I think we need to start Curran there at 13 for first 15 or so and have Curran, Hughes and King on the field together as long as possible. That would solve alot of issues. Curran needs to play 60 min plus, King 50 plus and Hughes 40 plus. We have been dropping off massively lately once king and Hughes are off.

If only this was salmon
I guess it's not Salmon's fault he gets selected for our 80 minute ball handling lock. I hope that from now until next weekend that we can come up with an alternative otherwise it's lights out to a roller coaster of a season.

I don’t want to harp on but this is such a big loss. I’d say Mann has arguably been the best lock in the NRL all year. I would take him any day over Murray, Radley put it that way.
He makes our team so much better. Wonder if he could play the GF if we made it? He’s definitely tough enough.

Oloapu will be a beast at lock. A pre season at lock next year and hopefully its the end of Hayward and Salmon at lock
He would be if fit. Players sometimes aren't the same after neck issues.

You know it’s not a injury, right? It’s a genetic condition that has been corrected. So very different to player that has suffered an injury whilst playing, that could/would be concerned about being re-injured.

Imagine telling us at the start of the year that losing Kurt Mann would potentially derail our season you would of got laughed out the forum
To be honest he was by far and away the most experienced player in the squad and most battled hardened and NRL ready player. Yes burton fox and critta are the headline acts and superstars. But it’s your Curran and Mann and king that do the dirty work no one notices. Just like tolman just like Grimaldi just like Jeremy smith to name a few. If we are comparing it to 09. He was the stagg of that influx. Everyone was hooked on jmoz or ennis or kimmorley. But stagg was the heart of that team.
