    lol. Well it's the only reason I can find for signing him. Yet another average journeyman Aussie in the squad. :wallbash:

    Most of the 'journeyman Aussies' the Warriors sign are really stupid signings but I actually think that one's okay tbh, as long as he doesn't fall inside the top 17 contracts (which I doubt he will). Provides insurances in case Lolohea doesn't work out in the halves or Johnson breaks again and has a lot of experience and professionalism to pass on to players like Lino and Lolohea himself. Blokes like Wright were just failures at the top level, and guys like Hoffman and Nielsen were picked up on too much money for what they were, but Robson on an 18-25 deal is a decent get IMO.

    The team will probably be better with Robson at 7 and Johnson 6 anyway honestly. Because Luke is a basketcase and RTS doesn't really even pass.

    Luke will be a gun for us. Will feel at home away and glad to have escaped Australia. Having less Australians to deal with will be good for him.

    RTS doesn't have to pass when he makes 7000 meters in the season.

    RTS showed the developments of a passing game at the back end of this season.

    18 linebreak Assists & 16 try Assists is nothing to sneeze at. He'll never be a great ball player but he can draw and pass which all you really need from your fullback chiming in on a backline movement.

    Yeah RTS is no Hayne but he's no Dugan either. I think he's already reached Brett Stewart levels of ball-playing which is fine if your team has creativity in other areas, and he'll probably get better too.

    Was having an argument with someone on the Roosters forum about Josh Dugan, went back over the stats and figure out:

    In the last 5 years Josh Dugan has 12 try Assists & 11 linebreak Assits, which averages out to be just above 2 try assists & 2 linebreak assists a season.

  9. Toolman TR Man

    RTS has the potential to make your coconut forwards look like world beaters if they can back him up with a second player who can produce a fast play of the ball and get the set truly rolling.

    Yeah I really do not like Josh Dugan as a fullback. I think he can be a pretty strong right centre but that's abut it as a marquee plater these days/

    I reckon almost all of those try assists either came from making a clean breaking and then finding a support player or putting in a shitty little grubber too.

    Bird re-signing with Cronulla and apparently a move to fullback? Surely not with Barba & Holmes there.....

  20. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    You'd think the best move would be Bird to the centres and Holmes to fullback
