ParraHopgood can’t crack Penrith’s top 17 with most of their team out. Some here thought he should replace Joffa at lock.

We’re now after his second cousin, HopbadHopgood can’t crack Penrith’s top 17 with most of their team out. Some here thought he should replace Joffa at lock.
Part of a fullback's job is marshalling the defence. Seeing that Brooks is a mute, he's not going to be able to play fullbackGood comeback.
Laurie hasn't been good this year. I reckon Brooks is worth a shot there. What does Laurie do better than Brooks at this point in their careers ?
I'm not trying to hack Laurie either. He was good last week and I like the kid.
He played great against Parra. His chase and hit and drive back of Gutho was inspired.I in
Yeah his first big effort play and wasn’t he just chuffed about it. Needs to do more and I reckon it’s in him.
Farnworth requested when he extended at the Broncos that he'd be given next pre season training at Fullback to be given a crack there. That is why people are discussing him as a fullback option. Same as Sualli, that kid ain't spending his whole career as a wingerWhy do people go on about signing good players and then playing them in another position to come here? Farnworth to FB? The guy is a centre and has been a gun there. Why would you play him out of position? Laurie to 5/8? The guy is a fullback.

Fullbacks get twice the coin. Cobbo will also command fullback $Farnworth requested when he extended at the Broncos that he'd be given next pre season training at Fullback to be given a crack there.

Campbell , while a good runner with ball in hand has little to no skills in defense & positional play. This appears to be a common trend with newage "fullbacks". Im sure the coaches rely on no one breaking the front line cos any one who does will score.I'm out on Sloan, He has a way to go - But he's already doing things Laurie cant.
I'd invest our future in Campbell over Laurie...
And I do watch their games.... I watch all the games.
Anything but a fullback. He's a centre who could go to lock in.a few years.EXACTLY!! Burton, Manu, Crichton....
There's Fullbacks out there - Not all of them wear 1....
Burton has everything a Fullback needs, And he's young...
He would be at the least an upgrade - And could be the next anything at Fullback!!
I would love to see Burton and Doueihi in the halves together, then Transition them both in one position closer and have them as left / right side backrowers.Anything but a fullback. He's a centre who could go to lock in.a few years.
Other team forums must be quiet 😂😂Where are our UPDATE LEGENDS ?
Don’t know what you’re laughing about.Other team forums must be quiet 😂😂
As soon as Sualli starts out performing tedesco they’ll tell tedesco he isn’t wanted, that’s when he will want to come back to us when his career is near its endFarnworth requested when he extended at the Broncos that he'd be given next pre season training at Fullback to be given a crack there.

we should recruit ,the old Bullfrog Moore style,target 3players in a team we need,and push 1 our way,whilst bumping up their prices,,Canberra would be a good target,IF they are having a clean out as suggested.Penrith discards,mate against mate
Pretty much. We. Ain't that far away from the 7-10 spot on the ladder to be honest. Add API, Pap and the above and we will be there. Just need to sought out defence and go forward though because won't matter at all if we can't get to the red zone.1 Quality Prop
1 Quality Centre
1 Quality Backrower
we would be solid for next couple years and would give time for our pathways to really kick in ,
If there is any likelihood of Madge being moved on this year, we absolutely shouldn't sign anyone. The last thing we need is a new coach trying to move 4 or 5 contracted players on.With the talk over Madges future I cannot see us signing anybody now. This is a disruption to the process and nobody is going to sign when they don't know whom will be the coach for next year.
I am with you, I want Madge to stay. I am sick and tired of the blame being put on the coach. We have an unbalanced roster that looks like a reserve grade side because nobody of any stature wants to come here with a continual circus over the years of swapping coaches which has made us look like a basket case.If there is any likelihood of Madge being moved on this year, we absolutely shouldn't sign anyone.

I don't agree with sacking Madge but if we are, we need as much space as possible and we only have about 3 spots left for next year unless other players leave.
However, our coach had enough time to choose/build his own team, so he must be held responsible as well..I am with you, I want Madge to stay. I am sick and tired of the blame being put on the coach.
