We can't rant judge where we'd have been with a fitter squad. We've been absolutely decimated by injury, far far worse than any other team....
Unfortunately that's threatening to ruin our season... Not sure there writings have been any other solution to the start we've had, and likely to have for the next month or so.
Moving forwards we need to be able to pay without Gale as his age and injuries will mean he wasn't okay every game. Also need to make sine big calls on Senior player retainment /signings for next year...


I agree Shabino. Injuries have done us so far but so has a lack of discipline. A fully fit squad has the potential to challenge top 4 and no team can cope with the numbers weve had out but there are issues with the squad.

I do think when Mikolaj, Prior and Tetevano are on the pitch we have a decent pack but a top class partner for Gale has to be a priority. Clearly Lui is the best option at the club at the minute but his injury has killed that and hes not the answer going forward either.

We currently have Lui, Martin, King V and Thompson taking up 4 overseas spots. Are they really the quality you want from your overseas quota? Not easy to attract NRL players these days but im sure we can get a lot better than those 4.

We gave Thompson, Donaldson, Dwyer, Leeming and Briscoe new extended deals. Incredible.

Look, KR apart the team has competed well with heavily depleted teams. Fri was a big letdown, were better than that. We need a response from the team this week. We arent as bad as we think we are but we can do better.

Great post. Think Hudds looking alot better on paper. Kr was the game we needed to win. How we go depends on whether we can get some confidence back...

Lui Martin Prior and King V all off contract. I think only Lui so far is the one who won't be offered a new deal. Martin needs to improve and far too early to judge King V. Prior may retire but if he does decide to do another 12 months then the club will I'm sure take him up on this.
