We are talking about cover aren't we? Our backline is fine. You hate To'a, we get it, but he also scored some incredible tries that I doubt Averillo scores. Averillo may score some that To'a can't. To me they cancel each other out. You want a real problem? Lightweight Hope as backup hooker...I'd...

Because we have Makasini and Doueihi that can cover centre. We also have Luke Laulili. If you want to add Averillo you need to get rid of one. He ain't signing anywhere for 200k or 250k.

We can just buy Averillo and solve all problems.

Not sure I agree Arthurs or Averillo make a difference to our backline, but I agree on a couple of extra forwards. That is where we have lacked depth all season. Getting run down in our most recent games ironically was because of injury and needing to replace our centres with a utility. One...

Only 1 team was decimated with injury and that was Souths. Either way, the comp this year had 8th spot get 32 points...that is a high cut-off and indicates a comp with a clear gap between top and bottom 8. Even if the bottom teams were more competetive, it actually increases our chances to make...

We're in big trouble then. Basically going to need a whole new team. Imagine signing Turuva, Taylan May, Luai and Skelton and not being happy. I'll let the forum recruitment experts work out who the right players are because clearly the club have no idea how to sign guys with "elusive zip"...

Up by plenty in 2 of the last 3 and get run down comfortably. It wasn't all Mason, but he is a massive defensive liability. The rest just switched off...particularly the forwards.

What the hell is this?

Another doofus play by Seyfarth. He undoes any good work he's involved in.

This is subjective propaganda. I'd believe you more if you fronted up with some real stats, but you never do. Either way, I would argue that the majority of tries are not a foot race to the line.

Great stat...hopefully Vicious can stop the propaganda.

Our team is not slow. You overstate this to the extreme. Most of our backline players are sufficiently quick in their position. If you're looking for Hamiso or Addo-Carr quick, then there are only a handful of those players in the NRL as they are rare.

It's so interesting that you bang on about speed, then suggest Albert Hopoate. I'm sure a 6 paragraph response will follow about how you subjectively believe he is one of the most underrated and fastest players in the NRL.

I always thought he was unfairly criticised. Particularly because he was still quite young while with us. He offers way more than his price tag and as a depth signing, covers wing and centre providing more value than a straight winger/centre. If we put it in tye context of replacing say...

I think generalising is dangerous. Klemmer was a much better player when he was younger. Taumololo, David Fifita, Aaron Woods, James Tamou...all these players were much better when they were younger. I do think you find your own narrative sometimes without consideration for how it can be...

And has unreliable hands. Too many dropped balls usually during a play the ball.

With all the positive things going on at the club this is definitely the thing to focus on. Nailed it.

Yep. Wouldn't cost a lot and knows how to find the line.

Using the word gronk at 43 has an air of irony about it.
