Well maybe not Henry but I do think he has potential as a coach, I think he has a group of players that just aren't clicking and losing both their hookers has been a massive blow.
I don't want Walters. I want an established first grade experienced coach who will get us wrestling and slowing down the opponents. Whether that be Bellamy, Maguire, Henry, Flanagan etc. Under Henjak and Griffin we have stood still while the rest of the league has evolved with the way tackling...
Yep Hayne is a monster loss whether on the wing or at fullback, McManus is a good finisher and a very solid defender but they will not have that x factor that Hayne possesses so they are clearly worse off by this change. I think we will just target the channels a bit more with McQueen, Thaiday...
As long as Wade Graham doesn't destroy Josh Hoffman's confidence like he did for the remainder of last season during the corresponding match last year I will be happy.
Yeah I get that but he is brutal and running off his club halves he would be incredible. You are right though ideally for them it wouldn't be at Bird's expense, I think you bring him in for Hoffman they look infinitely better.
I think Boyd Cordner is a weapon, they lose little if Bird is out for him. Gallen missing out and Woods coming in though is a different story, Woods showed he doesn't have the leg drive or aggression in Origin 2.
One statistic that is not made up is that we are the least penalised side in the competition and we sit right down near the bottom and the Roosters are the most and they are second. Sides that wrestle and slow the play down make it a lot easier for themselves because they can set their line and...
It frustrates me how little time he gets from Hook. He always runs hard and tackles hard meanwhile we have Gillett rushing out and missing a lot of tackles and we have Glenn doing SFA out in the centres both getting 80 minutes most weeks, we have Hannant, Thaiday, Parker and McGuire who can all...

We just need a coach who actually appreciates the wrestling aspect of the game and who also isn't afraid to make tough decisions which is exactly what the club needs.
I would take Fisiiahi over Locke I think he has a little bit extra to offer than Locke although they are both exciting and both better than anything we have had at fullback since Hunt.
Firstly. I would remove Andrew Gee and Anthony Griffin who are the two biggest reasons we are in the position we are. Our recruitment and retention has been embarrassing and I would also change the scouting people we have because we are missing out on too many good kids and producing none worth...
You are seriously the voice in Griffin's head. "Too many changes, we just need some confidence" If watching a once great club embarrass itself is your thing then fine but I actually want to see a shitload of changes because quite frankly that is exactly what is needed, our team is absolutely...
Exactly right. Reed is a solid player doesn't do much wrong and doesn't do much great either, we have very little depth in our outside backs so he isn't really being pushed for a spot.
My issue with Glenn is completely down to laziness. The guy is our only forward who doesn't roll his sleeves up and do the tough runs from our own goalline. I also don't think he is big enough to last as a starting backrower long term in first grade.
