Beau. ****ing. Ryan.

Words can't describe how much I hate that knob.
Enough to create a thread with a title designed purely to give you the chance to say so 😂

Could have definitely lived without Beau... Tough one... Barrett Springs to mind

I thought him too but doesn’t really hit the player requirement.

Not that it’s actually possible but it’d be risky to rewrite anything from pre Premiership! Dank has to stay.

On a semi related note though, could have done with Xerri’s embarrassment and costing us Morris.
If he comes back and is actually decent will be doubly painful.

Can they describe why?

Yep.

Might have gone differently had Flanno not been sacked, but SJ's whole time at the Sharks was a flop for mine.
He was okay but not what we hoped for. His excitement to be back at warriors doesn’t sit well.

There’s always the sliding door what ifs if we hadn’t signed him too. Moylan stays at 6 where he started getting decent and his legs hold together while someone like a Papenhyuzen or CNK coming in at fb
(Until Drinky got injured in preseason he was Storm FB #1 option and Pap was surplus to requirements if anyone doesn’t recall)

Matt Moylan
Fair, not like he’s done much - I do think some of that is bad luck as we signed him to 6 and then moved him late in preseason the next year. But overall far from what we would have hoped.
A bit of a Bradbury impression to still even be in the team between Chad, SJ, Metcalf all leaving and Trindall taking a while to secure the jersey.

The smooth transition from Chad bash to Moylan bash doesn’t give me any confidence we wouldn’t just be hyper focused on someone else instead though

Haha, obviously love that side, but I can't remember being as frustrated by a player. He was just simultaneously so big and such a pea heart at times.
Built like Tarzan played like Jane.
Never rated big Sam one bit. Was a plodder.
