Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Damn so same as the halves it's been a bloody problem with us for a few years, we only play one half of football. Once the game seems to be gone and it's like there's nothing left to lose so the hesitation disappears

put simkin in 7 for first half then return to normal in 2nd half

1 positive is all our young players are playing well witch is what you would hope for at a development club

We had 3 times the amount of ball on Parras tryline as they had on ours in the first half, our halves created nothing, Moses created 3 tries, ended up with 4 try assists

Was listening on abc grandstand was frustrating to hear, just seemed they just wanted to palm the pill off to someone else to sort out, no leadership

Tale of two halves, would prob work

Simpkin to start... Api to half, Smith to 14

Pretty sure we need to wait till round 10 for Smith to have a run.

How was Staines at fullback apart from the mistake the commentators said he played well, did he look dangerous in attack?

Staines was arguably our best player

 

[Lukic]

Staines has the potential to be electric in attack but he really needs to improve his positioning and organisation of the defensive line. That will come with time though and I'm happy to live with the bad provided he can continue to progress into a weapon offensively.

reckon Aiden Sezer will be called upon to partner brooks in the halves this year and probably signs on 23,24 and x 25

said a few weeks ago Brooks gets a 2 year extension to be announced bye week, see how that goes I guess especially now AD injured and likely misses half of 2024

 

[LindyLou]

Why don’t we consider bringing in some PNG players as they are tough with plenty of heart.

Everyone is saying he's not ready, still reckon Sheens will put him in though

Honestly why would he want to stay? He is the weekly whipping boy. Get paid down the south of France and go travelling for a while. Much better idea...

Why release Maumalo with no replacement?

Anyone who watched the KOE game yesterday and thinks we need Smith, Laurie and Wakeham in the halves for a long stretch is on hard drugs. All three are useless, on a side note Jake Arthur went well yesterday and should be in first grade, could easily partner with Brooks.

Jake Arthur played well? He looked pedestrian. The Eels had 45 sets on our line and only managed 2 tries. Lumelume was the only one who looked like breaking the line - not that I'm advocating signing him.

I understand the dislike for Laurie but he did ok when he started playing in the line in the 2nd half.

Tupou Is a younger and will be better copy of Ken

Watched the NSW cup yesterday was impressed with our number 3 , saukuru , big strong and fast he was the only player who looked like he could crack the line , any one know much about him .
Now that we have lost 2 players , how long before the club gets of there arse and signs some players , if this was any other club it would be done inside a week

Dasilva to 14

Agree , but to become a good fullback he needs to be left there for the season
