We lack punch and aggression.

To put it nicely, Napa has been extremely dissapointing since arriving to Belmore.

Tolman as usual gives 110% every game, but with the importance of rolling forward with the new speed around the ruck, is being left behind in attack.

I hope the club is doing everything possible to bring over the off contract Christian Welch.

We also need an enforcer, a grub like TPJ.

Tolman -----> Welch
Napa ------> TPJ

We're stuck with Napa. No one in their right mind would take him off us unless we're contributing almost everything besides 300k of his contract.

Never pay ex Melbourne forwards they rarely do as well outside of their system.
Jackson needs to move to lock and we need 2 edge backrowers. RFM and Thompson should play as props

I only think we need one more prop. Tolman and Napa are too slow. Ogden and Toomanga with Thompson would be alright. One more experienced prop would be nice.

Packer. We need a big body The English dude at st Helens. The game has moved from athlete , big body props work again. Even kasiano would be good in today's game.

Wonder if the Bulldogs can get Hetherington when his loan with the Warriors is finished?

On his current form our club should shop him around, and I'd be happy for our club to pay $300,000 for him to play elsewhere next year.
However I guess because 2021 will be his contract year, he might decide to have ago.

Agree with Welch and TPJ.

Welch was great for the Storm today along with that young Tino kid who is going to the Titans next year.

We definitely miss a couple of aggressive/grub type players like an Ennis, Reynolds, O'Meley......

I would be going all out for Brandon Smith & Christian Welch.

They have the old Bulldogs mentality written all over them
