Santi

Two very ordinary games in a row. He's not up to it, offers very little.

Lovett a much better option moving forward, and I would have Sitaleki ahead of him too.
 
Stint is reggies me thinks…but I think he has upside..wouldn't be writing him off yet
 
Have to agree hybrid.
He is a busy player and tries hard but seems a little bit out of his depth.
Hope he proves me wrong - I thought Sue should have been flicked after the first game.
 
Overreaction. Im prepared to be patient to see where these young guys go. Sirro and Sue are showing tte benefits of patience.

Once Lodge and Woods are back the pressure will be on Santi. Just cant see him holding out some of these other guys.

He looks erratic and is struggling with the step up at the moment. Compare it to someone like Lovett who with less opportunities instantly looks composed and up to the level.

Few forumites will be taking down their Santi posters if they havent already.
 
I think he has potential but at the moment I would take Lovett ahead of him and Sitaleki adds more impact off the bench too.

You don't think Lovett and Sitaleki should be ahead of him?

Definitely not Sitaleki. Too many glaring misses detract from whatever x-factor he has in attack.

Im not as impressed by Lovett as others are. I thought he failed to protect Moses a lot last night and has little impact in attack.

I will stick with Santi - its a learning curve for him as well.
Just needs a few more games to build up the confidence,

Lovett is no better at this stage (could be good though).
Sitaleki ( a heap of problems in one body) - I would have let him go - not promoted him.

Santi's missed tackle laat night was very poor, and he just lumbers in attack with very little impact.

He has been good in patches this year and does a lot of dirty work. It was a bad miss last night but Sita is a good for at least 1 or 2 of them a game. 1 from 4 games is a much better strike rate.

Would like to see Akuola get another chance.

Me too.

If someone would have said at the start of the season that Akauola wont be sighted in first grade i would have found that very hard to believe.

Starting to think that Taylor has taken him on as a special project. This time in reserve grade is all about what JT is trying to teach him. If and when he learns im sure he will be one very serious player when he comes back into the team.
 
These players that are learning - are going to learn in the NRL.

They are too good for NSW Cup and will learn nothing.

In my opinion if you are going to drop them back to learn in the NSW Cup you may as well cut and get rid of them. That would be just another way of crucifying them.
