Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Newcastle were happy to see the back of him when we signed him and they were not going well at the time. Tells you a bit
Yea, (assuming Toa). Look as a Fringe Grader he improved when he was here.

He has reached his potential and at best is a depth Center (which we actually need as Taylan could need time off).

Patrick Herbert is cheaper and can offer the same kind of depth.


All said, not begrudging Toa. He broke bones for our club, wish him well.
 
We beat good teams like the Warriors, Cowboys and the Knights quite comfortably with our best backline …even missing Luai at least one of those ..

The problem arises when we have a couple out and the backups are typically exposed
I said during the Knights game that Makasinis defence would cost us the game. Inevitably it did by missing a tackle on Young in his in goal that led to him handing it off to Best to finish it off.

Maka has cost us 2 critical games now where we may be looking at 9 wins 6 losses or 8 wins 7 losses which puts a different complexion on the season.

Through injury, we have suffered this year which is a shame, because overall, I think we are good enough to be top 6 with our best team on the park.

Btw - not panning Maka as a player. Just pointing out he's nowhere near ready for the responsibility of being a starting centre at NRL level. Too young. Too raw. Needs work.
