The primary issue:
Our middle forwards being unfit and the incorrect body shapes for the new rules. Lodge and Ofahengaue will likely be out of the NRL within a few years, you can't have these lumbering forwards who are unable to get up and play the ball fast or run on to the ball at speed. They're also running out of gas within 10-15 minutes which is weakening our defensive line.
If we want to turn the season around we need to make some hard decisions when it comes to our forwards. Lodge and Ofahengaue have to go, first and foremost. Flegler and Pangai need to improve their match fitness greatly. Haas & Carrigan are the only 2 middle forwards on the roster at the moment I believe are up to the speed of the game.
