His hit ups are already better than anyone we have in NRL, but he struggles defensively.
If he can work hard on improving his defence he could possibly play NRL this season.
Possibly true, but even if it is that applies to most NRL teams named on a Tuesday afternoon.
We are the only team without 2-3 genuine stars, the only one we could classify as a star player is Api and at his age he is not at his best every week.
I’d be surprised if clubs such as the Panthers, Sea Eagles Eels, Dolphins, Titans, Dragons all don’t enter the race to sign him.
A big, tall, strong, athletic young prop who runs the ball strongly these type of players don’t grow on trees.
I’ve seen a few highlights of an even younger player...
Decent, but doesn’t grab me as a team that would get us out of the bottom 4.
Api, Olam and Klemner are all ageing, none of them showing signs of getting any better.
Still a noticeable lack of speed in our 1-7 and back row.
Mooney is certainly a promising young prop and would be a very good...
With this season now as good as over, we need to hopefully have some type of plan in place with an eye to improving next season.
It’s quite obvious Luai will play on the left as he’s done for his entire career, so if we are looking at Galvin to be his halves partner why are we not now playing...
He’s always only played left centre, same as Olam.
No point having 2 left centres, we need a right centre, ideally someone who who big, talk, strong, fast and a good reliable defender.
I think I know someone who fits the above criteria, is also a very good goal kicker and was available to sign...
I know we need these type of layers, but there is none available.
You can only recruit what is available, hence the reason a lot of the recruitment in every club is young up and comers or players currently not getting much NRL opportunity.
Generally teams need to harness and create their own...
Benji said the effort was there and then said our kick chase was poor.
Kick chase is an effort play, so if it was poor it means our effort was not good enough in that capacity.
He’s a wholehearted energetic player, appears pretty safe under the high ball and is fairly quick.
A lust ofcwingerscwhocate either off contract or not getting much NRL recognition with their current club;

So you think the Sharks coaching staff would make our team of battlers into a top 8 team ?
I know coaches have a big influence, but they cannot perform miracles.
Building a decent playing roster is the issue.
