It was clear toeven Stevie wander we lacked forward lastnight, and with Ryles clering the decks & with the possability of JR retiringat the end of 25 or 26
WE need Forward
we need to be aggresive big forwards
who do we get ? who do we target ?
I dont think Guymer is a 2nd rower (Im not even sure he is a footballer)
Im starting to realy like Kautoga and with more football in him the better he will get
Williams i dont think is a starter
Re-sign Walker for 2 more years past his current deal

Roosters best Prop is Naufahu Whyte. They will not offload him but we could offer him a bucket load to leave. They have Collins and Leniu on big money, also Va'a in lower grades they might not be able to match.
Pahulu, Adam Elliot, Matamua, Garlick, Fifita, Lisati.
Marzhew, Galvin, Te Maire Martin, Gordon, Keighran.
Most of those are players that won't help much to be fair. We have a lot of cap space we should make bigger splashes.
Garlick, Matamua, Lasati are all bit players we have enough of those. Elliott is fine for experience but can get better. Pahulu I don't mind actually. If we cannot get Galvin, Martin not too bad of a stop gap.
Keighran is like French, there is a reason they are doing well in SL. Quality is not there like in NRL.
We have the coin to make big signings, like in 2016 when we got Foran, Jennings, Gordon and Scott. Granted Foran was the draw but getting Galvin will help our recruitment
Kautoga is a frustrating player as defensively he can make good contact, he gets through some work but also he is one of the dopiest players i have seen play. He has a killer offload and finally saw it, if he is to stay in FG for future that offload needs to be more apparent and is a sign of that growing with FG as the game slows down and get softer.
Williams i agree is better suited as that bench forward that sures everything up. Guymer seems to have support of Ryles, who mentioned him in his presser as one who is improving. Compared to his debut he is a different player and not sure what is going on but middle might be better for him for now, a stint in Cup particularly.
LB thing for me is with Kautoga was very physical in attack. Since then he doesn't look like busting a tackle or a grape for that matter. We need a change of middles this week.
The eels pack was absolultey dominated on Thursday. If it wasn't for Mitch's kicking game, they would not have been in the game.
Our go forward is really lacking at the moment.
Paulo is our only specialist front rower.
Surely the club is planning for a big signing in the forwards for next seaon.
I think Guymer will come good, he just needs more NRL time.
Not sure i like the fact that Kautoga is getting more game time than Hopgood.
To get 12m and 14 m in a set of 6 is disgraceful. Samrani should come in for Guymer. How many spots do we have left? We need at least 1 new middle to replace tuivita.
Guymer back to reserve grade, Samrami 11, Bring in a prop.
Even though he is raw I would start samrani at 12, we have nothing to lose really and he already looks better there than anyone else we have used this year.
