Running short of forwards with those 2 banned and Ashworth and Staveley missing through injury.
Wonder if Fash will be back in contention in a fortnight?

Otherwise forwards will be from
Pele
Ese'ese
Okunbor
Cator
Lane
Gardiner
Laidlaw
Scott
Severs?
Jebson?

Either way it looks horribly weak.

Smith talks about rebuilding players in the reserves but how does he do that when we constantly have half the team missing through injury and bans?
Might just have to bite the bullet, drop some under performing players and field a really young side and see how they go.

hes been crap full stop. But new broom so lets give him another go. As long as Grix thinks hes ready who knows he might get better.

Just played in the reserves
as an Ex NRL player playing with young lads in the reserve league you would think he would have had a storming game but his name wasnt even mentioned in the report.
That really bothers me
personally dont think he will be here much longer.
If he stays until the end of the season i would play him on the wing and use his height with crossfield kicks to the corner as we dont have any running strike accross the field

How much territorial dominance/field position have we been in this year to use anybody for crossfield kicks?
Lovely sentiments though.

We have no one in the team who can even kick with any accuracy

Conversions not a strong point either but obviously that's not a top concern right now
