Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3044197, member: 1899"] It's not necessarily who is in-front of Tanah, but who is around him. I look at NRL Squad players in four seperate categories Starters Short Term Depth Long Term Applying that to Brisbane... At the start of the year Milford and Nikorima were the starters. That was far from an ideal situation given Nikorima was for all intents and purposes a depth player. Which is why both he and Seibs made the right call to move on. Short term are your O'Sullivans and Dargan's. They've come through the grades and they're ready for their opportunity to sink or swim. Brisbane have no depth players. The best example in the NRL Ryley Jacks. A player who has been around the system for years but will should never be the first choice at the NRL level. Long term are your colts players who are only now getting used to the rigors of first grade football. At Brisbane you had Tom Dearden, Cory Paix, Tanah Boyd, Sam Walker and Josh James all in this position. Ideally, you should have at least one gun in this position, but you want to avoid a situation like Brisbane where you've put a lot of stock in it. At the Gold Coast he has Starters: Roberts, Taylor Short Term: None Depth: Jacks Long Term: None It's a no-brainer. [/QUOTE]
