It's got me why a lot of people want robson at hooker, he does everything at snails pace so we're gonna be even less productive and creative out of dummy half.

I didn't say I wanted Robson at hooker.
I said if necessary, meaning injuries etc.
I think McCrone will add more to the team at half than Robson.

Koro has speed to burn but has bigger defensive deficiencies in comparison to any of our current wingers.

Robbo would be the slowest hooker in history.

The game is getting faster and faster every season. We are getting slower and slower

That would add so much to our team. Even if we just got Ennis and Mcrone I would be happy.

I want him here because our wingers are so fast.. not!

I remember when we used to cop long range intercepts and loose balls. Isaac Gordon chased every bastard down. The little bastard was so quick.

All I see now is bloody snail Robson chasing the guys.

He may have all the plans in the world. But if canberra sign mansour it shows plans dont always work.

There is still 15 other clubs in the market for good players all the time, and a salary cap. Gould wont have a team on young talent forever. He's displaying them now and teams will start poaching

You never will be able to keep everyone but the trick is to always have someone coming through to take another player's place. Penrith don't want to lose Mansour but they also know that he is going to earn good coin and they have players like DWZ (who is being considered the best junior they've had since Fittler), Waqa Blake, Jennings, Moss coming through.

id be happy with this but think the 1st two are priorities over mccrone, unless of course we can ship Robson off, lets face it if robbo is here next year he will be our starting halfback

Yeah, I don't think the club have any intention of finding another half.

Looking at Benji seemed like a promising sign that they could see the need for change, but I get the feeling that that had more to do with his name than his actual superiority to Robbo. I can't see us buying a superior but low profile half.

I think it was you slide that said the other day that robson was purchased in 2012 as back up, fast forward to 2015 and he's most likely still first choice halfback. Depressing
