Averillo is really good and has an exceptional turn of pace. Id say the Dolphins are keen to keep him but Bostock and Farnworth is lose to the best CTW pairing in the comp. He will give us an attacking threat on both sides. While I am dead keen on the signing, I really hope we are trying to...

Maddens kicking power is well below average NRL HAlf. Many of us said this even when he was on a roll.

His defence was good. Definitely not fit...his runs in attack lack any power or strength in contact. Credit to a couple of big try savers....definitely saved the game.

Desperately need depth in: - 2nd row - front row - centre - a decent hooker/fullback back up .... unless haywood/attard etc are anywhere near close No more halves and no more wingers. Way too much of our cap tied up here.

Have not had any great structure in attack or defence all year. We did one thing well to star the year and that was control possession. Now that we are not doing that, the two above areas are putrid.

Yes we have injuries, but our toll is not disasterous. Most sides could cover this to an extent, we fall apart. We have the worst depth in the NRL, including Saints.

Not worth the money and never was. A $600k player we paid $1.2mill . Unfortunately by doing that, we have taken away depth in other positions, which you can see in a game like today.

What he is doing. I don't expect a roster to have him in the Top 30 though or any side in the NRL to pick a player of this standard. Shows where we are at after a lot of uneducated hype early season.

A few things: 1) We have the worst depth in the NRL. It is so bad. Other teams have as many injuries as us. 2) Our defence is horrid. It has been weak all year, including when we were winning. The difference in those games is we held 60-65% of possession (EG - Knights, Cows, Parra, Brisbane)...

Benji re-signed him for years after a good 20 mins last year vs the cows

I was never gutted about losing Galvin as I always felt he was overhyped. I also think we cover Luai easy so I am not fussed.... However, I would be really concerned with losing Bula. While he is not the developed package, he is so critical to our attack. He is by far our biggest threat and if...

I dont think you can run a bench with Latu and Madden. They both cover the same spot. Truth be said, as a bench player, Latu probably offers a bit more as hes a bit more dynamic, however it would be hard to drop Jock all together. Really tough call around.

We lost because we have absolutely no structure in attack. We can not score from inside the red zone. It was painful to watch tonight. But it was the same vs Parra where we had 30 sets of six in their end and couldnt score, Parra went down the other end and scored quickly etc.

We have improved our attack in the middle of the field definitely, but our attack inside the opposition 20 would be close to the worst in the comp. We do not look like scoring at all. Why is it all in slow motion? Why is there no players running lines? Why is KPP not running a hard unders line...

Just because you play as a team doesn't mean you should have lots of players there, otherwise Penrith would alway have half a team. Only May & Api for me to be considered. I would have Api behind Brailey as well if I am being honest. Twal playing well, but there are a few forwards in front of...

Good game today. More importantly, he is a natural centre. He runs lines and tries to set up his man, which is far more than Maka, Turuva, Skelton or any other option we have. Without any other real options, he should stay in the team unless Toa forces him out.

Absolutely, but I think more so, we have no centres, so the cohesion is naturally horrible as centre is so specialist. You saw the difference in Makasini in the trials when May could open up the field for him and give him space. Someone like Tavana I think will shine if we can see him in space...

Maybe we are on par or better with the forwards but our outside backs are on struggle street. They are trying, but absolutely no flow or cohesion there at all. We are not "walking over" or "doing it easy" against anyone.

This is my issue with it all though. We generally have to pay above market for external players. We all know that. So say we deem Bula at 600k and we pay 800k or whatever, would it be any different if we went elsewhere. Say we targeted a 600k fullback from another club, we would probably...

Luai straight back in. Our attack is still struggling in my opinion. We are great off 2nd phase play due to offloads, but we are regularly camped in the opposition 20m zone for 3-4 sets in a row and not even firing a shot at the moment. Truthfully, the game should have been put to bed with...
