Let's be fair dinkum here if we want to be successful and win a comp any time soon.
Lets assume we can get some new management and a coach for starters. We have to start at the top.
The top teams don't put up with this shit. Arthur and O'Neill must go immediately.
We need to get rid of Junior, Gutho, our hookers and outside backs except Russell and Pennisi.
The first 2 take up all but 2 million and are simply not worth it . Sorry but true.
Upgrade Hopgood and start looking for a few PNG or FIJIAN outside backs.
Make some hard decisions now or nothing changes.

How do we get rid of Gutho and Paulo ? Whilst I'm all for a total cleanout , a magical coach and a head of football that doesn't have head of the supermarket deli on his resume , it's not a realistic dream when you have contracts at play. We saw Ricky Stuart do this once and it fucked us for years .
Sounds like a plan to send us back to the ice ages. It might be needed.
Gutho should be in the team somewhere. Paulo should be sent to the bench and downgraded to $350,000.
Yep he's been piss poor this year and a passenger. On the money he's on we can't afford passengers.
Paulo and matto. I would be trying to move matterson on, his selfish decision to take the suspension over the fine plus a considerable drop off in form this year and the fact we have hopgood and moretti to play lock.
Never understood why Matterson did that. He is on $600,000 a season and the fine was $4000 but he didn't want to pay it. If it were me, I would of said "Cash or Card". Just pay the thing.
You seen Mattos new car, it stops on a dime and picks it up.
Matto would score a try in 'Try July' and think doing a celebration wins him 10k instead of going to charity.
Why do you think he set up the Ryan Matterson Foundation mate ?
I heard Mattos booked himself to get circumcised in the off-season, because he's keen to get 20% off.
