I think Isaako has been really good.
He's been alright. A bit mistake prone and finds himself out of position at times, but I'm a big fan of his contributions. But, if Cobbo is switched on, he'll be impossible to keep out of the lineup as we all know what he is capable of.

I agree. And can they keep Nonu out for any longer? Fuller isn't so young. He only has one, maybe 2 years left as a fullback because he relies on his boundless energy, speed and strength which are the first things to go as one ages. While the best fullbacks are as good playmakers as runners. But I wouldn't be against letting Hammer go in order to make way for Fuller, Cobbo and Nonu.

Just saying if it happened, I wouldn't be upset.

It's disappointing but there really isn't too much to say. The injuries have become just too much. Too much to cover for.

Though I would like to say last week and against this week were the worst games Niko and Hammer have played for us.

Can we keep Nonu out of NRL for another year? Is a backline like this possible?
  1. Fuller
  2. Isaako
  3. Nonu
  4. Herbie
  5. Bostock
  6. Averillo
  7. Katoa
So they play one bad game they worked there ass off a lot of games when others ain't ffs stop changing side just because one bad game don't mean they need be dropped

Nope. Hammer and Niko have had 2 shockers in a row.

Well, FFS if Woolf rates them as best in those positions, I'm happy to go with that. But, FFS I'm allowed to speculate on other options as well. FFS

If Woolf rated the team better with Averillo at 5/8, I'm sure he would move Averillo to 5/8. If he doesn't so that, he thinks the team is better with Niko at 5/8, FFS. I continue to think Averillo might make a very good 5/8. 2 poor games in a row from Niko has me wondering even more.
