I'll probably get some flack for this but i chose the option for scanning the NRL and feeder comps...
Reasons being...
The club has done well on the field this year and could still finish 4th - in a 14 team league, that would be fantastic for the club.
To sustain and improve on such, is there a young english stand off, who is AVAILABLE, and realistically good enough to play week in week out and sustain and improve on potentially a top 4 place?
A realists answer would be no....
Grix cannot get a regular spot for us at 6 and he has had plenty of chances, and it looks like he is huddersfield bound....
Brough, is certainly good enough, but his future at the club beyond this season is still in doubt.
Obst, is a good player, but my personal view is that he is a better number 9 than 6. Id keep obst, but spell him at 9 with newton.
Southernwood....is he capable of outplaying the likes of burrow, pryce and dobson week in week out?!
