Are our forwards tough enough

[bondi.boy]

Says alot about recruitment, the club is more interested in edge backrowers rather than investing in some good big and strong middle third props that can own the middle, look at Souths this year and the go forward they get from the Burgess brothers... We need something like that,

We do indeed.

Are the Burgess boys back in favour?

1 good season every 5 years.

Like I said "THIS " year.... That's the go forward we need and this year yes they are back in favor, big bodies hitting the line hard bending and breaking the defensive line.... This year I would take any of the three over Napa..

We need TPJ AND Taupau next year. Naps and Aubs can go bye byes.

The problem seems to me to be our completion rate not our go forward and our attack seems too linear with no offloads or getting enough quality ball to our strike powers. We are too predictable. But our errors is what is costing us most. No matter who we have if those aren’t fixed we won’t be winning anything anytime soon.

I agree we are too predictable when we move the ball wide. Our 2nd rowers never look to offload after contact. Just a wide running hit up. That means our centres always receive the ball before defence is committed and have to make breaks for themselves. We could use an SBW

I actually thought our forwards were plenty tough enough last night. Made heaps of good hard tackles. Errors and sin bins did the damage
