Bye Bye a 1 minute a game wonder and 79 minute disaster

If Sammut has been released with no pay off, fair enough.
Good player but Wakey can't afford a renegade, with his own agenda.
A team like Wakey needs players working within a structure.
Not much of that been happening so far but obviously Smith has taken the decision that he doesn't want the distraction of Sammut around to interfere with his plans.

Replace with full back.... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_W ... gby_league)

Now that is a top drawer idea.
I assume Smith knows him well enough to decide whether his betting issues are no longer a problem.
It would be a good way back for him too.

Would have kear from london.

Whether Williams would get a VISA is one question and whether he sees it as an opportunity to relaunch his career with a season in SL with Trinity another? Now plays full back instead of wing in NSW Cup, surely SL is a move up from that? Some good footage.... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=82jbqxHJXL4

Williams is shot... Gone... Not worth considering!

That's what a lot will think of him although he is the captain of the NSW cup team and is only 28. It's what Brian Smith sees in the players that'll count.

You may know more than me as I don't see the reserve grade matches....

While we're looking at players who need a way back how about Dane Nielson? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dane_Nielsen Comes with some baggage but it's not unprecedented that he gets a chance to rebuild his career in SL, see Bird, Monaghan, Carney, Leo-Latu.

Whoever we get should displace Miller from the 17.

Don't think Miller did much wrong covering fullback today. Probably could've done with some longer studs in though.
For me the stand out waste of a shirt for quite some time now has been Riley.

We get rid of a player who supposedly brings problems and for this reason some of you are happy to see go to suggest we bring in another who also has baggage. He is also unlikely to get a visa, with regards Williams he is not the player he was after he sustained a string of serious injuries which whatever you think of Smith he cannot repair.

Yes thought Miller was very good at fullback today

Agreed. He's played well each time he's been there, without necessarily looking like a proper fullback!

In the case of Dane Nielson, His issues are off the field and aren't much different to those of Monaghan, Carney, Bird etc who still manage to be great players on the field, which is where we need it.

Sammut was a bad influence off the field and not that great on it, for us at least, so nothing like the names suggested above.
