It’s a shame we don’t seem to be actively working with Skolars. He feels like a player who might benefit from game time with them as he’s missed quite a bit of the last few seasons and he might do them some good as well.


Our esteemed leader put a huge roadblock in us ever working with Skolars again while he or his kin are running the Broncos

Just seen the highlights of the match. Or to be exact, and in an homage to the team, I gave up after the first half. We scored two good tries but take a look at their first try. Boy does Macani do badly.

I get backlash for it, but keep saying it macanni is dismall in defence, that ball over his head when he is a good 15 mtrs out if position, have seen it so many times this season, its like he has no clue where to position himself as the winger. 3 tries purely down to his lack of awareness

I don't think any of us take joy in singling a player out and he's not the only one who has errors in his game, but I just don't think he has the ability to perform consistently well at this level. The most frustrating part is its basic skills that keep catching him out. Some of the stuff he came up with against York, you'd be frustrated watching U12s do it. He's a great athlete no doubt, but what good is that if you can't do the fundamentals of the game well?

I also don't think it helped having Emmanuel at centre on Sunday and I'm not keen on that particular experiment now it's had a couple of outings. At least Ethan seems that bit more reliable both sides of the ball and can get through a tonne of defensive work.

I'm trying not to hammer the bloke too much, as a player he no doubt wants to be at the highest level possible and we were willing to put a contract in front of him. It must be tough too, knowing you're going to get targeted every game. Ultimately though we need more from his wing slot and I guess that is part of the motivation for brining Whare in.

I guess it also doesn't help him having a coach who as far as we know, has little or no experience of helping a player develope. Danny showed a good coach can lead a fairly average side to good things.

To be fair to him, after a completely anonymous start to last season, and he was by no means the only one, he picked up and was one of the players who drove through that patch of last season that helped us stay up. This season- a mixed bag. I always think top draw winger is a real plus, but we are where we are. If we can’t get them to come to the club ....are any coming through the Academy?
