IMO, Mason needs a shift away from FB, would be much more comfortable with him starting for us as a centre or backup half, but he was just shocking under the high ball. Hopefully it was just a nerves thing but he’s not a NRL fullback, tough as nails tho so think would be a decent centre

I recall Dylan Edwards dropping plenty of high balls early in his career. What about the bomb Pap dropped on Friday night that led to a try? Even the best I the game drop them...

They need to make some big calls on this guy.
He isn't a big game player and his head isn't in the game.

Positional change needed ASAP.

With Kennedy at 1 and Aktinson being the likely 6 and Trindall at 7... I think the sharks have got themselves an overpriced centre.

He'll make a great centre though.

I think they should play him at 6. I don't think he has the pace or defensive ability to be a centre.

He's an interesting case; he won the Dally M a couple of years ago (and I consider a Dally M winner to be in the $1M class), so I personally wouldn't say they paid overs. You'd expect him to continue that form, but he just goes missing in games to the point you forget he's even out there.

I really think it's a confidence thing. He needs the Shark Whisperer....
 
Just noticed that fox and the nrl , are not showing the NSW CUP live on Sunday , but they are doing the NRLW games , I don’t mind the females playing but this just throwing the blokes out the window is wrong , we watched must games early in the season , it’s good to watch players coming through the grades , but they just get

If it's a nerves thing under the high ball he simply shouldn't be under it.

Part of playing fullback is keeping your eye on the ball knowing that as soon as you catch it you're going to take a big hit.

Luai is our only chance.
Do you wanna play alongside a winner and the current NSW half to learn your trade? Then sign here. He is our only attraction. Hopefully Gal signs a long term contract before November.

He’s probably more likely to want to play at a club who are in a position to challenge for a premiership
 
With all our concern about the release of Onitoni Large, I thought I'd have a crack at producing a pathways depth chart for each position. See thread ...

Interesting he is their lock? We usually have him as a Prop. But we do tend to play lightweight workers out of position----props? Not sure of our thinking in this regard in their development? Kohan was always a lock and played lock for Pat's Fairfield (before moving to Westfields) and Cabra.
