dead set our wingers are hopeless, they frustrated me no end today....they have to be the worst in the NRL
They're not the best in the comp for sure but right now I think they're the best we've got. Chase Stanley was going very well but did his shoulder in and from what I've heard Inu is very ordinary in the NSW Cup. When Stanley comes back we will be goody on one side and hope whoever is named on the other wing can stay solid.

I'm sure we've got the money to buy wingers but Idon't think that there are any to buy except maybe Marika Koroibete from the Tigers

Corey Thompson has no speed, no footwork and no height. He is not a winger and from what i have seen would be just as useless at fb.

Id hate to see it if we lost. All the bagging of players on here makes me laugh.
WE WON FOR F----KS SAKE.
May not be the best wingers in the comp but we are winning.

A bit harsh. Thompson was up against a bloke 2 foot taller. I can't remember (game is a blur) but his only issues were catching bombs right? The kick he put in after the run down the touch line was necessary as he would have been taken into touch.

Brown is usually solid. Didn't really notice him today except when he knocked on. It wasn't an easy ball to catch but he probably should have.

I think they're both decent, not crap, but anyone who watched NSW cup would see Inu doesn't care about being promoted. He's happy to be average in reserve grade.

I'd probably choose Brown and Stanley when he's fit, unless Inu pulls his socks up.

Today was definitely Thompson's worst game in a Dogs jersey but before today he has been ok. I didn't see anything amazing from the NSW Cup players either though. I'm not a fan of Brown at all though. People say that he is good under the high ball but I can't remember the last time he caught an attacking kick and scored. In fact he rarely beats his opposing winger so I'm not sure what he adds to our attack.

They aren't the worst wingers in the comp but when you compare how well the other parts of the squad are going the wingers are an obvious weakness

theres not much we can do this year until Stanley comes back and hopefully Inu finds some form...but for next year we have cash to splash it would be nice to have 1 or 2 big fast wingers

We win the game and people still cry. We are second on the ladder ffs, some are hard to please.

Why change things when we are winning? Sure fire way to destabilise the team and start losing again

if inu showed half the effort and commitment plus consistency of thompson then he would be on the wing with stanley when fit. in my opinion our wingers should be thompson and stanley until the lower grade wingers start stepping up in nsw cup. today was thompson's first game where he hasn't played particularly well, but everyone has an off day in them, 1 bad game doesn't undo 4 or 5 decent performances
