Signing of T-Rex has suddenly become crucial

Interested to know peoples thoughts on the importance of getting Williams back. I’m guessing at the time his signing was probably a depth purchase at best. Suddenly I reckon he might be our one and only saviour for our forward woes. Last week was telling in that for the first time all season our forwards dominated when Williams was on the paddock.He could be the ‘big bopper’ we didn’t spend big bucks on in the off season. Can he play 60-80 minutes?I think he needs to start. Thoughts?

  • When Tony Williams is your best forward then you know you have a serious problem. If only BA could realise that the players he has so much faith in are not nearly as good as he thinks they are.

  • Win u games that big fella ... off the bench if used right
  • Trex and Kenny off the bench, bring on the energy and power for the last 15-20 of each half and the more they work with Moses the better we will get especially when we get bevo, Jarryd and the guth back. We just need to be close enough and we’ll be right..

    • Edwards is better off the bench as impact player, he and Trex come at same time

    • Great pack best available there.
    • That's a very small front row cap. 

    • taka or niukore are not middle forwards - they are edge forwards at best

    • Maybe more like

      8. Brown

      9. Kritchard

      10. Mannah

      11. Ma'u

      12. Moeroa

      13. Terepo

      14. Williams (edge) 

      15. Alvaro (middle)

      16. Kedwards (edge)

      17. Stromquist/Matagi (middle)

      The last 3 rounds we pretty much kept pace until Mannah and Alvaro were replaced about the 20min mark - the floodgate opened. Only when they came back on, did things tighten up a bit.

  • Dud signing for mine. This year only. Not to be re-signd.

    Look at how the dragons have built their pack full of stars who can play on for another 5 - 8 years Frizzell Debelin Vaugn Sims ect. They are the player a club can be built around.

    Williams is not a savior he won't save anything. Tires easily especially in defense.
    Good for 17 only
    • Yep chief you and Alan should meet around the back of the building to relieve one another's blood pressure.

"The Achillies is an extension of the calf muscle and as such any surgery can have consequences, 3 months is conservative if it is a tear. Someone who's game is built around speed and jumping can have all sorts of problems.
