Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 3395916, member: 1769"] Tough question ... before I answer it though, I'd like to say that I'm glad we have a coach that's prepared to listen to advice and act accordingly. Unlike our previous coach (whose name should never be mentioned on here ever again) Now: I honesty don't think we are too far away from contender status. We need a 6 IMO. He doesn't need to be the best 6 to ever play the game, but he should have a strong running game. I don't mind the moneyball approach here either, despite it being a spine position. The question is, can Mam be that player, or should we hit the market? TMM can be our version of Dylan Edwards IMO, only a better play makers. Give him the rest of this season, followed by a full pre-season getting mentored by Boyd and we have the fullback we need moving forward. I'd cap any extension to Haas at 800k, if he loves the club and is motivated by premierships he'll stay, if not he'll leave, but that wouldn't be the end of the world. Carrigan is good enough to br our main prop, and we could use the moneyball strategy to get another prop like Hensen and have a couple of hundred K left over to get a better 6. A Paix/Walters hooker tag team will work until Mozer is ready, they just need a bit of time to develop in the roles. The only back line change I would make would be to swap Cobbo and Herbie. IMO, center should be Cobbos long term position. If Herbie leaves, then Pereira will do a fine job on the wing. Oates should be offered a new contract, slight less than his current one. I feel a 350k -400k a season is fair and one he would accept. My final team. 1. TMM 2. Oates 3. Cobbo 4. Staggs 5. Herbie 6. New signing / Mam 7. Reynolds 8. Jensen 9. Paix 10. Haas 11. Capewell 12. Riki (I think Piakura will eventually claim this spot 13. Carrigan 14. Billy 15. Flegler 16. Hethrington 17. Palasia [/QUOTE]
