Although he showed glimpses, he was under utilised and wish we kept him. Obviously our staff rate RFM higher than Atoni...

Has no one learnt that if Storm/Roosters want a player it means they are rated, if they release a player they don't rate them.

Towards the end Atoni gave up but I think Baz's team selections contributed towards that. Before he was being F'd around earlier in the season I thought he was in our top 3 players. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a Reimis 2.0 situation. I think it's less likely but I wouldn't be surprised...

I think it’s more likely. Atoni actually has ability whereas Reimis doesn’t. Commentary were saying something like 90% of linebreaks storm have copped have been through Smith and his winger

Probably but I also remember them mentioning Kaufusi and Hughes defensively. Reimis has had a breakout season this year. Reimis also definitely had ability.

If Robinson can somehow get Renouf to have a go for the whole time he's on the field, he could come good and be another Reimis. But he's not doing it for us so it's gotta be out with the old and in with the new. I agree Baz's selection roundabout with Renouf and others has been bizarre, but he's lazy and 5 years with little if any improvement isn't enough to waste one of our last spots on IMO.

I don't think we need to sign anyone else now except specific targets if available. Better options will likely come up in the silly season.

Anyone remember that time he decided to randomly run really hard off the back fence on a kick off return seconds before half-time? Was like the only time he ever gave his all and showed what he is capable of. A shame he is so lazy and can't motivate himself.

We desperately need prop depth for next year. Tuifua's a good start (in theory, never watched him play) if he's in the top 30 (no idea).
