its already been posted, the correct way in the correct thread
One might think that Rumours and Player Recruitment might actually be the CORRECT thread ?
We are talking about both recruiting Benji Marshall and re-recruitment of Andrew Fifita .

i was giving him **** about this on saturday when we were watching NSW cup.

He told me that kid has a troubled home life, and probably isnt related to Locke

When I was at school there was a kid with the surname of Haynes and he told me he was Desmond's nephew. Had me believing him for a while too the little turd.

Dont think its harsh, if you have been remotely satisfied with a full back who has 0 tries and doesnt attempt to catch the ball, good for you.

I expect more.

How many tries do our outside bands and halves have, combined? Take out the anomaly of that four try effort against the weak warriors and how many do you have?

All I'm pointing out I'd that you're looking in the wrong place for a scapegoat.

In your head, rent free
Not a scape goat, he just shouldnt be fullback anymore

He offers no second phase play, no support play and he is slowing down

He'd be better on the wing

I said the same thing and people went against me. No offence to Gordon but the game has outgrown him as a full back. Would make a good winger and even a decent centre besides carney because his defence is good

Well now you have snowman on your side, you will never be wrong.

I don't have a problem with Gordon as a fullback as such, but in our side with so little creativity, I'd prefer it if we had someone there that could ball play a bit more.

If we had 2 creative halves and some gun centres then it would be OK. But with our current line up it's not the best use of our resources.

Agree slide, the Roosters last year (not so much this year) didn't need the ball playing fullback because they had others doing it. Mini gave them a good start to the set and safety at the back.
