I really don't understand the Seggy fawning in here. He should not be allowed anywhere near our club. Him and his mate Norman are not "family club" material. Sure he is good for 15-20 mins every 3rd game, but he in no way is the answer. It is clear our issues are in the spine and another centre position. With CHN our forwards are now complete and there is some healthy competition with 2-3 first graders who will play in ISP next year as there wont be enough room to fit them all in.
Whilst our spine is not terrible, the real issue is we have a broken 5/8 who is playing halfback, a rookie half/5/8 who may thrive but at this stage is only a prospect, a slow defensive hooker, and a slow but skillful fullback. We have bought a new fullback and halfback but these 2 are only average at this stage and future prospects. What we lack is 1 superstar in any of these positions and this is our real issue. It is the sum of all parts of our spine that make it average. 1 superstar in any of these positions would change this. It doesn't matter which one. The good news is that Lewis, Lichaa, JMK, Cogger, Meaney all are on peanuts. Hoppa can be moved to another position. Foran is the problem. He is supposed to be our superstar, but injuries are not allowing this to happen. Replace his money on a Smith, DCE, Munster, Teddy, Cook, Taylor, Turbo, etc and we are cooking with gas. To conclude, until Foran steps up or leaves, we will struggle as 17% of our cap is being wasted and we cant afford to replace it. Seggy is not the answer, and isn't really an upgrade on what we have long term.
