    He might be a good 5/8 but in the GF when he came on to play centre, I thought he was very ordinary. What was the name of that dude who was cut loose by the Dogs due to a neck injury? Carl or Karl Olo*******. Has he packed it in and decided to call it a day, just not good enough or something else?

    I know that's the plan but is he any good as a 6? He's been a halfback his entire career.

    I can't understand the recruitment of Williams either. He might have been a gun back in the day but now Katoa is far better.

    I remember Isaac Luke. Probably played on 2 seasons too long but was a gun in his prime. In a golden age for #9s.

    It won't be for another at least. It's not uncommon for a player to be on a development deal for 2 years. Though I don't think more than that.

    As the link you provided shows, the club upgraded him to a train and trial deal so they obviously rate him.

    There was one try in this year's series where Creighton comprehensively beat Hammer for a NSW try, I think not to Creighton himself who passed to the winger after beating Hammer. But Creighton is the second best centre in the competition so to only miss him once in a 3 game series is impressive.

    Is Feagai still in the top 30 next year? I'd be very surprised if we see him in first grade again and if he is, he won't be defending with Isaako again. Next year if he is still with us he'll be behind: Herbie Bostock Averillo Isaako Cobbo Naufahu Nonu (possibly) Hammer

    I watched the first half and then when Aus scored in the second to take it to 14-0, I decided I had had enough. With no Dolphins players in the Aus team but one in the near future in the England team, I was going for England.

    I'm sure Jake would play there if the coach told him that's what he wanted. Most players want to play in a spine position if they can. More money.

    6 is the only position we don't have sorted out long term. Kodi has been good but not getting younger. Coach obviously disagrees with me that Averillo has the game to be a good 5/8.

    We don't need a halfback, unless he's a QLD Cup backup, for a long time.

    I forgot these games were even on which was disappointing because especially the NZ-Samoa game was as I would've expected, very good. Just wanted to say, Kurt Donoghue just keeps getting better. LEGEND’S HIGH PRAISE FOR VERSATILE STAR There weren’t too many players across the league who...

    Ricky Stuart didn't not rate George Williams. They fell out, as a number of people do with Ricky apparently largely due to his wife hating Canberra, as a lot of people do. But yeah, I agree he's a really strange signing. Would've been good for the first 2 years before Katoa was ready for first...

    As of this moment, Canberra don't have a halfback.

    That makes sense. Otherwise I would have thought he was a certainty for captain.

    Gilbert was captain. Personally I think Herbie should be. He mustn't be much of a talker otherwise he'd already be captain.

    Plath started this year in the second, he and the team struggled badly. As soon as he moved back to lock, he and the team improved dramatically.
