Re: 2022
The first thing that would be a definite for me is not extending any of the following who are off contract - Williams, Soliola, Havili and Frawley. I would keep Lui if he's willing to sign on for minimum. Then I'd be telling Horsburgh and Hodgson that they're not getting another contract beyond their final year next year and let them go if they find another club... carry a couple hundred k for Hodgson if we need to in order to get him out before next season imo. If Starling is our hooker from now, we just can't carry Hodgson... the money is better spent upgrading elsewhere. I think there are then a number of players that you wouldn't stand in the way of if they were to find deals elsewhere but those guys above all gotta go. A lot of our younger guys such as Kris, Guler, Simonsson - they're fringe first graders at the moment imo. Valemei is flat out not a first grade player at this stage and I'm not sure I have a lot of confidence in his progression. Outside of halfback, I'd be recruiting talent at second row and an outside back. Whatever other spots we need to fill should be focused on players who at least show some promise and are willing to put in the hard yards.

I think a few people have forgotten about Trey Mooney. I am confident he will be in our 17 next year.

Re: 2022
If Williams is re-signed to purely be the NSW cup / lower grade half to assist with development and never set foot on the field for our NRL side again, I can live with it. And if we've signed Williams, then I'm sorry but Frawley needs to go. I would honestly rather somebody like Ash Taylor taking up that spot - somebody who we shouldn't have to call upon unless our starting halves and Schneider are all injured, who actually has the potential to play at a higher level, but it wouldn't matter if we never got that from him. Or Benji Marshall would be perfect for that back up role - provides some experience and leadership as well as being levels above Williams and Frawley.Matt wrote: ↑September 3, 2021, 3:12 pmIve just messaged GE.

Pearce for 1-2yrs or Benji for 1, would do a guy like Schnider the world of good IMO.
As for Ash, at 200-300K for 2yrs, I think the risk is pretty low at our end.
Ive said anything up to 400K for 2yrs, for Brooks is pretty low risk.
TBH, i dont think either are worth more than 400-500K anyway, and they are paid twice that currently.

Re: 2022
What's stopping us from bringing in both Pearce and Benji? or Pearce and Ash Taylor? I think that's the type of thinking we need to have moving forward and it's not unachievable considering the G.

Re: 2022
I hate it this time of the year, when we are knocked out and there's still several months before the cricket starts. I didn't watch the GFs in 2017-18 or any of the finals matches in those years.
Best wishes to the players, coaching staff and their families - it's been tough to play and train in these circumstances.
I'm still hurting after what I saw on Thursday night - pathetic display by a team that needed to win to make the semis. In our golden era, we would win 5-7 games straight just to make the semis. This year, we were on NRL360 for more our off field exploits than on field performances.
I hope to hear that we have signed a good assistant attacking coach and half soon.

Re: 2022
That team above would dead set beat our team
Re: 2022
I'd bring Nicholls back in a heartbeat (if he is in fact off contract). He's been excellent for Souffs this year. I also think Pearce is a better short term option than Dylan Brown unless you signed Brown to play five eighth and moved Wighton to lock. Imo, Brown and Wighton are too similar and would just create a duplicate of what we already have and that just would not work.
I can't have Whitehead in my starting side. He looks gassed after five minutes and I think he's a terrible leader.
Based on what we actually know I'd have this side:
CNK
Savage
HSS
Timoko
Rapana
Wighton
Frawley
Tapine
Young
CHN
Papalii
Starling
Sutton
Whitehead
Guler
Kris
James
Not much to write home about I know, but that's the best side IMO based on who we have under contract

I agree we are bottom 4 unless we admit we have screwed up on our current contracts, take a hit and pay some freight on a few players and create some genuine roster space to bring in new talent, new culture, new enthusiasm. The same same being listed above is not going to be pretty viewing….

NFL season kicks off this friday, and the Super Bowl is on Feb 13th
So you get NRL season, runs straight into NFL season, which finishes up just as the pre season trials etc for NRL season are happening.
it's a really a delightful year long calendar

Re: 2022
Not much to look forward to.
The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.
If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

Re: 2022
EPL and F1 holds me over nicely until the proper Cricket starts.
Really been getting into F1 in particular over the last 1-2 years. Incredible sport - no other competition in the world pushes so hard for such small margins. A club like ours could learn an endless amount of things from the way F1 teams operate.

Amazing experience if you get the chance..
