I didnt put it down to 1 of the other. Feki has already extended...... so thats not an issue. I just dunno why everyone thinks feki would be a huge loss if we ever lost him

He'd only be a loss if the bloke who replaced him did a worse job (on field, off field, cap wise etc.)

I think we get more tomorrows and bang for our buck with Feki than we would a Morris. At the same age obviously its no necks hands down, but they ain't what they used to be.

I dont think anyone thinks morris would be a feki replacement. But as i said, if we've seen the best Feki can produce, id love to see us find an upgrade on him at some point.

If he could catch a bit better and work out that dive for the corner so his feet are the last thing to touch down I'd be pretty happy.

The problem in finding a really good winger is he usually has his eyes on being a fullback.

And thats purely because of money.

I agree with you about his dive technique. 9 times outta 10 he stays in but **** nearly every try he scored go to video ref cos that dive is so awkward

I am pretty sure that BMOZ has admitted to struggling with the running required of a fullback over the course of a game , that could of been because on injuries, or age I am not sure.

He is undoubtedly a quality finisher and in his games at fullback has looked very good.

A downside is that he is not a bring the ball out of his own end "Flanno style" , like Bird, Holmes and Leutele. Hard straight and fast.

Could mean a tweak in style if these rumours are true.

LURKER Rumour . obviously we'd need a replacement prior to any Super league deal .


The actual article

English glamour club Warrington has made a dramatic late bid to sign disgruntled Sharks five-eighth James Maloney.

Maloney is under contract to the Sharks for next season but has not been happy with his pay packet and has been on the radar of the Knights, Rabbitohs and several other NRL clubs.

But the entry of Warrington into the race ups the ante and the veteran five-eighth, who turns 32 next season, could pick up a three-year final payday from the cashed up Wolves.

Maloney’s manager met with Warrington officials just a couple of days ago and a firm deal could be on the table soon.

If the little bitch did leave, I'd be much happier that he was playing in Super League rather than against us.

It would be disappointing if Luetele did leave. I do think Morris is a pretty good replacement if he is to play on the wing. That would allow ramien to play his preferred center position.

Feki
Ramien
Dugan
Morris

Is a pretty handy back 5

Leutele has been getting closer and closer to being a complete centre over the last 2 seasons.

His defence in particular has improved. It's not only his own hard work but a credit to our coaching staff.

Be a real shame to lose him now, but family comes first. If he needs to go, he needs to go. Morris would be a great replacement if that's what happens.

So Paulo re-signs and latimore, heino and taga gone also.

Think this is good, the mix between youth and experience will be more balanced next year. Getting excited for 2018 already
