I know injuries played a part but in my opinion we still had some promising signs. The following players i expected more from.

1. Wade Graham - I love Wado but we needed a Statw of Origin performance from him

2. Woods - just thought the younger players out shone him. Prob played too many minutes.

3. Duran - hoping for more. Didn't go down his side much but still...

We go on to next season, the boys are young and will be better next year.

Yeh I think the young ones will be better for it. Make or break for the older ones and players like Nikora.

Proud of the boys tonight. They kept making the tackles sting right up until the final whistle.

We don't really play our centres into the game, no point spending more on them unless we want to change how SJ has been playing and I don't think we do.

alot of positives from the season.
have to build on them
discovered some good main stayers in the crop; rudolf, talakai, hunt, wingers that score sexy tries, brailz developing nicely, ferris, SJ was in form, wilton looked good

sort the hammy issues out!!!

Right edge with Ramien/Nikora was disappointing. Not sure if Ramien's playing injured but he's hardly done anything all year.
Looks slow. Nikora needs tackling practice and another 5-10 kg, or replace him.

Jesse has been off this year, though the ball hasn’t been going to him at all or not early enough for him to do something. It’s an error of our ball players.
Kennedy 13-15 games in FG - wow give him some game time and pre season under his belt

We have a lot of youth playing.

OK , happy to give Kennedy the first 4 games next year to showcase his off season improvement .
BUT , if he's dishing up the same then something has to give .Can Ferris play fullback ?

Ferris has played fullback when he was younger and filled in there but think he’s more a centre now

I see him more as Dugan’s successor in the 3 jersey anyway.

Yes true .
I was just thinking next year whilst Duges there.
If Kennedy doesn't step up

I don’t think that’s the answer. I think the only real answer we have is to try to sign some proper competition for him.

Do we have the $$$ to spend next year ?
