Surely Willie Isa should be the one to go given our 2nd row options?

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

He's one player I've championed but never thought we'd sign him.
He a running 6, would make a good fullback I always thought but has played 9 most of last season.
I'm over the moon with this signing.

That’s days since you won the league.
66years 6months 17days
I’m quite happy with our diligence on players seeing as in that time we’ve won it 14 times.
2/10 must try harder. |

The Mole considers this a 'top shelf' signing.
He's one pundit I've always taken seriously.
Think it's safe to say I'm very happy with this one.

Seems a decent signing but if it’s in place of French I will be disappointed.

I'm at work and not had much chance to look into him, does he kick goals? Assume not, nobody had said anything I can see.

There are plenty of options in various positions as things stand and that’s good to have. The squad does look to have had a real freshen up and us as fans and even better, opposition teams/coaches are probably a little bit in the dark as to what to expect from some of the new guys. I’m sure opposition teams will have access to plenty of footage but there’s nothing quite like having seen opposition players in the flesh and on numerous occasions.
We’ll see how we go. It may not be big household names we’ve brought in but on the face of it, the positions we needed to address have been.

Doesn’t look to. I think his stats showed he’d kicked one in the NSW cup.
That probably puts him in as our second choice to be fair. |

I see Joe Shorrocks as our future loose tbh, Bateman deserves the shirt for the respect side of things and the SL history of it, but i would prefer to keep him in 2nd row. I would like Joe Shorrocks to start getting more time there and making it his position, think he has earned that from last season imo.
Willie Isa drops out, great servant and a workhorse he is, but we should be looking to the future from here on out, should have been let go of by now for me.
Added singleton to the starting lineup for experience in the front row to start games, also Ellis seems typically come off the bench from what i have seen of him, could have been a pecking order thing to be fair.
Tommy doesn't go around again for me, may be too late for that now it has all been agreed, he is cover / experience in the reserves for those coming through the system.
Bevan French
Abbas Miski
Zak Hardaker
Jake Bibby
Liam Marshall
Cade Cust
Harry Smith
Brad Singleton
Sam Powell
Patrick Mago
Liam Farrell
John Bateman
Joe Shorrocks
------------
Jai Field
Kaide Ellis
Kai Pearce Paul / Ethan Havard / Liam Byrne / smithies (On a rotation - who is training / performing better)
Oliver Partington (if underperforming add to above rotation)

Just had a look at him on YouTube, he has a great short kicking game with a few grubbers from ten metres out. At best it will gain us some tries or repeat sets from this massively underused tactic. At worst we hand possession over a metre or so from their own line.
That will do for me.
