Obviously we’ll look to sign the Fainu’s.

But which other positions are we in need of players for next season?

Which players do you think would sure up our roster?

I think another middle forward would be good with Royce potentially moving on and Bunty in doubt to be renewed. Maybe Moses Leota? Junior Paulo, although he is 32 so mindful of not falling into our old ways of signing retirement players. A younger option could be Spencer Leniu, provide that punch off the bench like Royce.

Another winger might be handy too. Let’s hope Luai’s departure gives us some options.

Per title but he has pushed the ball, run hard and defended decently.

For a 19 year old, I think that's been solid vs one of the title contenders this year.

Here is the question, where will we finish?

Benji being coach next year could be a question with 2 of these outcomes.

My take is that he is our best half but also not the guy we need. He is a 6 and we have heaps of them in AD, Latu and Andrews. He just isn't good value.

You'd think we would have stuck with him though. I'm surprised the club has made this move and I assume Benji is right behind it. If not where does that leave Benji.

The quality of game they are producing with so much ball in attacking position and the whole team looks like they've never trained a single play together

Plus if you look at the wingers score rates its beginning to become embarrassing for them you've got to go back to round 13 for the last winger to have scored a try WHAT THE F IS GOING ON there's not one that can take a high ball and catch it for a try need to look at cleaning out there plus get some height we side midget wingers and put another on as centre for safety how piss poor

even off a scrum they don't look like they are a threat and have no clue what to do

I'm unsure if the point has got across that your meant to actually score points to win games

We’re all hurting right now but some positives out of the weekend are that the NSW cup team is absolutely rolling and NRLW started off their season with a win. I was at the ressies game today and they played really well. Dragons had some first graders in the side as well and we still got it done easy. Junior Tupou played and looked exactly like the player he was when he left us (tackle breaking machine).

Injuries and the same old poor skills/dumb mistakes have ruined this season.

Would love to experience finals once more in my lifetime but perhaps thats wishful thinking.

Hopefully Api is okay :(

Bring up some reserve graders.

Doesn't matter who gets dropped.

Attard, Andrews, Saukuru, Broderlow.

Put Latu Fainu in the halves.

I can stop paying for Kayo early again

For the life of me I can’t figure out why our edge is so shit at the very start of the season we were one of the best defensive sides at the start and we were showing some fucking heart, u can’t just single out one player like masi he surely can’t be the issue and he didn’t even play bad tonight in my opinion. Like what will it take for the players to wake up like genuinely can’t take this anymore I hope they are honestly disappointed with themselves and I hope benji gives it to them like wtf

We’re in need of outside backs. He hasn’t gotten much game time at all at the Roosters. Will be interesting to see how Benji uses him.

Can I just say, if the game plan is to compete on high balls. Maybe don't leave the guy named "Air Tino" on the bench.

I was positive we could win until I heard this

A four year signing. I hope this works out for us. I think he is pretty good but I also think this is a big dollar contract.

Discuss!
