I think we should do whatever we can to try and get Harry Grant over. Maybe give them Lewis as a player swap.

Punting Lewis would sort out alot of our problems. Like most have mentioned on here recently, Hoppa would be a solid 6... Would perform better there than Lewis if required imo

Hopoate, seriously, no long kicking, no high kicking game, short kicking game so so, yep, just what is needed in a 5/8.

Not my original idea ... Was a dig at Lewis highlighting how shit a half he is and that Hoppa would be better there than him

I'd like to find out whose original idea it was, there's a padded cell waiting for them.

You didnt mention his lack of good defence. Seriously Hoppa is not a half, and never will be.

But he has better vision and passing game then Lewis and that was the original debate I believe

He basically just said kicking game 3 different ways and flat out ignored that Hoppa is by far the better ball runner and ball player. Better short passing game, better long passing game, better quick passing game, better flick passing game, better offloading game...am I doing it right? Haha.

Nailed it, all great attributes for a centre.

After seeing the hooking performance. We really should be doing all we can to get Harry Grant over. A season of top grade this season, could really see him show what he has learnt from Cam Smith, and run the team. Watching him play QLD Cup last year, he looks like a class player. We can't let the Tigers grab him, when we have the cash. A good hooker would make a big difference to this team.

Dogs should sign him before June 30. Plays a lot like Barba, safe at the back, explosive speed and can read the game well.

We need to either do as above or play Meaney or Hoppa at fullback and DWZ either wing or center.

DWZ couldn’t catch Corona virus at a chinese backstreet market the middle of an outbreak.

Jake Clifford- Cowboys
Tristan Sailor- Dragons
Stephen Crichton- Panthers
Keaon Koloamatangi- Rabbitohs


I think they are all young talented players who have bright futures ahead.

Who are some of your buys?

We really need better. Top proven NRL talent preferably with some X Factor (a controlling 7 and 9 would be ideal but it doesn't look available).

Clifford vs Wakeham/Cogger. Sailor vs Meaney. Koloamatangi vs Toomaga. It looks like much of the same same tbh. I think we're past recruiting players like this (develop them ourselves on the side like we have) unless they're freaks (and they're not going to be cheap).

Xavier Coates comes to mind as another tho.
Matt Burton looked good in his one and only NRL game.

Your argument is illogical. Sailor would replace Crichton not Meaney. Koloamatangi would replace Stimson not Toomaga. Clifford is better than any half that we have.

You're dreaming if you think top stars are going to join us.
