Roosters agree to terms with Wakefield Trinity speedster Lewis Murphy

[RoosterFanNZ]

Hope he goes well, looks very thin. Which is why he gives off the joe ‘Bambi’ burgess vibes.

could turn out to be an absolute cracker and a long term tupou replacement. So fingers crossed

Bit concerning that we have signed this bloke off the back of his speed and agility only for him to do an ACL... still super young though so hope to see him do well although not expecting much.

Teddy came back well from his two.

If he makes first grade we’ll have two genuine speedsters with him and Young.

I would have thought wingers would be low on the list of what the club needs. Look at who we have: Toupu, Suaalii (who is a winger at this stage of his career) Billy smith Corey Allen Jaxon Paulo and probably a couple in the reggies.
The team lacks an organising half, someone with a boot that can turn a team around and a goal kicker. We have three running halves in Walker , Keary and Manu but none of them are organisers. We have part time Goal kickers none of the ilk of Cleary, Reynolds, Moses and in fact most of the other teams. Our longest kicker is Drew and he is not in the side when all troops are available and I feel that they don't let him kick much anyway!
C'mon Trent we do love you....... we really do but I feel that you are channeling your inner Ted Lasso (The Roosters way sounds a lot like Total football for those of you that watch the show).
Fully utilise our reserves, consider if we have the correct staff to play Roosters football, bring Walker back in within 3 weeks and put Suaalii back where he plays best.

Sam Walker was handed a 'poisoned chalice'...according to the Daily Tele today...and has now been punted to reserve grade at his club.
Oh well, as Ned Kelly said standing at the gallows, "such is life".
Sam has plenty of company in the 'poisoned chalice' stakes.

Kyle Flanagan at his club, now in reserve grade...maybe have to go to England to salvage his career.

Boom young halves...Toby Sexton, Titans...Jake Clifford, Cowboys...Brock Lamb, Bro
die Croft (last year's Man of Steel at Salford), Ash Taylor, Tim Smith (2005 Dally M Rookie of the Year), Anthony Milford (upstaged now by another boom teenager Isaiya Katoa).

Cleary's goalkicking success rate is 60%.
Sam Walker's is 73%.

Cannot win a gf without an organizer in the halves. Usually an organizing halfback and a running 5/8 are what is needed. I have hopes that Walker can learn to run the team and suspect he was dropped for his failure to do so in our last 2 losses.

There are no wing prospects in reserves.

Isn't Pauga meant to be a gun? Admittedly, I don't watch much Cup.
