Nope plenty would get a start we are just not getting the best out of them. Sure we don’t have enough origin players who lift the standard at a club. We should be focussed on signing top notch players only. We need 4 or 5 in one hit and get rid of the plodders

He would, but not at left centre. What a brain dead decision by Baz. Elliott would get a start as much as some people won't like it. Ummmm...ahh..that's it for now.

Jackson & Elliot would probably get a bench spot but fucking hell how are we using up our cap on so many duds. Every other team has got 1 or 2 state of origin level players we have nothing. This fringe 1st grader recruitment policy ain't working no point in having a strong Mounties team when we could afford a few elite million dollar players instead.

Elliot and Cotric should have always been right edge. It's Flanagan favoured edge along with Cotric ... And it would have allowed our meh signing in Waddell to be in his favoured position.
Hopefully Nic is given a go at right centre before a rash move back to thing wing

Allan is pure shit... Hilarious that we signed the"QLD fullback" and "NZ fullback and captain" in recent years... We deserve all the shit we get for paying such mediocre wanna be fullbacks good money. It's actually sad how our last 3 coaches have fucked this position up for us.

Elliott and Cotric both need to ball hog, I don't think they should be on the same sides together. Also our right side offers nothing (neither does our left but still...)

i would say we would have 4 genuine 1st grade quality players. Thompson, Ellliott, Jackson and Cotric. Thats it, The rest would struggle to get a starting spot at any other club.

Nick Meaney has surprised me more than anyone, for a fullback playing on the wing he has done really well. Runs hard from our own end and is starting to bend the line more, ran for 185m today.
When he got back into the field of play in about the 14th minute was funny as fuck. But he was definitely our best today, maybe he's best performance in Dogs jersey.
