    Spreading the talent gene pool

    Here's a idea that will never get seriously studied by the NRL HQ. How about no NRL club can have more than 6 x international / SOO players in their 30 player squads.

    Are we missing an organiser?

    Reading through various threads it seems pretty obvious WT have plenty of runners and instinct players but bugger all organisers and those able to set up plays 2 or 3 steps before. What's the answer? Do we have anybody waiting in the wings? Gamble? I think he is more a runner than organiser but...

    Do we walk away from Musgrove signing?

    With the NRL refusing to clear his contract how long before WT have to walk away from this? We have until 30 June to sign 30th player and at the moment Musgrove is it. What if the court case continues beyond 30 June and NRL and the magnificently inconsistent Greenberg has to adjudge WT again? Do...

    Salary cap query

    Just wondering whether when clubs submit contracts to the NRL for registration they have the salary component noted. If so, how on earth can clubs officially go over the cap and how can they escape being scrutinized for fair salary for the players experience and skills?

    Scrums

    Have to say I really think it was a backward step giving in to the infringements in feeding the scrum. Just been watching some rugby and really miss the good scrum. When the hooker could actually get the ball against the feed was a great fillip for a team on the defensive, now it's all gone.

    Hooker position - Thread

    Have to say I think the position of hooker is letting us down. I dont think we can carry a less than 80 minute hooker in the 17\. Is Liddle the answer- dont know, but I'm feeling he has a long way to go. Do we have an alternate for this season? Do we need to get one for next season? The stop...

    Injury progress

    Before we consider players what is the state of injuries to Lolohea and Reynolds? Is Liddell still carrying injury? I'm hoping Lolohea and Reynolds are ready to go but I think Liddell is still not entirely right and maybe McIlwrick, although seemingly out of favour, should get a run as starting...

    Head protection

    I note Taylor is out due to HIA failure. Maybe it's time we instituted the leather headgear like that worn by Thurston? What do people think about it? The concussion rule is,having a big effect now during matches and afterwards, maybe the headgear might help ameliorate something than can have...

    Blake Ayshford?

    On one of these threads someone mentioned Blake Ayshford's name as a possible fill in for the loss of Taane Milne. He is a former WT player, certainly no world beater, but solid enough as a centre. He turns 30 this year, so has a couple of good years in him. I believe he is signed with Warriors...

    Defence can win it for us

    We cant match the Rorters for strike power but we can, if we pull our fingers out, get them with good defence. Have a couple of forwards get Tedesco every time the takes the ball up- make him hurt after 40 minutes- nothing illegal, just good tackles. Same with Cronk, shut him down with a good...
