For a while, Toby looked like he was going to be good. Too bad he hasn't kicked on.

Was labelled as one of if not our best forward before his injury now he's ready for the scrap heap, things change quickly
Severely lacking match fitness, gets that back and there's no reason why he can't get back to his best
Should have been building up his minutes from the bench but unfortunately we don't have the pack to do that

Yeah the injuries through the middles have been awful this year. Only really Kaufusi, McInnes, Williams and recently Hazleton have been consistently playing. No surprise that the later 3 have been some of our best. Our props are better than their form shows, but they haven't been able to string consistent time together.

Thats it. he was a beast heading into the finals last year. Has been out for 13 weeks and comes back into a struggling side.
He's down around 32nd on my list for reasons why we suck
We've really needed a middle to step up this season and go to the next level
Instead we've had numerous injury/suspension issues to these guys
BHU, Rudolf and Finucane being the three main ones who have shown form the rest of the pack can build off of in the past - 13, 7 and 12 games out of 18
Drop to the next 3 you have Hunt (12) but at least McInnes and Kaufusi have been regulars...with 15 each (one playing well)
Jack Williams (16 games) who arguably should be behind all the above as a middle (despite some good form in previous years) is instead in the top couple.
Could be a contributing factor the two with best form have played the most and equal second most games.

He is NSW Cup at best unfortunately
Edit: or like one of the star strikers in the English championship, but then duds when they play in the EPL. Too good for the 2nd division, not up to scratch for the top

Very harsh to write off Rudolf at the moment I feel, but maybe he needs another week with the Jets to get some more match fitness back into his legs. Or even switch him and Hazelton around and bring him off the bench in reduced minutes.
Written every other experienced prop off.
All suffering same issue of none of them can find form because they are part of an out of form pack.
The more of them step up the easier it is for the rest of them to follow suit.
Discipline and ball control issues really don't help.

and my pet hate, the unnecessary 4th tackle flop
Both were mediocre and would often be let go, but frustrating to see Oregon pull it out two weeks in a row.
They also got a 5th tackle 6 again which are extremely rare, can usually get away with a quick nap on top of tackler on last

An out of form pack that hasn't had their "full strength" side once this year. I know the same probaly could be said about every other team, but still... I actually thought this week would have been close to the best team all year before the axe was swung and tieg got injured.
We all have one of "those days," can the same be said about a team having "one of those years."

Out of form pack is a bit of a stretch for mine.
I dunno how you can be out of form as a middle forward. Simplest job in the game. Make your metres, tackle efficiently, don’t drop the pill or give away penalties.
He appears to have added a fair bit of size while he has been off.
I have a feeling it may of be intentional to improve his game, but doing so will take him longer to get his match fitness up to where it needs to be but with BHU and Hunt going down in the mean time hasn’t given him the time he needs.
