A player can have a lot of mongrel and be feared by the opposition on the field without having to resort to bashing his partner or other people off the field, 4 times For God's sake - 4 times!!! Why is this cretin still even playing?
On topic, Ofahengaue and Boyle would be good additions.

Would have taken Lodge back though IMO..
Turned his life around with rehab
On 800 a week at the Broncos or about 40k a year.
A contender for Qld Cup player of the year.
Most likely was going to be registered with the NRL next year.
Shame he has given the game away

8\. Matulino
9\. Liddle
10\. Packer
11\. McQueen

We need props and locks that chew up the metres look at the top sides.
Storm: Bromwich, McLean, NAS, Glasby, Myles
Sharks: Fifita, Gallen, Prior, Taga.
Cowboys: Scott, Taumololo, Hess, Bolton.
Manly: Tapau, Lawrence, Trboevic, Adin-Fonua, Lussick.
Roosters: JWH, Napa, Evans, Liu, Tetevano.
Tigers: Matulino, Packer, Twal, Sue.
ET is a gun but he doesn't bend the line. I think we need another prop and big lock forward that can play in the middle and outwide. I think ET will be great with a big 4 prop rotation and a big backrower outwide.
We also can't play 2 hookers with Lawrence, ET in the forwards.

That's what really connects all the good teams of recent years: they're stuffed with wife beaters. I can't believe the Tigers have taken so long to realise that what they've been missing on the park is players who go in for a bit of spousal abuse. I mean, Tetevano, Auva'a and Robert Lui might be a bit expensive nowadays what with all the premierships they've won but hopefully our recruitment department can find some wife beaters in lower grades that the Storm and Roosters haven't spotted yet. Glory awaits!

Aloiai and Eisenhuth all fit into our middle players as well. I like the Saints pack now. They have mobile fast middle forwards that get quick play the balls. I think ET, McQueen and Lawrence might get the job done on the edges but they aren't really game breakers.
I think our pack looks decent now. I think we should focus on trying to get rep level quality players that have an impact like Crichton or Taupau.

And yet for all their forward talent Saints are still struggling! Same as Canberra - a great forward pack on paper doesn't always guarantee a consistent winning team.

Passi, Boyle, Tetavano and Ofahengaue all play regular first grade.
I agree that we need at least one other quality front rower and second rower, (still don't have a match winning winger or dummy half either IMO). Get the impression we won't get Boyle however. Ofahengaue will stay at Broncs as well. Not sure where that leaves us.
I think there are still a few decent candidates off contract but in the end we are going to need the guys we have already to enforce a complete turnaround in culture and a rebirth of a winning spirit or it won't matter who we buy.

Don't worry boys. I think you will find a few clubs are over the cap once the amount gets released for next year. Then it's nom nom time. That's us just buying all these players we never thought we could. Nom nom nom

And another one bites the dust! No one decent left now so I guess the pack we have signed for next season will be it :frowning:
