I think the players and staff who are involved in NSW Cup each week might give a shit...

Yeah the deal nearly fell through when the roosters didn't wanna release Lloyd, then it became obvious that we were after Sam for Lloyd.. It was a very smart recruiting from our guys, who continue to do a good job.

Would like NSW Cup team to be smashing it, put real pressure on FG for spots.
With the experience in the staff we have here I am sure if Des sees something in Lloyd he will keep him.
Some fans gets frustrated with the lack of players that get first grade opportunities. I look at the players hasler has found and moulded into rep players. Apart from the obvious DCE and Foran, hasler was also instrumental of creating T-Rex into a damaging forward (shame he hasn't been able to get him there again
) was involved with the Stewart bros getting to origin, re-emergence of kite and rose, discovery of burer and creation of their other hooker that made origin (forgot his name)
In all honesty hasler, Egan, and cleal rarely sign the best juniors. But they sign players that they see potential in and bring them into the system. Sila had major deficiencies in his game his hands are not great, his defence is not up to first grade standard. There is a reason he hasn't played yet.
You are almost assured that if a player makes first grade they will either be up for it or have something in them that hasler wants.
Lloyd is a prodigy. He scored 5 tries in sg ball. He is fit, runs hard and can offload. But is still raw. He is playing in a position that usually doesn't flourish until mid 20s.
I doubt tolman is going anywhere. Hasler sees him as our best forward (coaches award 2 years in a row) he will never get dropped because he does what the coach needs (strong call carrier, great defender). If anything we need to shift graham to lock (all the skills and defence ability to be a weapon in that position) which will open up a starting spot for fifita and leaves 2 prop positions on the bench for the likes of kasiano, klemmer, Browne, perrett, Eastwood etc to battle for.
The weak link is trex. But I guess hasler is just hoping he comes good like the rest of us.
For klemmer to make first grade last year (had just turned 19) hasler sees him as a major piece of the puzzle moving forward (even with long term deals to graham, tolman and fifita)

Sila is a real prospect and should be given time to develop his defense not dropped from NSW Cup.
Matty Utai ring a bell?
I will give Sila a bit of credit he can tackle sometimes, but as I have being saying the last 2yrs , he still has a long way too go.
bring on Kayne Brennan...
The sharks and other clubs will probably have Llyod on there radar
If Lloyd develops well then that would be a blessing in disguise for the sharkies. Offloading a 700k prop for a 150k one who will be just as good potentially.

im not to sure what is going on as we are not privy to what des and the club are doing, however there does seem to be a surplus of forwards and props at the club. in saying that look at big sam he has spent a lot of time out with injuries and a replacement was needed.
give lloyd some time he may well develop in to a top liner

Mate he's not good enough get over it. I disagree that he is a real prospect. Just because he scores a few tries in NYC means sweet **** all considering they score 20 a game down there FFS.
How can you bag Des for not dropping players and then say that Sila needs to be automatically selected no matter what.
He's no different to the rest of the 90% from Holden cup who never make it. He's relied on his size and just wants to score tries. He's a lazy trainer and a bad defender who would leak more tries in NRL than he would score. He won't play NRL for the bulldogs and I doubt anywhere tbh

Like when we lost Omeley to the Roosters and got the buy of the decade in Danny Williams
