| I’m starting to question the signing of ECW.
Surely we had the chance to bring in a player of quality in a position we needed added strength?
All we seem to have done is bring in a quota back to play in the reserves, when it looks like Lumb and Edgell are the preferred options to replace Sivo.
If we are not intending to use ECW in the matchday 13 most weeks then what was the point of signing him as we are effectively wasting the quota spot that became free on losing Sivo, when it would have been better used brining in another forward?
It’s looking more and more of an odd decision for me.
IF there was no one of real quality available then don’t use the quota spot for the sake of using it, wait until mid season when some players often become available from overseas

| Thought we matched them, and for large parts, got the better of them, in the physical battle.
Big difference was the intelligence.
Sam Lisone, already been highlighted, James McDonnell with yet another stupid, pointless PTB penalty, deep in their territory, he does it every game, and its bloody infuriating.
Overall though, thought it was a good battle, unfortunately we seem to be cursed with idiotic moments and no attacking structure

| It seems that we always bemoan the lack of attacking structure no matter who the coach is. The same complaints were made when McClelland, McDermott, Agar, and Rohan were all here. It makes you wonder if it's actually primarily a coaching issue.

| I feel sorry for BA - he has come from a competition/culture of professionalism. Where players focus on core attributes of fitness and basic skills.
Sadly the players in the SL don't have these attributes. Week after week we see players miss tackles drop balls show a distinct inability to run practiced plays and run out of gas early.
It is no surprise that England have improved with the addition of more NRL players. Until we have more competition for places and a stronger player pool this apathy will continue. Players know they will get picked every week regardless of how fit they are or how well they play
The standards of skill and fitness in SL are shocking and when compared to the NRL - where BA has previously worked - it is a pale shadow of the latter. It is no shock how few SL raised players are wanted and are successful in the NRL

| Lisone has been a massive let down, was hoping for the next Kylie , got the next Feather instead.
I know I and others keep saying it but we really need a big meter munching wrecking ball prop. That would allow one of Jenkins or Palasia to move to back row with Gannon / Mcdonnell/ Bentley etc.
We could have the world's best HBs abd we would still not make a difference until we can get those hard yards abd quick PTBs going

| It's a bit odd that the rest of the squad looks fitter compared to last year yet Lasagne looks less fit. He must've spent all preseason hiding in one of the laundry bags.
