Why is fitzy picking Williams over tracey

Tracey isn't a forward, we are short on forwards. Tracey doesn't really have a role in the team anymore at full strength, not as a starter and not from the bench. He is depth for the backline now

Williams ball carries and tackling have actually been pretty good but all these errors tonight and all those penalties in past games are gunna see him back in reggies if he doesn't sort that stuff out immediately. There are alot of forward options for us when everyone is fit so he might find it hard to force his way back into the 17

Didn't let us down in defense though. 27 tackles for no misses is pretty impressive when you are having a bad one with the ball and prob not feeling the best mentally. Maybe was trying to make amends.

The errors are just so fundamental I can appreciate the frustration. He managed to get his hands sorted once before and became more reliable. We're going to need that again ASAP as we don't have anyone else to bring in for a fortnight at least.

He's had one good season (2021 from memory). Too early to judge, and we need big bodies right now, but he's back to reserve grade if we're at full strength I reckon.

Couple of mistakes aside, I thought he did alright. He's a powerful runner for what seems like a small bloke. Funnily enough, he looked a lot taller tonight. Wouldn't mind seeing him take kafusi's spot next week and tell him to run as hard as he can for 15-20 mins
Kaufusi played well
Williams is ordinary.
You really want Williams instead ?

Didn't realise this bloke has played 80 odd games. If he hasn't sorted these issues out by now he never will. Think it's time to let him go at the end of his contract. Or see if anyone is interested in taking him early.

I’d be re signing him on 200k or I’m moving him on

Soro is four years older than Jack and was a late bloomer. Jack is at the age, 26, where he could put it all together. He just has to cut the errors. The rest of his game is above average.

Knights looking to sign Soro for next year, and could be cheap. That’s why I suggested him as a possibility.

There’s a few club looking at Sorrenson for next season.

Knights, Manly, Canberra, Titans and Dogs have all shown interest.

Personally I think he should chase the money. He’s won a comp, deserves to try set himself up for the future with a decent pay day. Is a good player and could get around 500k a season from a desperate side I reckon.

Would be surprised if he can get that at this stage of his career, but he absolutely should chase that cash.

Jack was really good start of last year and the year before. Prepared to give him time. Hunt is the one in most danger for mine
