Unrelated but looking on Twitter some great moments at the Rob Burrow marathon today.

Well done to all involved. Fantastic to see Luke Burgess, Matt Adamson and all the others turn out to run

Tetevano is on about £200k a year, so he has to go to free up a marquee spot or stay with a big pay cut. Not sure Fusitua will ever be really fit again, so I’d let him go too, agree about Donaldson. Bentley was really good at end of last season but not at that level yet this year. I would be surprised if he got a gig in the NRL, but who knows. Agree keep if we can.
If we also lose Walters, Tindall and Lisone plus Leemjng has gone, that’s a lot of players to replace before Austin and Sezer come into play.
I’d keep Austin and see how it goes with Sezer. It I’m guessing Sezer will be replaced.

Tetavano been a complete waste if Money and Quota spot wouldn’t pre sign him for free.

Don’t know why people bag Donaldson, he’s not here to be a world beater he was always a dependable squad filler and he has been great value in that role, better than high value others who are not performing.

Until the next time we lose and you knee jerk back to Smith out

No. I’ve been consistently Smith out despite wins. The knee-jerk is being Smith in after a win. Not vice versa.

I actually find it more annoying that there is clearly some quality in this squad but they can only perform once every 3 games for 40 minutes. That's pretty concerning IMO.

Stop it.
You'll get told off for being negative thinking like that....

It’s definitely a concern and Smith needs to sort it if we are to compete for grand finals again or even to get a shot at getting there.

The optimism rose after a similar second half turnaround v catalan after and awful first half. The following week we failed to show up against KR. What will Saturday hold...

Lisone could leave too.

Yep, good point. Missed him.
Very likely by the looks of things.

Just wondering, now that we’ve fallen at the first hurdle in the cup this year, what are people expecting and what do you consider to be acceptable to continue with the current coaching team?

Enough consistency make top 4 while continuing to have the confidence and flair to beat anyone in a one off game.
