Absolutely, we need to shake it up and big time.
I see many have Fualalo in their squads... I don't think he offers anything to what a poor Klemmer and Woods already do, not needed. We need a serious shake up, now and not in 10 rounds time or towards the end
Not sure about wholesale changes. Although there could be a few players that can force there way through.
Pay should put some FG players on notice and create some competition for spots.
Some first graders need to take their finger out of their arse.
I've said it before there are a lot of players that look awesome in reggies but play average in first grade.
I think Nu Brown deserves an 80 min crack at FG. We really need to see what he's got. Has played 35 NRL games.
Seen him sniff out a few tries in ISP.
Montoya needs a rest in reggies and Olive needs to be given a shot in the outside backs.
Forwards is a hard one to get a gauge on.
First grade is another level up. Especially in the forwards.
Especially middle forwards. FG is much quicker, you need to be fittter in defence to continually get back on side, as any first grade attacking side will find you out in the middle third of the field.
When these reseve graders are making hit ups in ISP they are making yards at will, but FG is different, defences run up at you, are more physical and hit harder.
We are lacking depth in quality forwards, who are hungry with NRL experiance. We let go a lot of that last year and the year before.
Watching the Warriors forwards in the last couple of games, man they run hard and hit hard.
But we have Aaron Woods, bundys on, makes a couple of meters, makes a few offloads then bundys off....not good enough, need to show him a few videos of O'meley. Man I miss the Ogre!
