Wardell never really found his feet, although was starting to get there.
Randall isn't a loss.
I'd like to see us sign some decent 9 cover though. I feel we're an injury away from lacking depth.
He (and their entire attack) look so much better when he runs the ball.Honeysett wrote:Lichaa wouldn't be too bad like you said if we can get him for cheap.
He could have been hindering by Des Hasler's gameplan so he might come good. Worth a crack for cheap money.

Would love to get him to play 6 at newie. Lamb and Moylan could be a pretty decent partnership IMO.
Watson can play centre or FB. Ponga can play FB/Wing, or come from the bench - the same way Barba did early on in his career.
Also a guy I would like us to target is Edrick Lee. Surely he would get a jersey for Newcastle next year, wouldnt be asking too much at this point in his career too.
I really hope that the signature of Aiden Guerra has not cost us Fitzgibbon. That guy is a fucking weapon.
Pieman wrote:Very happy we retained Fitz. The guy is awesome. Our back row is looking really good for next year - Fitz, Sione, Barnett, Buhrer, Guerra, Jacob Saifiti, yates, stone. Jeez.. some good quality young players there, we are bound to lose a couple. The Guerra signing might really come back to bite us.
Next season, maybe Buhrer continues to start at hooker, Jacob saifiti spends more time in the front row and Sione spends more time at centre. That was we have Guerra, Fitz, Barnett starting in the back row, with Barnett spending a bit of time at front row throughout the game? In saying that, when he isnt injured or off for a HIA Sione is great in the back row, so who knows.

There is prob a couple of signings left in us as well before the next year begins. We are actually pretty skint outside backs which is usually the opposite at newie. Still light on front rowers too. I wonder what % the dogs are willing to pay to get rid of the morris twins. If we could get them cheap then they could be a good experienced left hand edge for us for a year or so.
I woud like us to go after Liam Knight, I think he is at the raiders now. Was an excellent junior player.
Things are looking good for the knights next season. At least now too - if Ponga is a disaster (im sure he wont be but he will have his teething issues), we have Watson.
Whats the record for wooden spoons in a row? Surely the Knights are up there with a hatty.Ice wrote:
They sure are, you should be a chance of avoiding the spoon.

At least we have won a comp throughout this time which a lot of clubs haven't done. Its especially amazing that we won one with some clubs being able to "legally" spend a shit tonne more money on their rosters than other clubs
