I do agree that Agar is a large part of it, but I don't think the above players are good enough for a top4 side anymore. All (except for Tansey who's obviously new) just haven't done it consistently for 2 years now.

My team when all fit would be...

1. Horne
2.Callderwood
3.Briscoe
4.Yeaman
5.Tansey
6.Turner
7.Long
8.OMeley
9.Houghton
10.Moa
11.Manu
12.Fitzgibbon
13.Whiting
14.Cusack
15.Mcshane
16.Washbrook
17.Luaki

drop the fekin lot of em and give the under 20s a chance....cant do any worse

No Berrigan?

Over rated over paid would rather have houghton and mcshane 2 for the price of 1

a coach with no ideas,, who is supposed to lead from the top is what we need,,the whole squad barring 2 didnt want to play today end of!!!

A winning mentality who players will actually respect

cusack,dowes,fitzgibbon,berrigan out
scruton,c smith,mateo,lms id all sign.
promote some youngsters obvious ones are nicklas,aldous and cunningham and im sure theres more.

id play horney at full back and drop tansey as a squadplayer.
berro is a great player and i really do rate him but the amount of times hes injured and is age id rather go out and get c smith whos the best hooker in the world and with the storm troubles at the mo theyd be willing to let him go.scruton and lms for the fairywinks in dowes and cusack very average these 2. and let fitz go great pro he is and puts 100% in everything he does but with him been a quota player id rather get mateo whos brilliant and can play either 6 or 13 and that then would allow whiting to go and play 13 that he deserves with washy as back up. long at 7, mateo at 6 and whiting 13 and horne at 1 that would be alot more creative and with tansey as back up as well when theres injuries which is very much certain.








oh yeh and wayne bennet for agar hahaha

He played 29 out of 32 games in 2008, 22 out of 28 last season and the first 11 games this season.

we might get lms.

fair enough that he played less games seems like it anyway but how many times over the last 2years has he played were hes 50% fit or needs injections ect ect weve just never seen the real best from berro as he always looks like hes half fit apart from the begining of this season but now hes injured. anyway id still rather let berro go and get cameron smith

I'm guessing we have around £500k of salary cap sat in the stands with berrigan, long and fitzgibbon. What sort of idiot risks that much of the cap on 3 players over 30?

I agree with most of the sentiment on here except Berrigan who has clearly (for me) tried giving his all despite severe adversity. He has played when he has clearly not been fit. How many could or have said that over the past 3 seasons?

As always though I hope in this instance the club go with the cheap option and get rid of the coach. Far cheaper than cancelling half a dozen players contracts. Just so long as they don't appoint the great saviour "uncle Dennis" who has clearly brought the square root of FA with him from Australia.
