Not really sure about Mansour, but we do have a problem on the left wing unless **Kepaoa suddenly learns how to catch**. Talau is too slow for the wing IMO.

As it stands now whoever is on that left wing will be heavily targeted and lack of experience on the left wing cost us both games against Souths this year IMO.

I’m sure they’ll be working with Kepaoa on that over the off season.

Interestingly enough he has had surgery on his eyes during the break.

Should have worn glasses.

It was an issue with the muscles around his eyes.

I was joking, glad he’s had it fixed - I like him as a player.

So do I, I would still have him under a lot of high balls over the preseason. Have Mbye join him as well.

If Mbye and AJ can get their handling together they’re both really good players. We all joke about Mbye but he’s a quality player.

Me too, when he came across mid season in 18 he was fantastic, probably our best player for the second half of the year. I think a mix of injury and lack of confidence destroyed him. If he can get his confidence back this off-season he’ll be great.

When he drops a bomb it seems to effect him and he will have a run of them. AD should practice his boms every training session with Mbye waiting under them.

It's a pity that some of the referees wouldn't get some eye surgery.

He’s got slick passing and a solid running game, he’s not slow. I remember in 2018 he set up some tries with some amazing passing with his passing, and he can do it on both sides.

Fingers crossed he can thrive there again!

Not a fan of him at fullback. Defensively he is woeful, gets caught out of position a lot and that forces him into mistakes.

Spot on Josh, he is the type of fullback I like to have. One that can join the backline and create opportunities.

There's no doubt he's potentially our best fullback. But what good is a fullback who loses his confidence and starts dropping everything?
