i have posted this before. in 2017 and nothing has changed in 18
all the other teams have improved their rosters except the eels . we lost semi and did not replace him with someone with at least s.o.o class hayne an ok signing salmon has wraps but unproven as yet.evans and williams wenty class .every club gets a list of what players are available
but i guess the postman missed us . ba must have been of the opinion that after making top 4 no need to sign quality just a couple of palookas for wenty in case some of our star (sic) forwards are out of action .parra is one of the few clubs maybe the only club with not 1 player who is likely to play s.o.o . we have 2 very rough chances in brown and moses and i mean very rough.parra players are the most overated in the competition and if ba cannot see this then he is not the coach to take us to the next level.we are so far behind the sharks/the storm /the roosters/cowboys as far as recruitment is concerned we are a joke .the supporters can see this why can:t ba and co.if my thoughts are if things don:t improve changes must be made

A couple of points of view,
1/ The first is Hayne has to stop talking to Norman and Moses at every stoppage of play, they are the orchestra of the team and done well with that last year. Hayne just needs to concentrate on his own game/position.
2/I noticed that In 2017 Bevan was best at wing both in attack and defensively, so moving him there should be a priority.
3/ Move either Hoffman or Smith to full back until such time Gutherson returns.
4/Just run through the middle and stop with this sideways running crap, it just doesn’t work.
He was never brought into the side as a half, what’s more he doesn’t hold a candle to either Norman or Moses as a half.
Even BA has said Hayne has good vision for seeing opportunities in the field. Yes, Moses and Norman are and should be the generals, but I’d prefer our experienced players to be talking rather than what we saw against Manly. Chips were down and you could have heard a pin drop in the Parra line at breaks in play. It would be much better if the team was communicating with each other
