I know none of these are available but we need a pack leader like: Paulo, Leota, Haas, JFH, RCG, Tapine, Solomona, Cottor etc.
This guy is your toiler forward. He isn’t a bad player. But you don’t build your club around him. You need a meter eater and someone that will elevate the other middles and hold them accountable. Even fonua-Blake had a big game last week. Literally ran through us. And it is a repeating thing happening week in week out. king is obviously injured, tpj puts in 2-3 mins of effort and gets you excited then isn’t seen again for 25 mins.
I’m not sure what is available and where. But I am confident in Gould finding what is needed. We won’t be a top 5 team without a strong engine room and without a 1 and 7. When you have those positions filled you can throw a Goodwin on the wing and he’ll get you 21 try’s in a season.
