Let me preface my comment by saying I’m not a fan of Fergo, or easts, however I like the essence of the article. I respect what he does as a player and agree that he was a crucial cog in easts winning the premiership last year. The role of a winger has changed; the elite wingers play as an extra forward. They take the tough carrys from the start of sets when the forwards are regathering themselves. We need to keep in mind they are giving up 10-20kgs in body mass doing so. Yes, Fergo makes errors on occasion but so do all forwards. He has the ability to take those hard hit-ups and backs it up with finishing brilliance, which is rare. The Queenslander in me doesn’t love the man but I agree that he is a huge loss that easts may rue in letting him go.

Fergo is the reason why the Roosters' title defence is stuttering
