Hopes for 2019

[joeboy]

* Cartwright is not the coach, we need to clear all the remnants of this disastrous year
* the fat trainer is given a bronze handshake
* Lane backflips and is still with us
* walker and Taupau commit to manly and walker finds his best form in the centres again
* our defensive structures get a major overhaul
* our fitness and mental fortitude is addressed
* Joel Thompson adds a few more strings to his bow and learns how to tackle. He is a good experienced clubman, but he really needs to play better
* we secure better depth than M. Wright, Parker, JetSki, perrett, winterstein, Hodkinson. the above all disappear from our books so there is no chance they play again
* suli gets fit and has 6 months to show us he is worth persevering with
* kelly keeps improving and new structures allow him to get early ball, Tom is taught to not always run his centres out of space.
* zorba relocates to Siberia and is no longer able to speak or write or communicate in any way
* Siro had an injury free year and repays the faith

So many more, but that will do for now

Mine in much more concise: The Penns sell up.

 

[Harvies elbow]

Now for the big name signings,,,

 

[Heckenberg]

we win the comp

 

[Jigzkiller]

In all my years following the team by February I always convinced myself we could win the comp after this season and with the "rumoured" new coach I will have trouble convincing myself we can make the 8.

We are in massive trouble if we dont get rid of at least 10 players from our squad.

We must add a couple of old heads like Norman and Jennings to our backline, we should of grabbed the Morris twins. We need wingers x 2 or 3.

We also need at least one other forward, to replace Lane and probably another.

Changing the coach alone isnt going to cut it, this is a bottom 6 roster. It has a heap of potential but must be added to each year.

So adding a dickhead and 3 x 30+ outside backs will solve our issues?? Lol.....

Hate to be the bearer of bad news. But all those players are contracted for next year haha

 

[court83]

No...

no hope for 2019

 

[EagleFlys]

With Cartwrong @ the helm, 2019 will be a repeat of this year.

I really can't imagine us being much different next year. Sure, Elgey may help, but who is going to fix the tackling problem, who can teach these guys to hold the ball, who is going to get this team spirit back with the never say die attitude?

I don't think Cartwright can do this!

And with our highly paid superstars on such big coin, how can we afford some quality backup players? I'm a bit worried about the direction our club is heading. A few early season injuries, and it will be "groundhog day" for us again next year. We live in hope...

 

[niccipops]

Tackling.

Well it worked before.

Orford, Bell, B Kennedy, and dickheads like Hall (one of the biggest in NRL history), TRex, Monaghan and Wolfman.

Or just keep Suli, Parker, Jorge, Wright and Brown and co.

You pick.

 

[eagerbeaver]

Lets reverse things - apart from Blake Green and Siro we had mostly the same side in 2017 to make the finals. So there is enough talent there to be competitive..
Just need to get the front office stuff sorted and the rest will follow..

Fitness will fix most of those issues

Agree with everything you say except Norman and Jennings. That’s like replacing one lemon with another.
