I'd agree with this. Cusack is a model pro and put in a lot of work, he's got bags of big game experience and should have a good influence over some of the younger players.

Every club needs players like Cusack who can put the hard slog in for 80 minutes and he has the ability to throw some good off-loads out but as stated on here already; players like him need to be balanced in the front row with hard running, tackle busting impact props like Morley, Mason, Kite, etc.

If we sign an impact prop and clear out the likes of Radford (unlikely to happen), King (he's had his day and used up all of his chances) and Dowes (doubtful) then I'm happy; especially is we keep Maloney and develop him for the future.

I guess you don't see the good things that Yak does then? He's the only one in the whole team who'll give you a quick PTB and is solid in defence. He is also quite hard the take down as it usually takes a couple of guys to put him to the ground.

Well, of course, i don't see as many games as you. But if you are happy to see an ageing Aussie taking a significant chunk of salary cap for a fairly minimal return then fine. I can't question your judgement, you're an FC fan, i'm not. But be honest, is this the sort of thing you expect of a grade A licence club?

Grade A off the field
Grade F on the field.

We've improved then?
