  True Parra fan my arze - all we have to do is win all our remaining games and defeat the byes and we will be comfortably in the top 8.

  Fecking ORF SEEZUN MALADY is rampant.

  Nothing will change. It's not like we have a few superstars out injured - Hayne may not be here, Mannah is a benchie and Brown was involved in our losses through the earlier part of the season.
  
  Jnr alone won't change anything. So get ready for another bottom 4 finish.
  
  We need a complete rebuild and a fresh start to become winners again, and that won't happen under this current set up

  I think they can turn it around if they do a few things. Firstly we need to bring in a new coach. BA has had his time and done Ok, however, he peaked last year with a top 4 finish and I don’t see that happening again with him as coach. There are a few alternatives. Hasler, Toovey, Maguire and Bennett if he becomes available. Secondly, we desperately need a hooker that can run from dummy half. King and kaysa are not the answer. We also need to sign another big bopper in the front row. Nathan Davis needs to be moved into first grade and Norman needs to be moved on if possible. Blood Saelmon and look at signing someone like Blake Austin. Also bring in a football manager ffs. Then we might have a chance.

  Our problem it is always a different player having a bad game every week. It's why one week you have people saying drop Norman and the next Moses. It's why I have been yelling at the TV to drop Jennings in the heat of the moment. But this is the same Jennings that had a huge role in why Moses was able to play last year. What has changed? Well... it would be easy to blame it on losing a winger, but that would be an easy out. It would be easy to blame the refs, but that too would be only part of the problem and only explain some of the loses. It would be easy to blame injuries, but that would difficult considering most clubs get injuries and the fact we had pretty much the full squad against Manly.
  
  Some obvious negatives, 1 - long kicking game, 2 - kick chase.
  
  Some positive things I have noticed. Alvaro is getting better and looks very very close to adding an offload to his game. Gower is playing better than he ever has. That's about it.
  
  Anyway, so what is the problem. Who knows. Luck or rather lack thereof? Will next year be any different. Seriously I wouldn't be surprised if we finish last next year or made the top four again.

  Knights only won a few games last year and look at them now. Why? a complete team re-build by signing all those Roosters players, etc.....Tigers were in  a similar position. Both teams recruited very well for this season and we must do the same for next year.
