Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Sorry to hear that. I want to be wrong but I don’t rate this bloke at all.

We don't have many options


Sullivan? Playing for south's
Galvin? Well.....
AD? Needed in the centres.
Mapapalangi? Worth a shot but isn't top 30.
Falls? Personally think he's a dud.
Playing a hooker in the halves? Sure
Heath Mason? Realistic

At least it shows Benji has a backbone by not picking the wonder kid.

If you mean Galvin, there’s no way on earth he can be chosen in any grade for us.

No way. But given how weak our club has been at times, you wouldn’t put it past them.

Keen to see Mason in another position other than fullback. He’s a goer, but just horrendous under the high ball.

I do as well but fair dinkum Benji has rocks in his head if this happens. The kid has played what maybe 2-3 games in reggies at 5/8 if that and hasn’t been put into a stable position since making the jump up from juniors.

It really highlights how bad our depth in the club is but even worse how we let players go at the detriment of our overall sqaud.

If he’s picked, it’s obvious he’s only keeping the jersey warm till Latu is fit. You know what Doueihi is going to bring to the table. Which isn’t necessarily bad, but why not just give Mason a week or two to see what he can offer. Could find his niche. He is a good ball runner.

Happy to see Mason get a chance.
Naden was the only other option.

Chapters closed on Naden in my eyes.
Happily never see him take the field again.

Mason is the man for the job, currently.

Like it or not Mason is our best option... API is a hooker and we need him at 9, Douhei just kills our attacking flows,. Mason is a ball runner... that's all he needs to do apart from defend well

I think they’ll probably go for a safer option. Api to half, Romey to 6 and TDS to hooker. We do lack depth.

Well if blind Freddy can see it and I can see it, and most on WTF can as well.

WHY CANT THE NRL's INTEGRITY UNIT SEE SOMETHING'S NOT RIGHT HERE.

They probably can. But can they (or anyone else) prove something is not right?

 

[Nadz4483]

Wasn't Mason a half in his earlier years before being converted to a fullback??

 

[Tucker]

Very simple to cover tracks here. Literally requires a whistle blower and I doubt theres too many who are in the know.

NRL integrity unit is an oxymoron.

Thats what we thought last year until he got a resurgence of support over the pre season.
The bloke is not a first grader.

Pre season is wild.

Heath mason to be named five eighth for this week

Not surprised if douehis been at blues training all week...good luck to him if true

Wow!

Why not use Galvin this week if he’s still here , hopefully we win and towards the end we give him hospital balls every pass

He played 5/8 throughout his juniors. He was the reason Galvin played backrow for the Harold Matts team.

Sure, it’s only a junior level but he’s at least familiar with the position and has ball playing.

Also, what do you want the club to do?

Latu is injured, Bud is on loan, Bird is required to cover the forwards and Galvin is gone. You can only have so much depth.

What about getting Keith Eshman back .....maybe not ....oops
