Simple choice: Do we want to blood guys like Papali’i now and accept a higher risk of finishing last — or keep Dyldio Brown at 6, which gives us a slightly better shot at scraping into 13th to 16th?
For mine, Ryles is making the right call. If we’re chasing a recognised five-eighth but don’t land one, and Dylan stays at halfback, then Joash Papali’i has to debut at 6 in Round 1 next year — with zero first-grade experience. That’s a big ask.
I say stuff the spoon. If you're worried about your mates giving it to you for finishing last, hit the gym, put on 20 pounds of biceps and be ready to cop it. Because for the long-term health of the club, we need to get reps into our development players now — not when it's too late.
Man up and stop worrying about finishing last because cry babies can't cope it and can't sleep at night worrying about absolute bs and writing bs blogs about who'll win it.
And why has Sandon Smith been dropped to nsw cup by the Roosters and they've promoted old man Townsend? Is he on the way out?

Do you really think he cares? It's about money to most of these guys. Winning is a bonus.
I'm with you on this Chiefy. I'm still believing that we avoid the spoon this year no matter what.
should be doing everything to win this rebuild blooding youth is a excuse
Your being generous saying having brown gives us a slightly better chance, let's stop kidding ourselves Newcastle have done us a bloody huge favour! DB is horrendous and we have a better chance without him we no what we get with DB and it's dog shit putting another player in actually gives us a chance.
