  I like Moeroa, hasn't quite had the impact he did last year but maybe that's because he was new and shinney. Hope he has a good pre season and get rid of his injuries.

  Tepai is one of a number of the squad playing busted. Wicks, Taka and Choc have been the most obvious but they're not on their own. Wicks and Chocolate have battled on until they couldn't avoid operations. These blokes have been touching it out and to be honest our injury list could easily be longer.

  I genuinely fear that we're not managing teps properly we seriously should consider resting him for the rest of the season

    Mack, I hear that he is heading to the middle. As for his form, he is a very young NRL forward. He's played much more time on the field than was originally planned. It's not ideal but he's learning about being tough. It will stand him in good stead for his move to the middle.

    He needs to stay out wide. He's got all the skills to be one of the most damaging wide ball runners. Let's not cut his career short like they did Hindmarsh. Keep him out wide.

  With our cap situation are we able to have Tep on the sidelines? If we weren't in such significant drama I'd say he would have played 70% of the games he's played this year.

    P.s I think we have one of the best front-row rotations if we move Tep there. Good go-forward whilst also being very strong defensively. Would hold down the middle very well alongside Choc and whoever we go with on the bench.

  I agree Efl. He's got too much talent to be wasted as a battering ram. I'd like to see him strip off 5kilos and play out wider. I suspect the big increase he wacked on over last summer may have been caused by his eyes being on the next olympics. Long term if he drops weight we can only benefit.

  the reason why he is playing average this year is because of his shoulder, ever since round 2 he has had a busted shoulder! that is the one the he "hit" with and makes his tackles. I agree RJ, i would like to see him strip off 5kg and play as more as a wide second rower like he was last year hitting the holes and gaps.
