Expansion is really ridiculous when you consider that talent pool. Not a lot to work with hey.

Ain’t that the truth. Blows out nearly every game. Because most teams are struggling to find 17 NRL standard players, throw in a few injuries and your stuffed, throw injuries in key positions and it’s season over. Of course PVL football is also not helping with the referees now basically controlling the momentum of games

League runs the risk of becoming like Union to an extent (already has) in that people don’t know what penalties are being given for.

He’s getting old, he could do with the rest.
1. Bula
2. Skelton
3. Turuva
4. Makasini
5. Laulilli

** Try and sign a mid season recruit ASAP.
- Highly unlikely the Dolphins would let Averillo go, but he won’t be in their full strength top 17, so it could be worth trying.
- Similar story with Izaac Tago, very unlikely the Panthers will let him go, but it could help them keep some others long term, so worth an enquiry
- Sione Finau - young, tall, strong, fast and athletic. We don’t have enough backs that fit that description and he’s not getting any NRL opportunities at the Raiders, I think he would be gettable.
- James Schiller - he is also young, tall, strong, fast and athletic. He is rarely getting an NRL opportunity at the Knights and being a specialist right sided centre or winger he fits the description of what we are currently lacking.

I would move Laulilii to centre instead of Turuva, but much of a muchness really.

We cant even get a dispensation to play Siale Fainga'a who i have a good opinion of because Toa is an option

Interesting you say you would rather Laulilli at right centre instead of Turuva.
It may not be your reasoning, but a loud voice and experience NRL winger in Turuva might be what Makasini needs to help bring out the best in him at left centre.
Luke Laulilli would be a good attacking threat at right centre. His defence would be a concern, but probably no worse than anyone else we currently have available to select at right centre.

Generally the team has a terrible record with players when “hoping for the best “..

Wasn’t Luke a good fullback coming through the ranks ? If so maybe try him there if Bula is still not back in two weeks …
