Perhaps more accurately;
Meaney hasn't yet displayed the attributes that Hopoate has many times.
Not saying that he won't, just that I haven't seen them yet.
Maybe you should spend more time watching the footy. I think most people have seen it.
In FG? From memory last season 5 games which I deliberately watched after he signed with us. I was actually at the game against the Eels where I thought his positional play in defence was questionable and he got burnt a couple of times as result. He was better against Titans, but still caught out of position a few times, same with the StGeorge game. I think, all up in FG and ISP, he only played 9 games last season due to injury. Don't get me wrong I think he is a great acquisition and should turn out to be a valuable asset for us. He just needs time and some better coaching on his positional play and fullback tackling technique.

Michael Jennings with Parra paying some of his freight..

Yes or No?
Jennings is on what I call the down hill spiral, for me it is best left up to the coaches to decide if he is worth the risk at the price, yes our centre stocks aren't that great but then the possibility of wasting even $4k (with Parra paying the other $4) on an ISP player would not be good idea, in terms of risk-reward my answer is NO.

You know what? I would take Jennings for a year or 2 to provide some experience in the backs where we have zero bar Hopoate.

Yes he isn't what he used to be but I think he'd be able to play a role.

However we are 30/30 so we would have to release someone.

I agree with Winston here

Nathan Ross from Newcastle told he can look elsewhere with knights paying majority of contract. What do we think yes/no?

31 this year, and spent half of last season injured.

Would be perfect for Souths/Sharks/Cowboys, who love an aging player.

If Bellamy couldn't get the best out of him then no one can.

I wouldn't be surprised if he went to the ESL. He'd dominate over there.

Nope. He has deteriorated unfortunately and we would be doing Melbourne a favour which I NEVER want to do.

The only favour he would be doing if he came back is for the owner of the kebab shop in Belmore
