so whats going on with recruiting and development  then. here we are playing morris as a fwd because we dont have fwds who can defend or kick a goal.it smacks of desperation and makes the decision not to go after garlett even more perplexing.
lets see sam lloyd if he cant defend pee him off, edwards another, gordon well he has the pace why arent we specifically trying him in the role is he not good enough .. lennon another flanker slow as can we afford to play him in his natural role, mcdonough is another, then theres butler why not try him in the role or short for that matter. nope instead we take the only sml/med defender  we have had in yrs who can do a reasonable job on sml fwds.why are we  robbing peter to pay paul has recruiting been that bad that we cant even try others in the role. why are we not keen to try others.

Excellent point claw.

If we peed off all the players who couldn't defend and then adds the one who couldn't kick a goal we would need more top ups than the druggies

And add all the softie, lolly pop, pansie, poo munching, woolly woofters we'd be a start up like gws

It's only fair that now we're 18th on the ladder, I show the faith back in the club and do everything I can to put them in front. In the end, I'm stoked I made the decision to stay. I f***ing love this club”

Plus the ones over 200cm, they need to go as well

Maybe Morris just needs a haircut. It was pretty bad and not a great image for a captain.

Good point I think this needs to be discussed and then taken directly to Gale

We don't need to recruit BECAUSE dimmer reckons we've got it right.

His defensive pressure in the F50 is. Dry very good and I understand that is his role but sometimes (and I've said this in the past) he actually needs to go the ball rather than the man.

Not sold that just laying tackles and bumping is all a small defensive forward needs to do

And BTW just on that haircut .... Really hard to take anyone seriously with that  :chuck  ;D

Besides his hair, how does everyone rate Steve atm, for mine, I love his toughness, I love his endeavour, is he over his shoulder issues? and are his ball skills up to par?  is there a spot for him in our strongest 22, ?
