Hmmm,
So it’s clear to almost everybody that Grant would be the pick of the current hookers.
Maybe Cook too but I don't think he was as effective this year as he should have been.
Not 100% convinced Api would be next. But some say B Smith is the answer, well I have not seen enough of consistent footy at DH to see if he is any better than Api or McInnes. He may be but it is a risk.
I know many of you will scoff at this but I see JMK at the same stage of his development as when Cook was with us. Cook had to work real hard on his development to get where he is now. Yes JMK has been given the opportunity which he has not done much with, but what player actually improved under the previous coaching team?
I am ok if we go into next season without a recognised DH signing, however risks on B smith I say are equal with Daryl Clarke, and I had thought he had a clause in his contract if he wanted to go to the NRL.
What is definite, is we need a change at DH either a new coaching philosophy or a different player, maybe Tbaz is looking within because of limited availability outside. But first one that blinks I have no doubt movement will be made.
