T- Rex signs with Blacktown

[BOZO]

Maybe Des is looking for the slowest backline to have ever graced the NRL?

01. Brendan Elliott
02. Jorge Taufua
03. Moses Suli
04. Brad Parker
05. Tony Williams
06. Trent Hodkinson

Dear lord hahaha. What's happened to our club to end up with players like these?

Good lord !!!
What happened to our back line last year when they nearly won the spoon ? Are you still laughing ?
I believe this lot that Include speedsters like Garrick , funa , young Hoppa and Elgey will be an improvement

Fair enough. I don't. Full strength:

01. Tom Trbojevic vs. Tom Trbojevic
02. Jorge Taufua vs. Jorge Taufua
03. Brian Kelly vs. Moses Suli
04. Dylan Walker vs. Brad Parker
05. Akuila Uate vs. Reuben Garrick
06. Lachlan Croker vs. Trent Hodkinson
07. DCE vs. DCE

Where the upgrades there mate?

You have left Elgey out as well mate .

Tom is a star and only still young and can only improve
Taufua is a confidence player . Under the Trent years there was no confidence in the team . We will see improvement
Kelly stats confirm he was one of the leaders in our turstyle defence . Des did not go out of his way to retain him and that says more than what I can ever say
Suli is 18 and still growing maturing and developing . We will see improvement
Parker is 23 years of age and watching the 2 trials he did not miss tackles and drop balls like last season . That is an improvement
Garrick has more pace than Kelly can ever dream and at 21 he will keep improving
Many good judges say Hopper is the next best thing . What X factor stuff are made of !
Last season is no bench mark or an upgrade to our 2019 squad .

You call our back a turd . You are entitled to your opinion but I disagree . I believe Des can "polish" and get the best out of our back line and he has plenty of potential to work with ......
Tom Turbo is a Super star ,
Tuafua when playing with confidence he is a power house
Speaking of powerhouses Suli at 18 years of age and is still growing
Garrick is a young player with evasive skill and plenty of speed
Hoppa has plenty of good judges saying he will be the next big thing
Funa , is a bright young prospect and so is Anderson
Parker also has improvement in his as well .
Elliot is a reliable player that wont disappoint
As for Walker, prior to the 18 moths where he has been injured and playing out of position at 5/8 was NRL centre of the year and 24 years of age he is at his peak at his career

The moral of the story ? ...........
You cannot polish a turd but you can polish capable football players

I see a future with Funa, Suli,Garrick, and Anderson, and hopefully with more first grade experience they can go to another level.
Of course Tom T is a star, but we really need a lot more than what George T ,Parker and Walker have been offering over the past two years ,and it wouldnt upset me to see them go

Fair enough mate . None of us really have a crystal ball but by the end of the year all those players mentioned will make it crystal clear to Des who he will retain as part of his rebuild dream team

I know one thing.....if he plays for Blacktown......they'll have to change their name from the Workers.
