for experience, contribution and cap hit i would have kept foran and moved dce into the utility role and back up half for his last season. allowing schuster to play six and moving foran to the right. Foran and Tom as joint captains. cheap and solid, . foran seemed to have the respect and the teams harmony was tested early when he was moved on to accommadate schusters manager. the team would move on quicker than DCE id suspect
Remember people opinions were sought, anyways
by now the dolphins would have got desperate enough and we could have probably offloaded DCE with little freight.
that would allow us about another 1 mill considering forans wage , probably induce luke thomson to come over with dogs paying some freight freight leaving some handy money to address depth at hooker
if not a fit josh Hodgson who is a bit of a hog and wants to do it all from the ruck would be bloody handy considering a reluctance to get involved by our 7 unless there is space,
oh and a 13 that forced jake to prop and away from the link role. Its no good. jake is paid too much, but trying to get long creative minutes out of him to balance that, is an issue. compounding that is he is a defensive specialist , considering we get less ball that quality sides and our props have mobility concerns its important, prop rotation or 80 minute back row tackling machine for jake
Its why we struggle with the croker hooker dilema, we WANT a scooting nippy scheming 9
but NEED one that is rock solid and makes 55 tackles due to balance, ball control and kick structure
And world peace,
