"Very fair assessment Badger "
"Nah, he's too old and injury prone.
Honestly... why does this club have such trouble developing wingers? It's the position we are absolute garbage at getting right. I don't rate any of the reserve grade wingers coming up, and we're not bringing…"

"Good player but no thanks; and we have more youth to come in."
"If we needed experience and a place holder til a junior is ready then sure. But we are not in that position. We need ready made players to start and for a long time."
"as stated by others past his best, hasn't been the same when left the chooks. So no thanks, would rather promote a junior and perservere getting them up to scratch."
"Fair enough Khalif but you know you inspired me to write what I did and for many of the unwashed on here I hope they learnt some history about our greatest ever player!"
"No thanks, wouldn't be terrible but way, way past his best. Go younger."
"He will go to Roosters until Nawaqanitawase is back after WC and Tupou more likely retiring so need 2 Wingers. They have Garrick, RTS could be other. He is 34 next year, we can look elsewhere for backline.

"There should only be 2 nominees - Thornett and Hayne.
Both great in their own way but The Mayor was easily the better fullback.
Hayne could earn a spot as utility off the bench due to him being fantastic in other positions.
Taylor, along with Levy,…"

"My typo, Pops
Should have read "average backline" which is what Parra had at the time despite great forwards. He made those guys look really good at times..
As you say, his international record was superb.
I think we are saying the same thing, he…"

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.
