A rangy 2nd rower is not a lock though. We haven't had a proper lock in years

We looked better in those games where Douehi played 7. Latu is an ideal 14 covering the halves, hooker and lock late in games. Radley is a great lock. Will be that link man

Apart from Douehi not being proven defensively at lock and has played 2 games there in his career

He's a very good back rower. He was just at a team who send everything in attack left for Ponga. When he actually gets ball he has a wicked offload and defensively rarely misses. And despite Newcastle going left, still went looking for work and averaged over 100m per game

If we have a proper lock we don't need another prop realistically coz Twal and Sione come into the prop rotation with Terrell, Pole, Hunt and Seyfarth

Absolutely. He instantly becomes our starting Lock and all of a sudden our Prop rotation and depth is stronger as Twal etc aren't being put there

Mason is the worst player I've seen play NRL. He's the Scott Muller of Rugby League

Sexton's first half has already made Gus look like a fool

Davey Moale I would take

Have we got Logan Deininger locked down?

I'd have him in the centres instead of Toa and give him plenty of early ball

Shame Mason can't catch, pass or tackle though

Isaac didn't negotiate this contract. It's been reported that if Bula or us take up that last year option then Moses gets nothing out of it. It's in Isaac's best interest for Bula not to have the option taken up

Not if he plays 13 and 9 over say 50-60 mins a week

He can't/won't defend. Never has

Transition Hemasi to the right. With all his rugby he would be used to playing both sides of the field in attack anyway

But even his good games are only good in attack. He's an arm grabber. That's why Newcastle never rated him

Bye Bye Starford. Rugby Centres play both sides of the field depending on where the ruck is. Hopefully Masi can transition to Right centre in the off season

I think it's lack of depth in those games off the bench meaning the like of Terrell was gassed. Mason, Sukkar and To'a are miles from NRL players and when all on the field cause us to capitulate

We're a right centre away from our backs being NRL class. To'a is a massive liability. He was awful tonight. His defence is worse than Douehi's ever was
