quote: and Kelma Tuilagi were all identified and signed by Fulton. right there is all the proof anyone needs that Rothfield, literally, has no idea what he writes about. Tuilagi is the worst defensive sec rower in the comp and it was us who, stupidly, "identified" him. One thing with Fulton...

We all know Brooks probs...lack of creativity in opp 20. That did not change last night. He had tons of shots and came up with nothing in their 20. His long kicking was great though and his D strong. We just need 'someone' with creativity. Not easy to find...but we need a Cody Walker type...

Blore also has a shoulder charge from state cup. (He was binned twice) Not sure if he is facing suspension as they have not updated state cup stuff.

Naden got 3 weeks. AJ has been TERRIBLE defensively at center, so it is now a real issue. We have very few outside backs left.

3. Klemmer 2. Ice 1. Brooks Api also great.

Fantastic prospect. Has the two things you can't teach...size and speed. The rest he will master over time, but he has the size and speed to end up elite.

Staines out 12 weeks is tragic...not only was he going great, it now means 12 weeks of Nofaluma again. When people were posting everywhere "no path back for Nofaluma now"...I just 'knew' one of our wingers would get hurt. I am starting to believe we are cursed. Brooks 'and' Nofaluma yet...

Has mentally joined Manly already. Best mates with many of their players. He is a waste of a spot. Should be released immediately...so should Fainu, who is useless and the dud one of the brothers (thanks Madge, 2.5 year NRL deal for a bloke who won't ever play NRL). Free up those two spots...

Another myth... "A hell of a lot"...he was a kid at the Roosters and acknowledged he was cocky as a TEENAGER. He went to Manly and fell out with DCE. Went to Salford and slayed them...is still revered, carried them to a GF...fans love him. Won player of the year. Then transferred to Wigan...

This is fast becoming an urban myth... I have mates 'very' close to English RL (Leeds, GB and Wigan) and all have said they never heard a thing about any clash AND that Bateman is not the type of bloke to say "won't play with him"... Think about it...if you really believe it, that means...

When that kick went up with 8 to go...Talau had multiple choices as a fresh sub. 1. Hurry back behind his winger in case he needed to help his teammate to not be shoved in goals after catching. 2. Hurry back in case his winger dropped it. Be ready to dive on any loose ball. 3. Look up and do...

Run around in slow motion...not sure what to do....that is basically exactly how Benji played. The difference is he had freakish ability to turn some of those dead plays into tries (some also ended up in row 3) He has been doing a lot of "showing" at training, but that is not coaching. There...

The reality is Brooks was gone mentally last season...and gone from the club. It is almost unbelievable that Sheens said "not so fast...I saw something in 2017 that I think I can reignite in Luke'.

In that case...your man to blame is Marshall. He is the attacking 'coach' who has overseen the worst good zone attack in the modern NRL. He was never a smart player / instinct was his strength. The odds of him succeeding as a coach are very long IMO. And I really, really, hope I am wrong...

Reality = Sheens KNOWS he cannot be sacked. The whole 5 year / Benji takes over thing relies on Sheens. He could go 0 and 20 and keep his job. Pascoe is responsible for allowing that to happen...

Those were for 2024. What else? Get a steady / solid half for 2023. Dolphins took the kid from Penrith when he lived 30 mins away from us. EVERY team in the comp has at least one decent half. Sharks have four. He should have identified it as a priority for 2023. Even with Hastings we would...

2021.

It has been well over a year since he won with the 7 jersey. Last time was 2021.

The halves are atrocious and Sheens is to blame. Had all off season plus final 3 months of last season to find a game manager. Was arrogant enough to think he could change Brooks.

Sadly, true. When we were ahead he had three sets to ice it...each time he was clueless. Literally, clueless. Api had to basically take over. We are playing footy with a 7 with NO IQ at all. None. He can run in open play, and that is it. 18 months since he had a win as a 7. 18....think...
