Cant remember who but someone did say some time back back we were in talks with Millard along with other clubs, I'm guessing he wouldnt break the bank.

Wouldn't be too concerned if I was Leutele. On the off chance Ayshford wasn't hitting the wrong hole he'd drop his bundle before it mattered.

Be too busy staring at his hair in the mirror to make it that far!
Junior Roqica, without doubt.

Because Junior plays centre and all right....
Ricky has tremendous potential and I still rate him highly. Too many knob ends on here though want to cut him lose after not delivering upon all that talent and getting double digits in they try tally in a season where the whole team was a mess and upon it was acknowledged our halves were rubbish and our structures non existent.
Players should not get a free ride nor a pass on criticism purely on favoritism or potential alone but pulling the trigger on Ricky now would be short sighted and just plain silly
For those that still want to shoot then don't forgot to reload the pistol for Holmes & Gagan

Yeh Matt, I know you brought it up a page back, its just by the time I posted my response to your & others it started a new page, someone actaully said about a week or so ago about Millard, might have been you, is that what you are alluding to?
Agree 100%. He did get a bit too much hype over the move he put on SBW but that's what happens when a sharks outside back does anything of note.
Also our forward pack lacked any go forward and would put the whole team under pressure with kicking and also if we shifter it.

Happy to let Ricky get a go with a squad like we have now, this is as strong as its been for sometime now with decent depth, Ricky is one player who needs to step us this year, a real opportunity for him for him to make this his breakout year, if not he will be a solid first grader, nothing more, nothing less.

I agree, and Souths don't as a rule pick players that can't or don't perform I still believe Leutele has a lot to offer , I think it would be a mistake to let him go

This sums it up well, there were a lot worse performers than leutele in the team last season so I don't know why he gets so much stick. He didn't exactly get much to work with and it wasn't so long ago people were going on how good his left side combo with feki was.
No it's because of his immaculate grooming skills.

I don't understand the Ricky bashing but imo feki is a better option and that's the only reason I'll drop him. Josh Morris and Justin hodges would play like dog **** outside of wade graham and with robbo as a half. We have zero creativity outside of our forwards.our backs this year even though they are the best we have had in awhile will still look poor because of old mate robbo. Barba isn't a good 5/8 to partner Robbo especially with a fullback with zero ball playing skills.
In 2015 we will roll down field easily if our forwards don't get injured but buckle to score trys because of robbo , barba and Gordon. Would have love to have see our current backs outside of carney, even though I hated the fact he couldn't play unless robbo was there he was an actually half who would set up players.
Robbo needs to go even if we play brown or murphy at 7. He brings absolutely nothing to this team and to mention he defends well is a poor excuse because he doesn't save even 1/4 of the amount a half should be setting up . In a game of field possession we will fail miserable and it is gonna be a lot more painful than last year because we have so much more potential
