Seen enough this year from our spine to conclude they either dont have it to make NRL or they arent ready for NRL..

Decisions need to be made asap.. Other clubs are ruthless and dont persist as long with players that arent up to it..

All spine positions especially Hooker, Halfback and even fullback should be reviewed.. time to scout around and sign some lower grade players or kids that show promise in these positions..

Nothing will change with our attack if we keep the spine the way it is..

It all starts with the hooker and JMK is a dud in attack hes been given a shot at FG for 18months with nothing to show..
Cogger hasnt offered anything either in his time all year - zero threat in attack all year..

These players have been brought up to FG without ever even proving themselves in lower grades..

Salary cap isnt an excuse... CA said last year he will.be scoyting around for the best young talent well its over a year now and we are still waiting for the club to sign some talented juniors..

1,6,7,9 should all be different as soon as forans contract is up. Meaney catches bombs and that’s it

Start with Meaney, he is a dud.
He kills our sets with his soft runs from the back and has nothing in attack.

JMK FMD I'd rather Aiden Tolman at hooker at this stage!

I think Aidan Tolman is a great halfback

Meaney...safe hands but to play fullback in first grade you’ve got to offer something in attack, he needs to develop this part of his game in the Reggie’s

I’ve got a headache

very dodgy spine atm. would love Tracey and Papenhyuzen in the mix, dont know if Coggers our long term option yet... but fuck we need a threatening hooker badly.

Get a decent hooker and our dummy half service starts to add 3 metres to our go forward per tackle. Compound that in 80 minutes and we are a different side. our 20m attack would also go another level. But JMK and Lichaa don't have footy brains. They just play hard and one dimensional.

I’d give Reimis a crack at fullback just to get him in the game
