      I like Aiden and Conner just as much as the next fan.

      But Guerra is approaching twilight of his career and commands biggish dollars as an Origin player. It's smart cap management to move him on now, not to mention his form has been up and down. There will be more downs than ups from here on in.

      As for Connor, the only 2 positions that really suit his skillset are Fullback and running Five Eighth. Doesn't have the organisational skills, kicking skills or even passing game to be a top shelf 7 at this stage. And with Tedesco in the no1 and Keary in the no6, there is just no room as good as he is sadly. Square peg, round hole.
      Very well put.

      Connor does not have the ability to pass or kick at speed or under pressure. Teddy and Keary are our No.1 and No.6. Hopefully Pearce is relegated to the No.14

        You just made me moist.

          Pearce should've been punted after the Australia Day incident
          Unfortunately for Robbo his love affair and loyalty for the protected Pearce will eventually cost him his job!!

              Would not be bloody surprised if Souths have a crack at Connor and offer him the #6 spot with Adam Reynolds in the halves. Souths are doing a spring clean out as we speak and who have they signed on besides Dane Gagai for next season ? Not much !

              It may be a long-shot but Ladies and Gentlemen you read it here first !!!

                well said. I actually see Watto in the same mould as Craig Wing. A jack of all trades suited to a halves role but an expert in none. Brilliant bench strike power but not much more than that.

                  Agree but it's very hard to use those players under current interchange rules

                    Harsh on Wingy.

                    He was a jack of all trades but also a GREAT hooker.

                    He's sort of faded into memory has ole Wingy but at his peak at hooker he was a ****ing weapon.

                      Wingy could have been anything if not for Stuart's love affair with Finchy imo.

                        Hooker was his best position.

                        Though we should have stuck with the winning Freddy-Wing combo and signed a hooker instead of Finchy.

                        No biggie... only probably cost us a 3peat.

                          Yeah you are probably right but I reckon he was much more valuable a bench utility. He did go very well at 9 for sure.

                          Wasnt trying to be harsh in Wingy. I think my praise came across wrong.

                            I think Connor is gonna play 5/8 at the spooners. They have signed Ponga for the FB role

                              Agreed. The Wing/Freddy combo were our winning halves in the 2002 GF. Really should have stayed that way in 2003.

                              ​​As much as I don't like Cam Smith, but imagine if we signed him back in 2002-03 to play hooker instead of Finchy.

                                I cant understand all the hype surrounding Ponga. What have I missed?
