If you thought Brooks was fully fit, or Api , it is you who are not paying attention. Try seeing positives for a change !

2025- That's what Sheens said is a realistic target, for our side. The side concentrated on the forwards,and they played well, taking into account Api, with injury and little training time. The same with Brooks who hasn't been able to train for months. The backs are a weakness, and aside from...

Far to sensible, one game and the knives come out, and the brains recede !

Just so much hate for one player, the other 16 must have been brilliant, i just missed seeing them.

From all reports, both Api and Brooks had little pre- season training owing to calf strains. Both did little running. It was obvious that they were well short on fitness. Jake can handle the hooking job, and Wakhem the 7 , and let the two of them get fully fit. Stains to FB, Laurie on the...

Brooks and Api were far from fit, and had very little pre-season. Let's give them some time, calf injuries have limited their training with the side. We lack penetration, speed and ability in the backs , that is our biggest problem. This was our first game, many expected too much.

I think he could be anything, he has improved his game, is young ; fast and tough, one of the first players picked in my eyes. He was our best player in the trials, and with more game time will be a star.

The dolphins had strike players all over the field. The Tigers lack creativity and speed. Simkins needs to play longer minutes to allow Api to get some fitness, both him and Brooks looked unfit. Early days yet , but some strike players needed in the backs.

Just hammer Fafita, and we can win.

I mentioned this scenario 2 days ago, and got shot down by idiots.

If injured , who plays half ? Wakeham or Reilley, or Simkin ?

Why have a salary cap ? If you have third party deals, doesn't that make a mockery of the cap ? It is obviously a big money earner, but the NRL has to do more to balance the payments. This is rorting, Melbourne got penalised for far less.

As one door closes , another door opens.

Well flat foot Freddie hasn;t exactly been a good origin coach, Hasler would have got far better results. Rumour is Bellamy might ge next cab up! Anyone but Freddie.

Watched NRL 360. and saw the panel mentioning Easts 3.6 mil over the salary cap,wit third party deals. Anasta as a player manager,ex player and with close ties to Nick looked extremely uncomfortable. The whole purpose of the salary cap, was to keep the competition fair. That ultra rich clubs...

And Fafita !

That's a simple post,managing the roster and cap, is the first priority. Every second post is stupid, buy Teddy back, buy Manu, buy every top line player in the game ! I would hate to make those calls. We need to know who to keep, and who to let go, and this will take time. This year will...

Good friend and ex-cop said the Bondi boys were fond of the white powder, and barefoot in the park was common.

Simpkins , the Tigers Ben Hunt,LOL.

In the event of injury to the halves i said, and a long shot. Completely reasonable, who would you play if AD or Brooks gets injured ? To me the much improved Simkin to hooker, and Api to halves, or Simpkin to the halves and Api as hooker. Depending on form at the time in the event that a...
