Huh? Hoffman has been that good has he?

Didn't really see this coming and feel bad for BBO

he was our rookie of the year two years ago and also looked pretty electric in a horrid side. barrett really put the brakes on a few young blokes. think biondi will kick on elsewhere, be interesting to see who picks him up next.
Yeah agree on Baz. But not really totally his fault. A lot of pressure put on him to get results and he had no time to develop young players and definitely could not be patient with him however I do agree with you.

Speaking of Baz, Parra's attacked looked good didnt it? Moses is cooked lol anyways

I get that, but why promote another undersized forward? Hoffman isn't even good enough in the first place.
Yeah it's a unbalanced. Our halves depth after starters... Reynolds, Nu Brown (training as a lock) and Oloapu who we will see in NSW cup tomorrow and I guarantee he will look like he's still 2 years away from first grade lol Rajeb is off the bench and I just do not see a path for Rajeb ever playing first grade for us.

I think that was on the cards all pre-season. There's no doubt his manager reached out to Sharks and put feelers out hence Buzz' report earlier this season. Imagine he's just come back from World Cup and arguably his best season in his footy career and Gus not only signs this young kid Oloapu but he walks into the top 30. Not doubting Gus at all, he has the runs on the board, but unfortunately it's a shit go for some (ie. BBO and Rajeb).

ZDC played better in the halves than BBO in cup to be honest. I reckon BBO is probably another Mbye

Unfortunately BBO was always going to struggle to make it maybe try to get a run with one of the qld sides
