No where did I mention anything with Hasler. As far as Hasler is concern, he can go fk himself. What I’m saying is Pay is creating his Under 20’s NSW team and is choosing players that he loves. Example Cogger. Cogger has proven nothing thus far and has not impressed. I understand it takes time for a player to develop and some players play well under certain coaches but watching five games of first grade Cogger has played and it seems as though he isn’t any hope. He had one decent game vs parra and that’s it.
So there is absolutely no other better talent out there that we can afford? Kids are cheap. I’m ok with Pay at this point too and I’ve backed him up all season but it honestly feels like he is choosing youngsters based on favouritism over their talent.
If he can recruit the whole Nsw under 20’s team on the cheap I don’t see this as a bad thing at all!!
Better then paying overs for players like tolman & co
I bet players like Holland never made a Nsw rep side..
Those type of players that come over as fringe players,that end up playing week in week out because they try hard is what kills me, because they are depth players for teams like the roosters and Penrith yet they end up being regular first grade players for us.
If we get players that we’re good enough to make Nsw under 20’s then atleast they have the potential in being above average players..
I’m all for what he has done so far and I’m happy to hear chris Anderson is more involved with recruitment.
