... as we know Robbo has already dealt with some of them but the likes of FPN/SKD have also been put on notice, if things don't improve in early 2013 you can bet there will be another major shakeout of the current roster.

Now this I like the sound of - sticking a rocket up both those guys is exactly what's needed.

I'm actually a big fan of FPN, I think he's got all the ability in the world just needs a simple game plan to shine.

He can play tight, on the fringes, strong hit ups, great offload, can ball play & is a solid defender.

A simple game plan?
Football ain't a difficult game for a forward.
Run. Hard. Get. Involved. Tackle.

I think that if FP wannabe gangster actually put in an effort he would be amongst the most dominant forwards in the game.
But he is too lazy. He frustrates me more than any player.

That's a pretty major flaw in a dummy halves game, it'd be like hiring an accountant who can't do maths.

Tits on a bull!

No player will and I dont think ever will frustrate me as much as anthony tupou did. The passes, the hits, the knock-ons, the off-loads. There was a period where I considered stopping going to games because I couldnt bare watching that bafoon throw some of the worst passes and make the worst decisions at the worst times

Not only lazy. Also lacking in smarts and skills.

He'd be better of in England, and the sooner the better

Lazy and dumb yes, but he's shown he's got the skills. If Robbo can get his head and heart in the game he can be a very handy player.

Chook.

I understand FPN suffers from some kind of respiratory issues. I'm not sure if he's athsmatic or it's some other problem. But the simple fact is that while a lot of people think him lazy or unfit, sometimes the poor bugger just can't breathe properly.

[stephenj]

is kennedy injured?

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Looks like it is going to be rather damp.

Bugger.

heart related I suspect

with you on this one chook!

Robbo seems be confident in achieving something with FPN, he hasnt been shy in the verbal support at media times...

[stephenj]

fpn has a massive heart, if you know of his background hes a very hard courageous man

[SConcierge]

shame that Kane didnt get a hit out

[Cockadoodledoo]

I thought so too but then thought its probably just my imagination too.... If he has put in the hard work he might be in for a big season....

Verdict is still out on SKD though, especially looking at his performance at the All Stars game... RTS I thought had a cracker game vs Lyon in the trial in centres, so he's another option in the centres whilst Mini hogs FB and I know of a few Manly fans who were talking RTS up after he kept shutting down Lyon. The best part was they didnt even know who he was...

Even though he probably didn't even tackle him all night. RTS was marking Matai.

I don't think he's lacking skills at all.
