Dont blame him cant get spots of BJ, Oldfield and maybe RTS. With Sonny Bill coming too who's a centre could push Moga to wing which hardens his chances.

Cowboys is hard to crack into as well Faifai Loa can't even get a FG spot and he's a rep. Tate, Winterstein KFF Loa, Feldt good luck buddy. Should've gone to Eels or Sharks as Best will retire soon and so will Pomeroy

Another good solid game from Kane Linnett tonight. This kid is going from strength to strength, and to think he was not wanted at the Roosters. Swap him for the 'Lantern' any day of the week.

Yawn. What ever is happening at the Cowboys has no correlation to anything that may have or will happen with us.

he is on 200+ k and we let him go because we had other options/werent going to match that not because we didnt want him. who would you release from this backline to accomodate him and even if you see him as better than oldfield/tagive/henry, they are all on less than half of what he is earning:
1. Mini/RTS
2. Oldfield/Tagive/Henry
3. Leilua
4. SKD
5. Moga

Like I said, I'd swap him for the 'Lantern'.

im guessing thats leilua. he has ridiculous untapped potential and should be bulked up and playing in the backrow. even so; SBW in the centres instead of leilua or push moga into the centres and play 2 out of tagive/henry/oldfield on the wings. still think they are superior options in terms of ability and value for money. 200k+ is massive

You guessed wrong. The 'Lantern' is SKD, because he isn't too bright when it comes to football knowledge.

i think the same adjustments could still be made. on SKD, like friend, pearce and others, he has stacks of potential and ability. he just needs a defined role and to be used wisely. in an average team his try scoring has always been a highlight and every team needs that. since he has returned from injury, our attack has drastically improved the brain snaps aside. might i add that although he has played more than 100 games, he is only early 20s and was centre of the year a year ago with inglis, hodges, morris' all around. no mug

So far I've read tonight that we have to get rid of Pearce and SKD. Who's next? Cordner?

something like that . dont forget maubs, leilua and friend. apparently in his few first grade games to date, the 18 year old moga has also been underwhelming and we cant seem to understand the hype. go figure....

Cordner is a keeper and one of the better performers all year.

SKD is lucky he signed a long term deal a few years ago, and will be lucky to see that out. Swap him for Jennings I reckon.

Pearce is over rated as a halfback but would make a great hooker.

SKD genuinely worries the opposition and more often than not creates us tries. I forgive his defence (though hope this issue is finally addressed) for what he provides us in attack.
