Question: Do the local PNG players (if any get selected?) get the Tax-Free dollars also?

Other clubs never have problems putting players in the shop window; Contracts or not for early release. Bula would be a great fullback for PNG.

Both slow after 30 min. We need the early speed for 80 min.

Our edge backrowers are too slow. More suited to middles. Sukkar and Roberts types are slow to slide wide after fatigue sets in and cover the inside backs We need to sacrifice some size for 80 min. goers with some speed.

Just bad coaching.

I can understand they wanted to see how Brooks went as fullback in Flegg before any contract offers; BUT to play Ron Massey with a team of strangers is----just to get run metres into his legs? Not form.

Agree we need him as our centre---but he played fullback this weekend and Bula not exactly setting the world on fire. Bula to wing . Which means we still need another centre. Saukuru what's happening?

Yeah, Nahh, lets give him another year to develop. How many years of development has he had now?

What exactly does "shutdown" mean? Injury I am assuming. Hope it's for a couple of months so Benji can trial some alternatives. Otherwise Benji sticks with the same old I suspect.

They have a big catchment area, just like us------------But?

If only Benji would try him at fullback over the off season. Bula to wing --- better than Tavana for bombs and D.

Hope he does some sprint training. Haven't seen any speed this season.

Getting close to the mark. Benji knows best.

Benji the only handbrake on any new assistants. My assumption is; when advice is given but not headed over time it becomes a lost cause. Same with coaching and selections. Players know when it's wrong so play without spirit. That's why it will be hard to attract any quality---without paying well...

Is it our attacking coach or Benji? Surely a few words like "Decoy Only" in the red zone would help.

All the more reason we won't see him here.

Is Saukuru eligible for NRL? (Going to Eels maybe - well Luai is also but he is still picked.) If Saukuru is eligible, move Makasini back to KOE and promote Saukuru. Makasini has been a flop at centre, attack and defence. Experiment is over for whatever reason why it failed. We need to change...

Thanks, BWG for your assessment. I always look forward to them. Our trouble is, knocking on the door is not enough. NO ONE opens the door. They will probably sign a couple of average players and cross their fingers. They fell over backwards for Makasini who I was in favour of but mostly on his...

Possibly, but if Benji's NRL selections, bench selections and management continue to remain baffling -- It could also be interpreted that Benji just isn't taking any advice very seriously. [or poor advice or little advice]. Player game minutes and rotations seem poor. To my assistants--Thank...

Should go even better than last week with Hope and Murray back
