What do we need?

Someone like BBQing Maloney. Sizzling.
Wish we had him.
Don"t believe Moses and Brooks will work. Sorry.
Need a decent captain to.
 
We all want a kicker who kicks 80% or better and I was wondering do we score a lot more of our tries in the corners and that's why our kicking percentage is low?

Tried to find stats couldn't find anything.
 
We need another Laurie Nichols so that when the Raiders are cooking us and the boys cave in Laurie's antics may just jolt them out of it. But 20,000 yelling fans on the Hill did not seem to help so I give up.
 
We need a 2,3,4, possibly a 7 , 11 ,12 and 13 (depending on ET )and 2 better impact bench players

Over half our squad isn't NRL standard or are in the bottom 4 in their position ranked against other sides in the comp

Seeing that clubs like Manly ,Parra ,Souths , Roosters and possibly the Warriors will improve massively in 2017 our roster needs massive change still

Apart from Liddle ,Paseka and Felise nothing else is coming through in the short term from NYC /NSW Cup

I would add:
Tatola, Sakobalave - # 8
Marsters, McCormack, Giles, Stone - # 11/12/13
Roberts, Papenhuyzen - # 1,6, 7
Karwhin - # 2, 11, 12
Marshall-King - # 9, 6/7
:sign:

I'm not sure if many of these players are in the plans short term for the club or whether they are ready to make the step up in 2017

You weren't there, it was a crap crowd that did very little cheering.

I well know but was using just a little poetic license for dramatic effect. Maybe it was because there was little to cheer about - egg or chicken. No Benji or Robbie to yell out for to save them.

Yep, it was a courisly subdued crowed however, we never had a chance to get into the game.
 
Right now we need a tall winger, all the top teams have a tall winger, it just adds another dimension to the attack (e.g. storm- vuni, cowboys- feldt, raiders- rapana etc.)
ideally obed kharwin hes 190cm we havent had a tall winger since richards, and tuqiri

No we didn't - he signed with Melbourne as talks were in their infancy. Then he didn't want to go.

If you just want a tall winger - grab a giraffe. I prefer someone that can at least play a decent game of football. JAC was not that guy.

Yep your right, actually i vaugely remember pascoe was on holidays and had asked that they wait and they didn't or something like that.

I think wingers do need to have some height about them especially to combat the bombs in defence and put pressure on the catcher in attack given that you almost automatically get penalised for tackling the player if you are not taller or don't leap higher then the defending player. but certainly must have skill.

A giraffe would be good, it would bring kids back to the game. we can have bring a carrot to feed the giraffe day and he is already almost decked out in our colours.

And neither is Rankin but the coach kept picking him :crazy
 
JAC is not that tall 184 cm, Nofoaluma is 180, but we let go much better players Koroibete (180cm/93kg) and Naiyaravoro (194 cm/124) at the same time for a good measure kg :frowning:

Happy Tiger is never happy!!

Nothing coming through? Just missed out on playing in the Grand Final in both reserve grade and under 20's.

A couple of points away from the top eight in first grade.

I think you must have been watching Newcastle most weeks not the Weststigers.

:crazy

Happy, a word of advice. Get your hand off it and/or stop smoking the funny cigarettes.

:crazy

I'm crazy Col , I know

We are a long from being premiership material Col

Top 8 isn't much in this day and age and we haven't been there for a long time

In fact I'd question how many other sides haven't made the Top 8 in the last 5 years ??

Your answer is there , our roster is still lacking and we are at least 3 quality players away from a being a true contender
