After three weeks laid up in hospital with nothing to do but watch and listen to footie calls and discussions came up with following.
Ponga is trying much too hard think as highest paid player he must do everything. This is a 17 man team game.
Our outside backs apart from Best, Hunt and Edrich Lee, whose future must be in doubt after two serious arm fractures, is very shallow and we need at least three centres and a couple of wingers.
Kurt Mann was considered below par by me and others, but you have to give the guy credit he is playing his heart out for the team. He has improved the last few games and only Obi knows how much more improvement is in the guy.
Barnett must play lock and Frizell will improve things greatly but Lachie is not firing and his handling has been poor. Sione has done well, Guerra still has a year in him as a bench player.
Front row stocks are good but we have to keep a hooker on the paddock somehow.
The biggest disappointments to me have been our Broncos recruits. Ese'ese has failed to fire now under Bennett, Brown and Obi and a move to the Titans may be the solution to his game. The last three weeks he had dropped the ball within five metres of the line on no less than four occasions, and last weekends drop after the tackle restart was unforgivable. At times the guy seems a little slow in defence and is his reads of play. Moga I think after all his knee problems is well down on confidence and probably due for retirement.
