"Agreed Chiefy. Our depth is our strength, at least in the pack."
"I don't think Ryles will lose any sleep on this. He knows exactly how we stack up to opposition forward packs. The good thing is that we have a few young forwards who could really take a step up this year, so anything is possible."
"Pretty fair ranking regarding the Eels, although we have more depth then other clubs which isn't included in the rating
Putting Roosters at first is laughable, Broncos have the best pack in the comp "

"We have more depth than most other clubs. The fact that they didn't even mention Moretti, Guymer or Doorey shows our advantage "
"I think its the case. Parra had to take it court as Lomax notified them he intended to ignore the conditions of his contract and sign with Melbourne."
"The 'experts' always big note the Roosters. Expect them to fight hard for bottom half of the 8."

"In Lomaxs mins he has little to lose and a lot to gain by trying his luck.
R360 didn't happen, rugby has offered him a fraction of what he was on in the NRL. The dude is shellshocked by how quickly his life has gone from on top of the world to…"

"He's done but if some team dumb enough is out there think they can get something out of him good luck.I'd hold the door open for him to leave if we got something in return red carpet roll the club would have fleeced whomever made this deal."
"If it involves a chance to get more money could be surprised."
"I have seen no evidence that Matto CAN still perform, for any reason...it's in the past"
"Though Hannay might like the experience of Matto. Move Tino to Prop and Matto at Lock. Plus Matto is off-contract, bloke will perform to get one more deal."
"As is always the case. Human nature. There is a chance that Melbourne just drop off."

"I'd argue that nobody wants Lomax except for Melbourne who are desperate for short-term acquisitions. "

ANY MORE SIGNINGS???
I've been frustrated recently about the work we have been doing in the open market. Jonah's alright for a year and JDB is solid but he's getting old. I feel we need more in the forwards and some a replacement outside back. All I have seen is links…

Cannot see why not, but unfortunately the battling line looks as fragile as poppa's hips!lol it appears it could be a tough summer
Nothing wrong with my hips Mickey. It what hangs off them thats a bit wobbly!
Please no pics pop's!lol Keep it PG.
In the absence of 'experts' in the field I'd think the batsmen at the top of the order need to book a bulk visit to a good shrink. The fog and uncertainty need to expelled so they can play once again assured. Only Travis, Marsh and Carey are currently mentally fit to play a role in the test team. India has a dynamic bowling group, but they're aided large by the meek effort of some of our batters.
Hope you're right Mick, I always look to our cricket team to take my mind away from the o'rf season. If there's no bounce back from them, my only back-up is the Thunder.
Yeah RJ, cricket is a great game takes our minds off footy for while but now its seems NRL is 365 day business - all it takes is a great knock or great partnership and it can turn a series
They need a talk from Steve Waugh. Learn what it takes for the mental disintegration of your opponents. To do that, you have to be completely switched on and focussed yourself.
The lack of red ball cricket has also not helped. Where is the Sheffield Shield? That's supposed to produce Test Cricketers, but all we have seen is T20 and a few one-dayers.
Team overall is getting too old and the current state of Shield cricket is uninspiring.
We are on the decline, unless a few unexpected youngsters jump out of the ground.
The bowlers tend to be pretty good game to game but the batters (ex Head) are basically flat track bullies.
Khawaja (38) should be pensioned off. Labuschagne (30) is hopelessly out of form. Smith (35) seems to be past it. Starc (34) is all over the shop innings to innings. Lyon (37) is not ever going to do a Warne and rip thru a team. Hazlewood (33) is good but he is no McGrath. Cummins (31) is inconsistent but generally good.
We miss Green but also need a genuine bowling all-rounder who can be our Flintoff, Pollock etc. I thought Cummins might turn into that but his batting is getting worse.
My opinion only and I am sure others will have different thoughts.
Have to agree with everything you've said Badger. Depressing but true. Also we can't continually bowl using the seam while the blokes from the Sub-Continent excell in that manner.
