Message: [QUOTE="theshed, post: 3451561, member: 2290"] I don’t think he deserved to be dropped after any of those performances. I was pointing out a significant flaw in his game. I think we’ve gotten into the weeds a bit here and what my actual thoughts are have been lost in the back and forth. Here are my actual thoughts: 1. Walters would not be at the club if his dad wasn’t coach. Regardless of what we think of his performance, I believe this to be accurate. 2. Walters, through no fault of his own, should never have been the first choice 9 at the club and this has been a significant flaw in the clubs retention and recruitment. Multiple people are to blame for this. 3. Walters did okay at hooker and played as well as expected. Walters didn’t deserve to get dropped but as said above, the club shouldn’t be in a position where Walters is our best hooker. 4. Over the last 3 seasons better options have been available and those saying there weren’t are not correct. The cap isn’t an excuse when there have been multiple signings that we prioritised above hooker. 5. Walters didn’t deserve to be dropped but neither did Paix. If one of them deserved to be dropped I would suggest it be Walters based on his poor defence. In my opinion, our attack looked significantly better when Paix would come on. 6. Smoothy is a welcomed upgrade on Turpin. 7. Walters extending on a 1 year low income deal to play depth while the club desperately tries to find an answer to the dummy half dilemma is fine. I would argue that outside of Niu, Walters may be the lowest priority re-signing at the club and his contract should reflect that. [/QUOTE]
