The way the game has changed and is getting faster , the guy I would bring back and use him off the bench in games would be Dufty ..... The guys got speed to burn , and if used right would be an impact player ...... Don't forget that he was our top try scorer , most line breaks and try assists , better than our Superstar 7 ....... Have watched a few videos of him in the UK and he is scoring some great try's ...... Surly a coach that knows the game can utilise his attacking ability in the modern game ......

Great attacking ability but defense was his achilles heel.

Flanno should be taking a look at this guy if we piss off Hunt. Super impressive. Not sure why the Roosters let him go.

Lam is nippy, has vision, good footwork, ball skills and is not a glory seeker. Five assets missing from the disloyal sooks resume. A Sydney boy too tho he does play for his dad's nation PNG.

Yes but use him off the bench , around the ruck tired players ...... If I was coaching , like I said the game has got that quick , I would know how and when to use him .... https://www.google.com/search?q=duf...ate=ive&vld=cid:1e6dc649,vid:TaGVNYslWBA,st:0

I agree 100%. Problem is, which elite player is on the market now?
Eric

To play fullback? To me Sloan is Dufty 2.0 with just a little more ability.

No off the bench , impact player , Sloan is IMO nowhere near Dufty in attack ...... https://www.codesports.com.au/nrl/e...league/video/42f91646b4e97ad7ff53f6106db22e3e

I'll buy him severely overpriced beer at the airport to send him on his way.

If he could come on to play hooker for at least 15~20min, that would be a good move. But do you think he can?

Yep he can come on at the right times in a few positions , he can ball play as well .....

Good old Benny Hunt has really burned his bridges down there. So it seems from afar anyway.

Yep , But used right , will be much better than we have now ..... Attacking player ....... Not there to make tackles , if he has to then the rest of the team is not doing their job .......But can't tackle.

There is no reason he can't learn to tackle. But to come on at hooker and tackle as he does now would be a disaster.

As you say can be taught a few things , and like I say used at the right time and can move to the flanks in defense his main roll when on , would be to attack , Don't be surprised if another NRL team do bring him back ......

I think Musgrove might have been sent on his way for reasons other than form or ability. At least form on the field. I think form off the field is his biggest problem.

Don't they say something like, 'tackling is 90% commitment'? I think it's true. No way anyone has made it to first grade without knowing tackling techniques.
