Jesus Christ, cut costs somewhere else. Going up in Sixes makes a big difference

The good news is the club knows their error and we can expect goal kicking to be fixed for next season.
Lucas and Manu backrow for next year is orgasmic.
McEwen will make a brilliant middle. Aside from Friz we don't have a high impact middle with power and leg speed. McEwen will add a lot.

Goal kicking is so important, turn 4 into 6, have been very disappointed with our current efforts/results, need to have 2-3 regular kickers hitting the sweet spot, need Ponga to get right and ready for 2027 as with a fully fit side Smith will be on bench. Don’t seem to have a very good goal kicker coming through from Cup or Flegg might have to look outside.
Need to turn those many 4 pointers, Marzhew and Young out wide, to potential 6 pointers

Sandon’s kicking stats this season….looks like the only game poor kicking costs us the victory was against the Roosters when he kicked 3/5 and Walker kicked 3/4 but DCE knocked over a field goal.

Kicking cost us at least 3 games, potentially more
Cost us the Sharks game, no question.
Its hard to measure the impact on games but theres a psychological affect to it, too. Its a huge thing

I reckon Sandon Smith becomes an elite goal kicker when he changes his tee. He is using the tee that Pat Richard’s used for kick offs that you are supposed to stand the ball up right on. No other good kicker in the NRL uses a tee as high as his. I’m sure that’s why he hits so many so poorly.

I was just looking at Sandon’s kicking but you’re right, kicking did cost us in that game. KP’s kicking.

McEwen becoming a quality front rower is a must. Our pack will be so much better balanced.

The unnamed Knights official who said “Jermaine chases contact and loves a collision so why not?” deserves kudos.
I've been trying to say why I think Jermaine should end up as a middle for what seems like a couple of years by talking about his aggression and attitude etc, and that guy clearly articulated the case for him being a middle in 10 off-the-cuff words.

Jermaine would need another 10kgs wouldn't he?
Certainly not

He is pretty much the same weight as JFH, if he gained 2-6kg which didn't affect his mobility it would be great.
Interesting his still 20th man. A late swap into the 19 for winter maybe.

Jermaine could really make his name tonight. Would not surprise me at all if that talk about him loving contact was code for he is starting in the FR. We could really throw them starting Crouch, Frizz and Crokes in the back row. Then Manu off the bench to go God Mode. I have a feeling Justin has plans to change things up significantly cos he can.

I was thinking the same, 2 weeks may be enough to make him ok at it.
