Keeley has been really poor in the last 1/3 of the season.

not up to fulltime nrl

Letting the Canberra NSW Cup team score 22 and counting is simply unacceptable! With defence like this, we definitely didn't deserve to be in the finals.

Not yet. Hopefully after another pre-season of training and weights he will be.

Game has really fizzled out in the second half.

Red · Sunday at 3:52 PM

Honestly, I'm a bit disappointed by this. Shouldn't have let them score 24.

Whoever is defence coach needs to be moved on & a change made there

I just wonder, if Fuller is fullback next year, Hammer and Herbie centres, what is going to happen to Averillo? He'd be an excellent backline utility but probably wants to start.

Fuller has to be in any starting 13 if he’s fit & available who misses out doesn’t matter Fuller is there

With the emergence of Naufahu & development of Nonu I don’t care if they trade in Cobbo & Feagai to sign 2 more props can never have enough props

and leave strong defenders out no way , bad enough hammer is risky on d trai and him the team will be way worse if not getting any ball

we still need more than those two as cover

Get a new defensive coach the bloke there now isn’t up to teaching defence.

Fuller has bucket loads of heart and never scared to put his body on the line. Just get the right defensive systems in place.

Fuller was the Dolphins best player in 3 of the 4 games he played.

Is it Woolf's brother? The defensive coach I mean.

still wont happen, woolfs done right thing , he needs players like trai n others to be back up players

putting trai in just because he gives fans warm fuzzies is dumb ( if the woolfs wanted him there full time he would be simple as that)

The highest offensive team in the comp this year and the 9th most in NRL history. A 12-12 record and 9th place finish is their best result in their young history. Jamayne Issako wins his second scoring title in three years. Hammer runner up in tries scored.This club is headed for special things. They will win a title (or make a GF at least) before the end of the decade.

Agree with you the one nagging Fuller is the same ‘person’ who said Kurt Dongohoe wouldn’t be at the club next year only for Donga to re sign and play 22 games. A shoe in to win coaches award.

Fuller if not for ACL would have started in round one. He showed how good he is once he returned. If he’s fit & available he’s in any top 13 and so is Donga.

theres n way they going drop jake, they would droped him along time ago if they were

again thats why we got 30 not 17) as the rest come in as injury cover same with the young guy filling in for jake he knows hes not in the 17 next year unless injurys

The bloke had no off season due to surgery. He'll be fine next year and only going to get better with age and experience. The fact GC said not up to NRL gives me even more confidence after Donga's season this year.

Normally I would be critical letting in 24 against such poor opposition after being up some big leads but the reality was very hard to be motivated when your season officially ended on Friday night and your opponents not even bothering to put their best available team on the field. The day had a real carnival and festive style atmosphere.
