly to go after an expensive edge back rower. Samuela and KPP are our starters. A depth second rower would be good though.
We need to invest the rest into prop/lock. Go after some Wahs middles.
We should be raiding the Wahs 19/20 year old forwards. Their forwards have everything we don't and they have a logjam of them.
Surely some of them will have looked up to Benji.
Mooney seems like someone we should be targeting if he’s available.
I suppose we’re relying on Richo to be up to date and not busy dealing with the council over Campbelltown stadium.
