Jack broke his hand?

Jesus. H. Christ.

Started with a 28 man squad.

Lost 3 now to season ending injures....down to 25

Punted Lussick......24

Lost Taufua, now GoJetSki.....22

This is truly incredible.

This cap s*it needs to be sorted ASAP so we can sort some players.

and parker 6-8 weeks

M Wright could miss a week with his head knock

may not even have 21 to choose from next week
 
They’ve never had balls that lot, just jobs for the boys!!

Just on that point... Remember how they threatened a player boycott last year.

However when a "testimonial game" was announced with $700k+ going directly to the head of the RLPA and the next most influential player... all went quiet.

Yeah mate Parker slipped my mind!

But its entorely Barrett's fault.....

Granted there are some things he needs to improve on, but show me ANY team in the comp that will be as successful with a 21/22 man squad against 28/29/30 man squads.

Depth plays a MASSIVE part in a teams success.
 
Only positive is theres still 3 teams below us atm. Dogs are pretty crap. Parra is crap. Cowboys a mystery. I belive we still have 17 players that can regroup and win a few. Getting jorge back will help too.
 
How about we buy around 6 really good players on big money.

Get Carney, a couple of descent 2nd rowers from England. Get Radradra back from rugby and maybe one of the All Black wingers.

Then we cop the points loss from the NRL but we win heaps of games.

It would be a ratings winner for 9 and Fox. We would get international coverage. We would be talked about all year in the media. Probably give the Penns enough in terms of sponsorship that they could honestly mount a decent campaign the coming years.

Just remember, there are no right or wrong answers in brainstorming.
 
We are in a real hole. No doubt.
But so are the Panfers.
They are also down to about 21 fit players.
Yet they are still managing to find a way to win.
I guess it just highlights the difference in our original rosters.
If we had Maloney, it'd be a whole different story.
 
He looks very strong, some players may just be brittle. Or just have a lot of bad luck, it happens.
I like what he's done in his few games for us (and I don't think the hit on Thurston was half as bad as some made out)
 
Keep him on minimum wage, you need a few willing to play at the bottom end.

Find a replacement for Brown and we should be fine in the backrow
