If his defense couldn't be worse than Wright's and he's a better runner, I say get him in.

I say a couple more games and he will be ready. It can't be any worse then Wright. I had high hope for J.Wright but its just not there maybe a couple weeks back in NSW cup will give him a shake up. Raitini looked pretty good yesterday you can see alot of the 7's style rugby in him but he will be ok I think.

tom cruise crossed with stapo. he isnt ready yet. i dont think he will be ready this season.

So name a ****ing winger we have other than ryan who is ready for first grade?

Stapo? no.
J Wright? **** no, if Goodwin didnt nearly die last year he wouldnt have been a first grade regular for the dogs either.

the only player we have who is putting up a fight this year is Fifita.

Or the other alternative to getting some talent on the field right now is Gards to FB and Gordon to wing. that combo is a billion times better than Gordon and wright.

This guy isn't ready for first grade. He was caught out a couple times in d and in attack hardly came in at all against Newtown.

wright played a grand final so he must be good. raitini would be a turnstile in defence atm.

yeah he must be great cos he played in a grand final.

remember he wasnt first string, Bryson Goodwin did a spleen. Wright wouldnt have been there otherwise.

He impressed me yesterday. He did some good things and the try he scored was great, had a fair bit to do. But he probably isn't quite ready just yet. Next year with experience he could be very good.
