We need a goal kicker

The new coach unlike the old coach has an emphasis on our team scoring tries. When we improve this part of our game, the next task will be to unearth the obsolete art of conversions.
Fingers crossed

To be fair to Mbye, how could we expect him to improve his goal kicking if we were lucky to score 1 TRY a game?

There's a difference between being able to kick goals at training vs kicking goals in First Grade NRL games.

He struck them well in the trial albeit fairly easy ones

It will

and on top of all that, all our trys were on the sideline

Yeah that's the bit a lot of people forget. I can't remember too many tries we scored that weren't on the edges. In terms of kicking from out there he probably was about as good as most. Hopefully this year with better attacking options he might get most of them closer to the posts and it won't matter.

Our lack of a proper converter is a big problem that will bite us in the ass in those close games where every point counts, yet nothing has been done to solve this

Well u cant blame the board, CEO or coach for that. They are all different now.

We hope for now that mbye improves, and that he doesnt have to kick them all from the sideline like 2017. First we need to score more tries, and make goalkicking matter. For the last year or 2 goalkicking wouldnt have made much difference to our premiership hopes.

It'd be nice to hear Dean Pay tell us who'll be kicking this season and how they've improved under the keen eye of Darryl Halligan.

Definitely a pipe dream here, but if the dogs could lure Albert Kelly back to Oz he would fill a void. Creative half to compliment Foran and can kick goals.

Yes he played pretty well last week but I read somewhere where he has just resigned with the ESL for another few years.
