We need a hard forward

[Headless Chook]

What about the ginger ninja from newcastle joel edwards i think his name is.... hits hard with intent and likes the ruff stuff

That guy will play Origin within the next couple of years given a decent run with injuries. He's like Nigel Plumb, except he can play!

ye does the yukk stuff but his really good at it Exactly what we need..... he hits and the players he hits stay hit you can tell they feel it

[crikey chris]

Cam Smith. Pay him what he wants.

David Stagg maybe worth approaching considering he has been coming of the bench lately, although that may change now with Moore gone

Weren't we discussing hard men....not powder puffs who get their stats up by being third man in to complete a tackle!

You stick to selling cars!

Someone like Ennis or (too predictably) Gallen.

Sort out our lack of mental and physical mettle.

Love them or loathe them, they hold a team together.

I'd love to see Ennis play for Easts.

Good Freddy....nooooo!!!!
We've got a hard forward....he's injured at the moment.

Some of us had moved on too discussing players who could imho do Anasta's share of the tackling

I'd rather a forward who can offload

hardness, whatever that means exactly, is overrated

FPN, Masoe, Arona, Ryles, Anasta, Symonds etc can all offload.

They should be doing more of it.

We had 20 offloads against Souffs. More than any other team.

We need the Kenny Powers of Rugby League.

Marty is the man. He has ticker and brains.

I don't think individual players are the problem, just the game plan, balance & attitude of our pack.

Josh Perry & Jason King were two of the softest props in the game until they matured under Hasler, they've never shown the ability to play outside of that team at rep level but put them in that pack and they know their role. When Ryles & Myles got us going forward on Saturday and Pearce was pinning them (Souffs) in their own half everyone jumped on board, it's all about attitude there's enough talent in this forward pack to be a great forward pack if they want to. Smith just needs to get the balance right and get them working together rather than individually.
