Our Attack

Looking at our team and comparing it to others we seem to be the most consistently clunky team, you know poor passes, high passes, guys standing still no bodies in motion, no support .

All stems from not being deep enough. Thing is it has predated Madge so it has been a long term issue.

What is this? Is it a lack of fitness or a lack of trust in our defense so the side is almost in a defensive line while in possession. Is it something else.

Because I feel it's where most of our issues stem, we don't burn opposition teams out enough with the ball.

And what's the fix?

I reckon we have created six or seven big chances this year and our centres and wingers aren’t fast or good enough to finish the plays off. Our wingers also don’t challenge for attacking kicks. God knows why. Laurie is not bobbing up in support either. Others teams also get tries out of their back row but ours are bog average.
 
Our attack has been the most predictable for years.

Its all so premeditated. No one thinks off the cuff, and no one... absolutely no one, runs in support.

Laurie should be on someone like Luch's hip all day.
 
Volkman (Roosters) replaces Brooks.
Brooks released to any appropriate suiter, with least impact to our cap.

CNK (Raiders) - maybe in a Brooks swap, whatever it takes. They want Savage for #1 and we want a capable fullback. Which leads to Laurie - can play out his deal in NSW cup or seek a release and take up a deal elsewhere with no impact to our cap.

Nofo- he is showing signs of improvement this season and his contract is shocking, no ones taking it... WE are stuck with him but he is only a small issue... the real issue are the centres.

Recruit some centres 🤪😝
Who woulda thought? Not much available.
Herbie Farnworth the pick of the lot - name your price chief. Have another crack at the raiders options as they seem to be stacked - Seb Kris, strong off season focusing on defence for him and there's always decent centres coming through Q cup somewhere, start exploring.

Tamou - Going
Luciano- Going
Kelma - going
Offa - happy to see him go
Mikaele - happy to see him go

Replaced by

Pele (Sharks) rumoured
Papali (Eels) Confirmed
Nikora (Sharks) rumoured
Fainu (Manly) confirmed
Thompson (dogs) rumoured

O'Kane, Guyan, Camroux, Dillon, Peni, Tupou and Pole invested in heavily as first grade prospects.

The great Volkman will lead us to the promised land #tenyearplan
 
Until we get a first grade 9 in the squad we are not doing anything. Api, Hastings, Douihei as the 9,7,6 next year will be a good spine. Laurie has talent hopefully this year he learns the position and improves.
 
Liddle, currently our best hooker has the worst passing game ever.

Spine is painfully weak.

Laurie is the softest guy I've seen since Moltzen.

Brooks doesn't want to be there and had a weird spell on some people that leads them to believe he is good but he's a low (football) IQ dud.
 
i honestly had to laugh when during the presser Brooks said how the Titans were a great attacking team, do these guys even watch NRL games?

What the same team who’s scored one flukey try in the last three halves they’ve played?
