I understand there's been alot of talk about us shopping Norman but after watching last night and the last few weeks I would love to see the 2 mentioned if they could actually mend there ways and actually be the pair that they both have looked like end of 2017 and in parts of this year.
Norman too me tonight showed in the defensive part of his game too me has been very good.When he gets caught inside he pushes out to help his outsides and very rarely leaves them posted.Also his pressure pushing up on the sweep player in attack caused alot of problems for the Dragons and there attack was slowed alot by it.
To me if we can get that platform for these two to launch off on a more consistent basis I still believe we can win with this team with a couple of new faces in the pack.

Agree Coryn But
Norman needs to set a good not bad example club culture wise and needs to focus on footy. If you are being paid close to a million to do a job or to win a premiership you need to be focused on just that job.
Not sure about Moses - he has the talent and is supposed to know his footy.
Yeah the off field stuff is concerning but for me Norman's been probably close to our best and most consistent the last month.
I guess if we are going to let Norman walk he's doing his best with thee audition process for other teams as I think teams looking for a half will be lining up for him.
If it were a choice between Norman and Austin right now I'd take Norman all day.
That last 10mins coincided with Smith coming on the field, coincidence much????
That whole side went to shit when he came on.
Agree totally John & Pops.
My biggest pet peeve though is that last night in the first 10 minutes we got two quick penalties in front and on both occasions Gutho chose to run the ball, on the 2nd occasion it was an obvious call. Had either of those penalties been kicked, certainly one of them had the team 2 up. Saints did that at the first time at the eels end and were 2 in front.
2nd half and the same happened with one good in front penalty give to the eels and again no kick, another 2 points lost, had both options been taken then we win a game we deserved. The captain has to be told in similar positions take the kick, 2 points are better than perhapsers. especially when you have two recognised kickers in the team..
Tad, I tend to agree, I think at this point of his career Gutho is not a 1. Hayne may have lost some pace and the like but he could be a better fullback and Gutho to the centres, where the coach wanted for him in the first place.
Mate you’re the most deluded and comical person I’ve ever seen on 1eyed eel - not even coach comes close.
Campaigns???
Agendas????
Plots???
Fark me dead you’ve got a fascinating imagination if not kind of strange.
So a heap of fans call for a coaches sacking because, HELLO, the team is last on the ladder and you accuse some fans of having agendas. How about just accepting the fact that most on here and in the community at large have had enough of the excuses, enough of the defending and certainly enough of being the laughing stock of the NRL. Is that too hard to comprehend you senile old DUCK?
He could be lifted to the NRL squad as there is now 3 clear spots left and needed to be filled by the 30th
