You do realise Harper is better than our centres, right? Defensively he's better than Naden, Talau, Kepaoa and Toa. Attacking wise he's erratic but better than our boys bar maybe Naden.

Hey, here is a thought for the forum.

Lets hire a Centre and a Winger that actually defend TOGETHER!

You know, players who know each other, can trust each other, know when they need to come in and how far out they need to stand AND NOT CREATE 2-1 OVERLAPS in our defence because everyone has moved in.

Literally that trial game showed we had done nothing on defensive structures. Our entire wing was meters in from the winger they were marking.

Right, then it’s more serious eh.
Is it same Brooks injury from last year ?
We are going to hit round one, pretty underdone with our no 1 half not having had a run.
Not good !!!!

Is it the same injury the reporters were talking about when it was leaked by Diane Laurie and the tigers said it was fake news?

Following Moses last meeting with the tigers, I assumed the fact that the pom didn't pop in in the days that followed to say we had been rejected was an indication that he is going to join us.

Who incidentally scored a double against us and was close to scoring a 3rd, but I agree, that does not mean he's all that good.

Agreed re B Turbo. He is the equivalent of buying a Toyota Lexcen when you want a Holden Commodore. Pathetic.

So simple, and only to be expected. The club bought 5 new players, and tried for 6. They have to control the cap space and money. Class players by the way. This is the coaching staffs first year, and we are yet to play a game. 1st gde has obviously been the priority at this stage,and the rest will come. To manage pathways, the cup side, recruitment, training and the multitude of things required to run the club would not be easy. The whole coaching side has only been together for a few months. Give them 6 mths at least, and then you can bag them if they deserve it

Great post Sleeve. What we're witnessing is the foundation of the new team over the next 2 years. This was explained previously by the club. The club has done well for recruitment this year and I would imagine it will continue next season. There is only so much that can be achieved especially when required to move a significant portion of the roster on.

Bagging the coach solves nothing- we have done that for years. The reality is that if the squad is not good enough no matter who the coach is we will be exposed against better squads. Our club was embarrassed last week because the team we fielded was completely out of their depth - even as depth players. That is a major concern. Canterbury Manly Warriors Dolphins all have new coaching teams and all with weakened squads looked miles ahead of us - let alone the likes of the stronger clubs.
We need a good performance this week to give the fans something to be hopeful about.

Maybe Seyfarth has been killing it in the pre season and gets a reward.

He had a cracker of a game in a game where no one looked good. Never a fan of seyfarth, but when he's on his day he is the best forward out there

Brooks has not been seen since he done his calf , now it’s been months since he done it , so I am thinking he has re done it a few times since , this could be a huge problem for us , since we don’t Half much depth

Wonder if sheens will be keeping a eye on Welsby this weekend

Seriously, who bags out someone who isn't here to reply?

Even if he doesn't post here anymore, there's nothing gained in attacking him.

also, off topic! *waves flag*

But only 1 can kick 40/20s.

and only one has a Dally M Halfback of the year award

Don’t be shocked if Wakeman goes ok this game , if our forwards can match the raiders which I think we can this could give wakeman and Simpkins a bit of time and space , I think he will go ok , just a feeling I got , I would not right any player off just yet as poor , give them a few games

Shakes head n disbelief .. has Sayfarth have naked photos of the coach or something .. ?? how does he keep getting picked .. ?? Just watch him in this game this sunday .. watch him get hit and pushed back time after time, hit after hit .. he'll give a stupid penalty or 2 away during the game.
He is so ineffective .. i dont give two rats about his personal circumstances .. this is professional sport .. if you cant add anything to the team .. move on.

There was a reference to mods. And I got booted off for having a point of view - seek posts from Donald Trump.
