They've both been exceptional buys, and have both performed very well this year.

With Bmoz, we got tried and tested speedster, who can also provide leadership.

With Rona, we got a surprise packet born try scorer, on less coin, and the potential for a long-term future star.

Big question.

If we look at it in terms of cost then you would have to say Rona. On the other hand for experience and proven try scoring ability you would say BMoz.

Which ever way you want to look at it they have both been great for us.

Does anyone else think that Curtis played wounded last night?

I'd say b-moz. Just because of the threat he poses. Finally we can convert line breaks into points.
Rona has been great, a real tryscorer, but I think he needs to work on his agility a little. He seems to make good decisions while defending, but has been exposed by kicks in behind. Looks like he's a little slow to turn.

Rona needs to get involved more.

Cheers mate, once again that is another fair point. Did not even think about time on the field.

As happy as I am with both, we still lack an outside back with great footwork. Morris has great speed and strength, but he needs to be given space - he can't really create the space for himself.

Mbye seems to have the best footwork in our squad. When he runs the ball he looks threatening every time.

Hard comparison tbh. Brett is playing out of position but he has played well and is getting better, he's only a stop gap and I can see him going back to the wing for the back end of his contract (depending on how long Abbey takes to come good). Rona has come straight in and played well.

Both awesome buys, but if I had to pick just one I'd say Rona. Early on in his career and outstanding value for what he does on the field, guys like him are really important to having a strong team (that is under the salary cap)

Rona without a doubt. Came over on chump change.

Bmoz on the other hand is just a winger used to doing very little, filling in at fb and earning top dollar.

If Morris didn't get injured in the Rabbitohs game and we won it id say Morris he was on fire before that game and injury. But atleast I was correct in saying Rona shits all over Thompson when everyone else was calling me crazy and have no idea. Guess yall have no clue. Especially the guy who called me out making a thread for me lol.
P.s yes I hold grudges on the kennel

Yeah Joshy hogged it again last night, Hasler needs to give him a spray and remind him it's a team sport, if someone else has the oppurtunity to score a try you give it to them and not let your pride get in the way. He and lafai are the biggest ball hogs

Personally I thinkBMoz and Curtis are on a par. Two different players in different positions both putting in stellar performances.
