Why??? Seriously we don't need him

[Guest]

We Do his better than Joe Burgess and Dale Copley

[eddie]

We've already got three first grade wingers.

[Bigchook]

We wouldn't be buying him to play wing.

Agree. Fullback is his position but as mentioned in other posts Mitchell is our prospect there. Where would we play him if it's even true we're after him ???

[Johnny.]

Joe Burgess showed enough to show me that with time he'll be very good. With a fullback who backs up his players and not a very good centre out of position things will be different.

[fletch]

we don't need another young outside back, we desperately need a big body backrower and a veteran front rower.

[John Corey]

Don't we already have a post about this?

Yeah but Turk has been missing for a little while and needs to build up his posts again.

He'd play fb for a season to a season and half. Robbo has said Mitchell will ply his trade on the wing until he's ready. Obviously reluctant to throw a rookie into a vital position for a team that may struggle in the absence of its big names.

We definitely need them. Their names are cordner and jwh though. I don't think we need to buy them. I'd like to pursue Lawrence though. He'd have been useful on the weekend. Fast, strong and experienced. Wasted in nsw cup. Did matagi get a run for Penrith? Bet we wish we kept him for the peanuts he was on.

I don't understand Robbo on that one.
Either Mitchell is a fullback or he ain't. You'd think he'd improve quicker playing his right position, and wingers are specialists themselves.
Holmes has virtually no games as a fullback in top grade as well.

Yep & their names are Boyd Cordner & Jared Waerea-Hargreaves!

Hopefully Mitchell is playing FB this week. Fergo has the passing ability of Daniel Wagon.....
