    Agree that with Anasta in the backrow, you can not afford another ballplayer.
    Cherro unfortunately looks like one of the unlucky ones, I think its a mistake to think of him as a piece moving forward

      Not big enough for a prop.

        I think he can be quite effective up the middle. He has good footwork, can use the ball both before and at the line.

        Would be great coming off the bench.

          He mauled the Dragons earlier this year. Won it for them.

          Besides, we're always interested in Second Rowers. We're the Second Rower specialists. The more the merrier.

            Good to see NSW base their SOO on our secret formula...

              If you have a backrow with a high workrate this would be effective, but with Anasta in the backrow and Topou in the front row, it doesn't leave much for the grunt work in defence.

                Always think about farkndrongo when I see this guy.

                I wonder if the boys would just stand around these days.

                  I loved Toups as a Rooster but it would be foolish and spendthrift of us to even look at him.

                  He shoudl have gone to the GC

                            Never liked him as a Rooster TBH (he was nothing more than a reserve grader with dodgy ball skills who battled for a place in first grade.)
                            How he's on 400k a season puzzles me. Then again Sandow's on more reportedly - it's a free market!

                              i thought Toops served us well in his time here. In his last season here he was virtually the only player who actually could play-make and create try scoring opportunities. Pearce and Anasta were that hopeless (this can still be argued by some)

                              ... but i think his time is finished with the club and he wouldn't fit into the team with the large number of Second Rowers we currently possess..

                                Reserve grader?
