SSM, have you seen Solomona this season? He'd be alot more use to us than Hall has been, even though i'm still hoping for a huge second season from him.

Full list of NRL ooc, I may go through it and pick out sentres / hbs later, can't be bothered now!! Some of those have already signed with other clubs or re-signed etc. ( Matai, Inu etc)

Fine in a winning team, where the other forwards are making yards, but he'd have been no good for us - can you imagine Worrincy trying to read those offloads?

yep been watching and quite impressed tbh
but his shoulders were too much of a liiabl=ility
popped out every time he made a tackle for us

dont mean to annoy you but the lists a bit outa date
most are signed up already

That list looks quite out of date to me. Lot's of players on there have resigned or changed clubs.

I've got a feeling that we may end up with Mat Rogers for a year.

hes not that bad
knocking on a bit but isnt that was said when we confirmed menzies ?

He'll give away too much possession in that case.

Considering the way he plays, I'd be surprised if Worrincy could read the teamsheet.

In your opinion. But what I have always said is that IF we got rid of Morrison "because he is injury prone", then that would be really dumb, as he was not. Whatever the reason, I said at the time it was a big mistake (and so did a lot of others), and it has turned out to be a big mistake. How we could have done with Morro this season.

Gotta back Potter on this one. I imagine Bever will be highly paid and if we can recruit two good players for the same and even the balance of the team then it needs to be done. Steve Mac left us severly under strength in a lot of areas and it neds to be fixed ASAP.

I think what it also shows is that Potter isn't afraid to make unpopular decisions to get what he wants. Something which IMO is a very good trait for a coach to have.

May not go down well with the fans, but if it works, in the long term, it will be the right choice.

I now wait to see who we've signed for next season because that Qouta Spot has to be taken up by a top player or I'll be incredibly P'ed off!

With the caveat that there are at least two categories of fans, those who will keep their counsel until they know the other side of the equation, and those who knee jerk regardless. For the latter, there IS no "long term". If we do not have success NOW, everyone is a failure.

Maybe we've snapped up Clint Greenshields?
Move him to FB and Kearney at 6?

But Hall has a 3 year contract I believe so can't really be added into the equation unless another club want him and he wants to go or either us or Hall terminate his contract.

I'm hoping he'll have a bigger impact last year. One thing I noticed when he was briefly on during the HKR game was that he was turning in the tackle to get the ball away but nobody was there in support. Whilst his fitness is definately in doubt (maybe he's carrying an injury?), I find it very hard to judge a player individually in a negative way this season as, lets be honest, the team haven't been playing well as a whole.

Unfortunately the quota rules mean that at some point hard decisions are going to have to be made on overseas players. If we have the chance to sign someone who will benefit the team and stregthen somewhere where we're weak and only have one quota spot coming available the coach has to decide whether to sign the new player or stick with what he's got and hope a suitable none quota player comes available. What if we offer Menzies a new 1 year contract, lose the chance to sign a decent stand off and struggle through the season only to find nobody is suitable next season?

Bear in mind the list was a little out of date ..

Edited - ta RER

Mateo is off to the Warriors and Keating to the Doggies.

I agree with the people who say lets see what happens before we throw ourselves of the nearest cliff regarding ins and outs. But like wise we could all do with a bit of positive news regarding players coming in. The club have done it the past the signing of big Les, Morrison and more recently Menzies were all announced early.

Tell you something; if it gets to the stage of thinking about throwing myself off the nearest cliff, I'll be dragging a few other buggers off with me!

And the rest of that list are off to Warrington.

Or to play for Leeds for free

Indeed, all the players decided to pay for nothing to accommodate Danny Buderus who is taking up the full cap all by himself, this being the amount he would have been able to command playing AFL.

Jamie Soward....now there's a cracking player...unfortunately one we'd never get

Maybe the idea to let The Beaver go is to free some salary cap so we can afford to retain Mike Worrincy
